Hello everyone, I'm having a problem installing the innoDB plugin on the 1.7.1 version (was having the same problem on version 1.7.0)

I download and tried both 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 dlls from http://www.innodb.com/innodb_plugin/download/ but when I try to install them using

Code: Select all
INSTALL PLUGIN INNODB SONAME 'ha_innodb.dll';


I receive the following error

Code: Select all
mysql> INSTALL PLUGIN INNODB SONAME 'ha_innodb.dll';
ERROR 1126 (HY000): Can't open shared library 'C:/xampp/mysql/plugins/ha_innodb.dll' (errno: 2 )


I tried looking both on the mysql forums and on google, but couldn't find anything, anyone have any advice? I did everything as needed. Disabled innoDB on boot (using the system variable) confirmed innodb was not active and tried the install.

xampp\mysql\bin\my.ini file contains the innoDB configuration settings, did you need to install the innoDB plugin?
