I got an error while executing myisamchk -rq on compressed table. Here's the output:
[root@db prod_rel5_1_0]# myisampack buyer Compressing buyer.MYD: (3687550 records) - Calculating statistics - Compressing file 62.69% Remember to run myisamchk -rq on compressed tables [root@db prod_rel5_1_0]# myisamchk -rq buyer - check key delete-chain - check record delete-chain - recovering (with sort) MyISAM-table 'buyer.MYI' Data records: 3687550 - Fixing index 1 myisamchk: error: Found too many records; Can`t continue MyISAM-table 'buyer' is not fixed because of errors Try fixing it by using the --safe-recover (-o) or the --force (-f) option [root@db prod_rel5_1_0]# myisamchk -roq buyer - check key delete-chain - check record delete-chain - recovering (with keycache) MyISAM-table 'buyer.MYI' Data records: 3668074 Data records: 3687550 So, using myisamchk -roq solved the problem. My question is, what is the purpose of the error that I get and is it safe?
