I am using Mandrake 10, MySQL 4.1.5 from RPM downloaded from dev.mysql.com.
Look at this session: ==== $ mysql -u root -p permarn Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 4 to server version: 4.1.5-gamma-standard Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. mysql> select * from tblinstructivos; Empty set (0.00 sec) mysql> drop table tblinstructivos; ERROR 1051 (42S02): Unknown table 'tblinstructivos' mysql> select * from `tblinstructivos`; Empty set (0.00 sec) mysql> drop table `tblinstructivos`; ERROR 1051 (42S02): Unknown table 'tblinstructivos' mysql> ===== Why I can not drop this particular table? No problem with any other table. Every table in this database is InnoDB. I started mysql with the "--user=root" flag.
