I am using wamp server 2.0 on Windows XP. Whenever I create a table with some uppercases in name, it is converted to lowercase.
For example:
I create: UserInfo phpmyadmin convert it to: userinfo
I am using ubuntu/phpmyadmin in office but this problem does exists there.
from where can I fix this. Thanks

Method 1
There is a directive for forcing table names to lower case.
You want to set the lower_case_table_names value to 0.
You can read more about it from MySQL documentation here
Method 2
I’ve tried what’s been suggested here, i must inform that
lower_case_table_names = 0
doesn’t work in xampp, it crashes MySQL service at the moment you restart it. Yet
lower_case_table_names = 2
didn’t crash, and apparently worked… at least it allowed me to insert a db with camel case.
Method 3
In windows the default value for lower_case_table_names = 1.
You need to change or add this value to my.ini file in your mysql folder..
If this line is not found, then add it under [mysqld]
lower_case_table_names = 0
And then restart the wamp services, it will work 😀
Method 4
You must find file my.ini in your mysql folder and change, or add this line:
lower_case_table_names value = 0
Method 5
You need to find file my.ini in your mysql folder and change, or add this line at bottom:
lower_case_table_names = 2
Method 6
It was not phpMyAdmin. MySQL did this.
p.s. It is a bad practice to use camelCase in databases. Use _underlines instead. 🙂
Method 7
- Step 1: open your MySQL configuration file: [drive]xamppmysqlbinmy.ini
or open xampp click on mysql -> config then open my.ini file - Step 2: Search [mysqld] for: # The MySQL server [mysqld] in my.ini file
- Step 3: Add this :lower_case_table_names=2
- Step 4: save the file and restart MySQL service or (Xampp)
