To modify the lower_case_table_names parameter in TDSQL-C MySQL version, you typically need to follow these steps:
Access the Configuration File: Locate the MySQL configuration file, which is usually named my.cnf or my.ini, depending on your operating system.
Edit the Configuration File: Open the configuration file with a text editor and find the [mysqld] section. Add or modify the lower_case_table_names parameter in this section. The parameter can take one of three values:
0: Table names are case-sensitive.1: Table names are stored in lowercase and comparisons are case-insensitive.2: Table names are stored as given but comparisons are case-insensitive.Example:
[mysqld]
lower_case_table_names=1
Save and Close: Save the changes to the configuration file and close the text editor.
Restart the Service: Restart the MySQL service to apply the changes. The command to restart the service varies depending on your operating system. For example, on Linux, you might use:
sudo systemctl restart mysql
Verify the Change: Connect to the MySQL server and verify that the parameter has been updated. You can do this by running the following SQL query:
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'lower_case_table_names';
Example Scenario:
Suppose you have a MySQL database running on TDSQL-C, and you want to ensure that all table names are treated as case-insensitive. You would follow the steps above, setting lower_case_table_names=1 in the configuration file, restarting the MySQL service, and then verifying the change.
