First, thanks for your response. I don't have the error message in front of me, but it's something like:
# myisamchk -r table Data rows: 56,402 Attempting to fix records: 0/0 something something Data rows: 0 # Next time it occurs I'll save the detailed error message. MySQL doesn't crash.. if it did, that might be better! Instead it just returns 127 errors and I have to take it down, fix table, bring it back up. I'm going to change the code to do delete * from table where 1=1 instead of truncate. I really hope that will solve my problem! - Tom Dan Nelson wrote: > In the last episode (Jun 07), Thomas Lackner said: > >>A client of mine runs MySQL in a pretty high volume environment, and for >>the past couple months we've had a lot of trouble with corrupt tables >>(error 127).
