Yes, you do get a create table statement. It ends with the LOCK statement IE: -- -- Table structure for table 'terms' -- DROP TABLE IF EXISTS terms; CREATE TABLE terms ( trmID tinyint(2) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, trmPrct int(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '0', trmText char(30) NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY (trmID), KEY trmTextidx (trmText), KEY trmPrctidx (trmPrct) ) TYPE=MyISAM; /*!40000 ALTER TABLE terms DISABLE KEYS */; -- -- Dumping data for table 'terms' -- LOCK TABLES terms WRITE; > > If this is a cache problem, then any insert or 'reset query cache' > would invalidate the cache.

Yes, restarting MySQL clears the problem. The problem happens with BOTH myisam and innodb tables!!!! I can send either or both tables to the upload site. One other thought was it could be the LOCK TABLES statement that is causing this issue, I did not think to try that at the command prompt, I will check it but as I just restarted the server it will take a few hours before I see the problem again. Hope this helps, Ken > > Regards, > Monty > > -------------------------------------------------------------------- - > Before posting, please check: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
