Turn off InnoDB support in MySQL

Answer:

If you never use the InnoDB storage engine in MySQL, it is better to disable it.

To disable this feature, edit the MySQL configurations, e.g. /etc/my.cnf

[mysqld]
...
...
skip-innodb

Add the "skip-innodb" will do the tricks for you.

Don't forget to restart MySQL to take effect.

# /sbin/service mysqld restart
