is it possible to set engine for database (not the tables)? There are about 250 tables in my database and they all have InnoDB engine. I imported them into a server. 

They were imported and were displayed in the tree structure of phpmyadmin (under the database name), but when I clicked on them MySQL reported the error that table doesn't exist!! 

From this link ,I find out that database engine and tables engine are not the same. is it possible to set engine for database itself (not the tables)? if yes how ?



update :

I also tried to create tables manually (by SQL Query and InnoDB engine) but reported the error that can't create table, I changed InnoDB to MyISAM and problem solved!
There is no "database" engine setting. A database can have tables using different engines.

There are two variables that define which engine will be used when a table is created with a CREATE TABLE that does not include an ENGINE = EngineName specification. The variables are the (global and session) default_storage_engine. The global is configured at startup (from my.cnf or command line) and the session variable can be setup during each session.
