In this page: I read: "Translating a CONNECT table to another engine is fine but the opposite is forbidden when the target CONNECT table is not table based or when its data file exists" I tried ALTER TABLE ... ENGINE = ? in both directions (from and to CONNECT) with both file-based inward/outward tables. It always works: no errors, data is not damaged. Maybe the documentation is not updated? |

Can you give an example of this? When I try this, for example to ALTER an Aria table to CONNECT when the data file exists, I get "ERROR 1105 (HY000): Operation denied. Table data would be lost." which is the expected, documented behaviour. |
