Thanks for the information and help. I resolved the problem, it was a permissions issue with the mysql folder.

( command: chown to change the ownership of a file or folder... then restart mysql and test ) also... - is there enough space on your drive ? ( dk -k ) - dmesg reports any errors ? ( check for any OOPS, WOOPS, ERRORS or any SegFault msg ) - too much IOWAIT maybe ? ( start top and validate the iowait % : should be less than 25% for accurate answers from MySQL ) If after that, you can't resolve your mysql issue, activate the General query log and check this log to see what's going wrong... ( howto: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/query-log.html ) Good luck M-A Le 11-04-19 18:15, Ritter, Nicholas a écrit : > Sorry...it appears to be a database error: > > tail -f packetfence.log: > > Apr 19 17:12:38 pfmon(1) INFO: checking registered nodes for expiration > (main::cleanup) > Apr 19 17:12:38 pfmon(1) WARN: database query failed with: Can't find file: > './pf/node.frm' (errno: 13).
