[FIXED] Where to change the value of lower_case_table_names=2 in XAMPP on Windows?

Issue

I am using Windows 7 and XAMPP. I am trying to export my database and while in the process the table names are converted to lower case.

I have searched a lot, I know I have to change the value of lower_case_table_names from 0 to 2, but where do I have to change this value, in which file?

Solution

Do these steps:

1. open your MySQL configuration file: [drive]\xampp\mysql\bin\my.ini
2. look up for: # The MySQL server [mysqld]
3. add this right below it: lower_case_table_names = 2
4. save the file and restart MySQL service
