Description: The table editor of the Query Browser/Administrator does not list the newer storage engines including Archive, BLACKHOLE, etc. How to repeat: Open the table editor from within the Query Browser by right-clicking on a table and choosing edit table. Switch to Table Options tab. Look for Archive Storage Engine. Suggested fix: Add Archive and Blackhole to list of storage engines used to populate list. Better: Enumerage the results of SHOW STORAGE ENGINES: +------------+---------+-------------------------------------------------------- --------+ | Engine | Support | Comment | +------------+---------+-------------------------------------------------------- --------+ | MyISAM | YES | Default engine as of MySQL 3.23 with great performance | | MEMORY | YES | Hash based, stored in memory, useful for temporary tabl es | | InnoDB | DEFAULT | Supports transactions, row-level locking, and foreign k eys | | BerkeleyDB | NO | Supports transactions and page-level locking | | BLACKHOLE | NO | /dev/null storage engine (anything you write to it disa ppears) | | EXAMPLE | NO | Example storage engine | | ARCHIVE | YES | Archive storage engine | | CSV | NO | CSV storage engine | | ndbcluster | NO | Clustered, fault-tolerant, memory-based tables | | FEDERATED | NO | Federated MySQL storage engine | | MRG_MYISAM | YES | Collection of identical MyISAM tables | | ISAM | NO | Obsolete storage engine | +------------+---------+-------------------------------------------------------- --------+ 12 rows in set (0.00 sec) mysql> List any storage engines where Support = YES using either a stored description or the contents of the Comment column. Set the default storage engine to whichever storage engine is listed as DEFAULT in the SHOW STORAGE ENGINES output.
