How to update mysql version in xampp (error with innodb_additional_mem_pool_size)

Question

I\'m trying to upgrade mysql in xamp. I\'m using laravel which requires mariaDB v10.2.2. So I downloaded the latest

Answer 1

Simply remove this line from my.ini:

    innodb_additional_mem_pool_size = 2M

It was "deprecated in MySQL 5.6.3, are removed in MySQL 5.7.4."

(If my notes are correct, it has been "unused" since 4.1.0!)
