mysql 5.6 found one mycnf item that prevents sql from starting

[dmacleo]

I found that with 5.6 if there is

table_cache=xxxx

entry (xxx is whatever figure you have) in my.cnf then sql won't start.
I don't know why, I just saw some threads about it not starting after upgrading so figured I would post the one item I found in my.cnf file (one I have been using a few months on 5.5 versions) that prevented startup.

Since 5.1.3 it is called table_open_cache.

@dmacleo (and everyone), what are your experience with MySQL 5.6.x so far? Is it ready for production? Does it feel slower then MySQL 5.5.x, or just about the same?

I had to go back due to one item I use (clipbucket) just would not work well with it.
