Folks,
please forgive the newbie panic but I believe I've gotten myself into
trouble.
After experiencing some problems with a db I decided to run the
'Repair' commands from the MySQL Administrator program. After failing
to find anything significant I (somewhat foolishly) ran the Use FRM
repair option believing it would simply recreate the index.
I now have an XServe running with mysqld at @ 98% CPU and it's been
like that for over two hours. I can connect via mysql (CLI) or the
MySQL Administrator program but I can't select a db to use.
The total of the data on the server is only around 40 MB. I'm
concerned (terrified?) if I do anything I'll hopelessly corrupt
everything. I do have a fairly recent backup but I'd far prefer to
get the existing dbs back again.
Can anyone advise what I should do? Should I just let it keep going?
How long would this type of repair take with only 40 MB of data? Is
there anything else I can try?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
regards
//kim
