Minimum Mysql Install on Windows

Minimum Mysql Install on Windows

am 20.01.2005 03:16:27 von Mark Webber

I just installed mysql 4.0.23 on windows for embedded project that I am
working on. Due to memory constraints, I have trimmed down the installed
files and all seems to be fine.
My current file strucure is as follows:

Mysql
-bin
-data
-embedded
-include
-lib
-scripts
-share

Are there any further files or folders above that can be safely deleted.

Thanks

What is the purpose of the MySQL files on your machine? If its suppose
to run only as a server, you could safely delete all binaries related
to the client (including the console, mysqldump, mysqlimport, check,
show, watch... at least I did so for one of my servers and never
really had trouble). If you're running your db without any innodb
table, you can disable (use skip-innodb at the .ini) and delete any
files related to it at the "data" folder. I believe that after that,
the only folder you can delete is the "scripts" folder, as its more
related to corrections for some errors, not really important.

That's it (works for me), hope that helps,
