increasing field size

[Richard Kreiss]

Moved the 2 keys to my laptop and had no problem restructuring the files. 

Not sure if this is a 5.6.10 problem or a system problem.  I gave the database on 2 servers. The primary server has the fp executables. The restricting would not work on either machine with 5.6. 

What has created the problem is smaller files will restructure but the 5Gb or larger file. 

Has anyone run into this problem?
