Ahh, so you've tried to re-create the database after it appeared to be safely dropped! You didn't say that in your note so I wanted to be sure you had done that much before writing the note.

Have you looked in the MySQL log to see if it is reporting any problems with the DROP? If you are using INNODB, have you tried a SHOW STATUS INNODB to see if it reported any problems?

What makes you think the delete of the database failed? It looks like the
message from the DROP command indicates that the database was dropped
successfully.

Hello,
Not sure what is going on
i have mysql  Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.17,

I have a database that i can not delete.

i do this
#mysqladmin drop billmax -u admin --password
Enter password:
Dropping the database is potentially a very bad thing to do.
Any data stored in the database will be destroyed.

Do you really want to drop the 'billmax' database [y/N] y
Database "billmax" dropped

But it does not do anything.

I have tried restarting the DB and restarting the box as well

Please help

Randy
