如何使用mysql.server start指定启动选项

Question

I am using mariadb, and mysql.server start I want to specify a start up option as given in the mariadb documentation:

innodb_page_size=4k

however, when I try:

mysql.server start --innodb_page_size=4k

this doesn't work I also tried to put innodb_page_size in my.cnf under the [mysqld] tag, and this also resulted in a error when I tried to startup the mysql server.

Where exactly can I specify these startup options?

Answer 1

You have mistyped the option. Indeed for Mysql/MariaDB each option has a name for the command line's startup options, and the my.cnf configuration file

• use --innodb-page-size for passing the option from the command line
• use innodb_page_size for passing the option from my.cnf configuration file

Options taken from mysql 5.7 version's documentation .

Best regards.
