Hi I am getting an error trying to set a vairable in /etc/my.cnf

I appended this line under mysqld
Code:
ft_boolean_syntax="+ -><()~*:\"\"&|"

And I get this error:
mysqld: unknown variable 'ft_boolean_syntax=+ -><()~*:""&|'
 
strange...I am not getting an error when I copy and paste above statement into my own my.cnf file and restart the server. I tried it on a Debian system, with 4.1.10a-Debian_2-log version of MySQL. Well, maybe try putting some spaces on either side of the = sign? so...

ft_boolean_syntax = "+ -><()~*:\"\"&|
 
Yeah I tried all of that.

I am about to read the whole MySQL manual :p
 
Maybe you're using a version older than MySQL 4.0.1, when that variable was introduced?
 
The value you are specifying is the default value for that variable, according to the manual. Which means you don't need to specify it at all.
