    Bug#19027 MySQL 5.0 starts even with Fatal InnoDB errors · 8b39abe2
    Kristofer Pettersson authored
    It is not possible to prevent the server from starting if a mandatory
    built-in plugin fails to start. This can in some cases lead to data
    corruption when the old table name space suddenly is used by a different
    storage engine.
    
    A boolean command line option in the form of --foobar is automatically
    created for every existing plugin "foobar". By changing this command line
    option from a boolean to a tristate { OFF, ON, FORCE } it is possible to
    specify the plugin loading policy for each plugin.
    
    The behavior is specified as follows:
       OFF   = Disable the plugin and start the server
       ON    = Enable the plugin and start the server even if an error occurrs
               during plugin initialization.
       FORCE = Enable the plugin but don't start the server if an error occurrs
               during plugin initialization.
