Question : Problem giving while creating spatial index on geomentry column in MySql server.

Hello All,

I am working on MySQL server 5.0.
I have created a table using command
 CREATE TABLE geom (g GEOMETRY NOT NULL);

Now I want to create spatial index on column 'g' using command.
 CREATE SPATIAL INDEX sp_index ON geom (g);

It gives me following error -
"ERROR 1464 (HY000): The used table type doesn't support SPATIAL indexes"

Please give me some information about this problem.

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
dAshish
