Re: Change "ft_min_word_len" on index to 3 ?

[Lee Fairbanks]

I figured this out.
Finding the ini file on Windows 8 was one of this problems. I found it here:

C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\my.ini

I had been looking in user Appdata and a number of other folders.

Once found, I stopped MySQL server, opened the my.ini file and added the new variable: ft_min_word_len=3;

However, the my.ini did not have a "ft_min_word_len" line so I just added it to one of the sections:

Saved/closed the file. Started MySQL and did a repair of the database using Workbench tools.

Ran a query and it worked rather well!
