SYNOPSIS

9       mysql_fix_extensions data_dir
10

DESCRIPTION

12       mysql_fix_extensions converts the extensions for MyISAM (or ISAM) table
13       files to their canonical forms. It looks for files with extensions
14       matching any lettercase variant of .frm, .myd, .myi, .isd, and .ism and
15       renames them to have extensions of .frm, .MYD, .MYI, .ISD, and .ISM,
16       respectively. This can be useful after transferring the files from a
17       system with case-insensitive file names (such as Windows) to a system
18       with case-sensitive file names.
19
20       Invoke mysql_fix_extensions like this, where data_dir is the path name
21       to the MySQL data directory.

23           shell> mysql_fix_extensions data_dir
