I am receiving an 'Assertion failed' error in my log and I am not really sure how to continue. What I was trying to do was start the MySQLd (v 3.23.53) with support for innodb (it is compiled in) on a FreeBSD 4.7-stable server. I used the settings in my-large.cnf as a template. The server in question is Dual P3-866, 1GB memory. If Ive included too much, or too little information, please let me know.
Below is the relevant portion of that logfile. error log: 021214 15:09:32 mysqld started 021214 15:09:34 InnoDB: Database was not shut down normally. InnoDB: Starting recovery from log files... InnoDB: Starting log scan based on checkpoint at InnoDB: log sequence number 0 43892 InnoDB: Doing recovery: scanned up to log sequence number 0 43892 InnoDB: Error: trying to access a stray pointer 9ac3bff8 InnoDB: buf pool start is at ac48000, number of pages 16384 021214 15:09:34 InnoDB: Assertion failure in thread 137764864 in file ../include/buf0buf.ic line 284 InnoDB: We intentionally generate a memory trap. InnoDB: Send a detailed bug report to [EMAIL PROTECTED] mysqld got signal 11; This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary or one of the libraries it was linked agaist is corrupt, improperly built, or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware. We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong and this may fail key_buffer_size=268431360 record_buffer=1044480 sort_buffer=1048568 max_used_connections=0 max_connections=100 threads_connected=0 It is possible that mysqld could use up to key_buffer_size + (record_buffer + sort_buffer)*max_connections = 466539 K bytes of memory Hope that's ok, if not, decrease some variables in the equation 021214 15:09:34 mysqld ended Thanks! ----- Chris Kulish Systems Engineer ING Advisors Network Ph.
