From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: table modification [ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN name]; on large table (1.7gb) crashed mysqldnt Description: - attempt to extract a longblob column from a large table with ca. 200.000 records into a separate table (successful) - dropping the blob_column from the large table (success) consecutive access to the database by an odbc-client caused the server to crash. stack_trace (dump.txt) attached How-To-Repeat: bug has been reproduced a 2nd time by dropping another column from the same table. Actually, the original table is not available anymore, because the crash corrupted the indexfile. Further attempts to reproduce the failure on backup-tables in progress.
