Would it be possible to add: ENGINE=MyISAM
To all the CREATE TABLE statements in the mysql_fix_privilege_tables script? The server (tested with 5.0.3 and 5.0.4) crashes when creating/altering these tables if the following is in /etc/my.cnf: default-table-type=innodb I had to drop all the new tables and added ENGINE=MyISAM to the CREATE TABLE statements, re-ran the script and it worked fine. Here is an example crash report: 050422 9:19:43InnoDB: Assertion failure in thread 245771 in file ../include/data0type.ic line 466 InnoDB: Failing assertion: type->len % type->mbmaxlen == 0 InnoDB: We intentionally generate a memory trap. InnoDB: Submit a detailed bug report to http://bugs.mysql.com. InnoDB: If you get repeated assertion failures or crashes, even InnoDB: immediately after the mysqld startup, there may be InnoDB: corruption in the InnoDB tablespace. Please refer to InnoDB: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Forcing_recovery.html InnoDB: about forcing recovery. 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 against 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=8388600 read_buffer_size=131072 max_used_connections=1 max_connections=100 threads_connected=1 It is possible that mysqld could use up to key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_connections = 225791 K bytes of memory Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation. thd=0x8ab7a70 Attempting backtrace. You can use the following information to find out where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went terribly wrong... Cannot determine thread, fp=0xbe5f3938, backtrace may not be correct. Stack range sanity check OK, backtrace follows: 0x8180bef 0xb7e48c85 0x8295abc 0x829492a 0x829286c 0x82af069 0x82ae30c 0x82c5f99 0x823754f 0x8233119 0x8227b3f 0x8210552 0x823cb76 0x823f164 0x8196522 0x819d604 0x8194278 0x8193d85 0x8193192 0xb7e4354e 0xb7d71b8a New value of fp=(nil) failed sanity check, terminating stack trace! Please read http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Using_stack_trace.html and follow instructions on how to resolve the stack trace. Resolved stack trace is much more helpful in diagnosing the problem, so please do resolve it Trying to get some variables.
