Hi, My mysql error file (hostname.err) had grown to 11G on Red Hat 7.0, kernel 2.4.3, file system type ext2. As I understand it, file size in Terrabytes can be supported under this kernel version, however, mysql semi-crashed at this point, meaning I could not connect to it remotely (I could connect locally but that didnn't help much). I had to kill -9 the process, a simple kill wouldn't work and even after that one mysql process was left hanging which a 'kill -9' wouldn't kill either. When I tried to bring mysql back up it complained about the error file being too large. I had to reboot the server finally to get everything to work. Has anybody seen this before and can explain why it happened?
The other question is, Before I brought down the server and after I brought it up, I have been seeing the following message in my .err file: 020625 0:08:13 Error in accept: Invalid argument for probably every single query that gets executed. This is what is filling up my *.err file to 11GB in the first place. The results of the query seem to look fine but I get these errors in the error file...anyone know what they mean? Thanks, Bhavin. Thanks a lot, Bhavin. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
