MySQL innodb plugin

Recently I've spent hours compiling MySQL 5.1.22 and trying to get my cent0s configured for innodb and partitioning. I tried every imaginable way to run configure, use different plugins, etc.

I messed with this forever, then finally looked at the config options, and sure enough, the ./configure expects innobase, not innodb as the plugin name:

On MySQL 5.1, ./configure expects a different parameter:

$ ./configure –with-plugins=innobase
