The used table type doesn't support FULLTEXT indexes

Question

I import this table data into phpmyadmin:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `cms_books` (
  `id` bigint(20) NOT NULL,
  `title` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_persian_ci NOT NULL,
  `seo_title` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_persian_ci NOT NULL,
  `orginal_title` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_persian_ci NOT NULL,
  `pub_type` tinyint(2) NOT NULL,
  `long_desc` longtext COLLATE utf8_persian_ci NOT NULL,
  `counter` int(11) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8;

and i see this error :

--

-- Indexes for table cms_books

--

ALTER TABLE cms_books ADD PRIMARY KEY (id), ADD FULLTEXT KEY title (title), ADD FULLTEXT KEY long_desc (long_desc); MySQL said: Documentation

#1214 - The used table type doesn't support FULLTEXT indexes

In localhost i add fulltext for title and long_desc so this worked but when i import i see this error. how do fix this error?

Answer 1

You need to change your engine to MyISAM. FULL TEXT Search is supported after MySQL 5.6 in INNODB. You can check it over here.

See the MYSQL Docs:

Full-text searches are supported for MyISAM tables only. (In MySQL 5.6 and up, they can also be used with InnoDB tables.)

Answer 2

Simple find in sql file ENGINE=InnoDB replace with ENGINE=MyISAM

It's working fine for me.
