It is my understanding that InnoDB creates and uses an ibdata1 data file and ib_logfile0 and ib_logfile1 log files. However, I cannot find these files anywhere on my file system. (First place I checked was C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\data\mysql). I am using Windows XP, a default configuration of MySQL 5.5.21, and my database uses the InnoDB storage engine.
Oddly, all of the files in my data\mysql directory have the same timestamp, which is several months old. An exhaustive search of my system for ibdata1, ib_logfile0, and ib_logfile1 does not turn up anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
