This is exactly right and it is simple to fix. It's not so much a technical issue as a user issue. MySQL doesn't tell you, loudly enough, that it has a InnoDB problem and is not starting the engine. I'ts is good that it starts the server but it should announce X ENGINE NOT STARTED! “The only problem I know about is that the value must be the same as was used for any old log files that you may have.”

Thanks for communication how things are working for you! I am documenting some of the issues you have in http://askmonty.org to ensure that others should have an easier time to find a solution for similar problems. What was the issue with innodb_log_file_size=256M. I tested this with a fresh MariaDB install and had no problems with it. The only problem I know about is that the value must be the same as was used for any old log files that you may have. Keep up the good work! Regards, Monty Nice blog!
