MYSQL 8.0 - 不支持的重做日志格式

Question

I have recently updated mysql that was located under my xampp folder, and i've got the following errors, reporting from the log file :

I have been told if updating your mysql, you should comment out the deprecated configs that are located in your my.ini, but i had no idea what to comment out, so i left it as it is.

Any idea what causes this?

Answer 1

If you have already installed MySQL and did not perform a slow shutdown using the

innodb_fast_shutdown

Flag, simply go to your MySQL directory

/var/lib/mysql/

And remove the log files (Do not do this if you need the table data in your database until you have backed up your database):

ib_logfile0 ib_logfile1

Back them up before if you need them again.
