So, I'd like to be able to set the max log file size to 64M, but after doing so with innodb_log_file_size=64M MySQL starts OK, but nothing seems to work properly. EDIT: and by properly I mean not at all. Setting other InnoDB variables aren't causing any problems.

How should I go about troubleshooting this one?

+1  A: 

Make sure MySQL shuts down cleanly, and delete (or move elsewhere) all ib_logfile* files from MySQL data directory (/var/lib/mysql/ usually).

I've tested it and worked for me. Here's source of this hint.

InnoDB reports some errors in show table status comment field. You'll find other problems in MySQL error log (hostname.err in MySQL data directory).
