    Hi :)

    It will be great if we can have an addon for converting easy all MyISAM tables from a specific DB to InnoDB :)


    Thanks

    Unfortunately, such conversions need the user to understand the differences, issues and gotchas of InnoDB vs MyISAM as not all tables can easily be converted or should be converted depending on the the table structure. This is where experience with MySQL comes in.

    I use HeidiSQL on windows if I don't want to use command line from linux. Change or convert tables is also possible with that tool. I use it with a SSH tunnel via my SSH terminal.
