The data is held in a single large file named ibdata1, and the file seems to have grown too large. This database is held on a Windows 2003 Server. I need someone to tell me how to extract the data from the large datafile without starting the database OR extend the allowed size for the file on Windows so that I can start db.<\/p>\n
Starting the db from a command window, I get:<\/p>\n
>> CMD window >>
