You probably have a database default to InnoDB, not MyISAM.

See error while trying to create a processing database for diagnosis and solution.

Is this CentOS or other linux distribution ? CentOS should default to MyISAM last we checked.

I run the system on Ubuntu 13.04 Desktop.
And I've checked I add the MyISAM setting into my.cnf

Is that php version or mysql error ?
Someone can give me suggestion or solution?
Many Thanks,

Try this mysql command after starting its command line interface as shown in step 13 (checking mysql variable) in Database_Server_Installation.

show table status where name = 'SessionData';

I still think that your my.cnf has not taken effect. Is it possible that the mysql server wasn't restarted after your change in my.cnf ?
