MySQL 5.1.40 InnoDB

[yuminanako]

Linux version: CentOS release 5.4 (final)
cPanel version: cPanel 11.25.0-E42048 - WHM 11.25.0 - X 3.9
MySQL version: 5.1.40

Seems like MySQL 5.1.40 lacks InnoDB. I just noticed after running /script/cpbackup and looking at the log files noticing

...Done

I also looked through /etc/my.cnf and there was no instance of skip-innodb so InnoDB should be enabled somewhat. I also got some output from mysql.
Heres the output from mysql

In my experience this occurs when there was a problem with the Innodb files.

Watch your mysql error log when you restart the mysql server. Most likely you will find some error.

Log file is normally located at /var/lib/mysql/servername.err
