I've got these kind of errors a couple of times in the last few years. Mostly a "REPAIR TABLE" fixed it. Such a bug has not been reported in the last couple of months at least which makes a general problem in this version at least not likely. To help, you could send a copy of the data files to mysql via http://bugs.mysql.com and ask them to investigate them to find the cause of the corruption. Also likely is bad memory/bad cpu, the usual suspects, but I guess you know them.. Or is there any possibility to reproduce this table crash after repairing the table once? This would clearly indicate a bug in MySQL. See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/crashing.html > I'm wondering, is the crashed table checker safe to run without external > locking (and a busy server)? As long as there is only one MySQL on your server, yes. See http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mysql/doc/refman/5.0/en/system.html for an explanation of this option. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
