NAME¶
mysql_fix_extensions - normalize table file name extensions
SYNOPSIS¶
mysql_fix_extensions
data_dir
DESCRIPTION¶
mysql_fix_extensions converts the extensions for MyISAM (or ISAM) table
files to their canonical forms. It looks for files with extensions matching
any lettercase variant of .frm, .myd, .myi, .isd, and .ism and renames them to
have extensions of .frm, .MYD, .MYI, .ISD, and .ISM, respectively. This can be
useful after transferring the files from a system with case-insensitive file
names (such as Windows) to a system with case-sensitive file names.
Invoke
mysql_fix_extensions like this, where
data_dir is the path
name to the MySQL data directory.
shell> mysql_fix_extensions data_dir
