MySQL The innodb_system data file 'ibdata1' must be writable

Postby KijoSenzo » 11. April 2020 21:11

I wanted to make my own wiki for my own personal use and carry it around on an external drive. I am using Windows 10.

I installed XAMPP portable to my external drive and set up MediaWiki yesterday and everything was fine. I turned off my computer without shutting down apache and mysql and woke up to this morning to continue working on it but mysql cannot start. I have no backup yet since I recently just made it yesterday night so I won't be too upset losing the very few articles I written.

Code: Select all
InnoDB: using atomic writes.

I tried looking at ibdata1, I as administrator should have complete control over it so I'm not sure why I'm getting this error.

What are my options on how to fix this?
