Well, I am not sure if anyone has experienced the same problem, or if this problem has been documented, but this is what I have noticed:
After one of my data table was full, I started to delete old records from the table to allow new data to be inserted. Since then, the LIMIT function stop working. I used to be able to do: SELECT * FROM mytable LIMIT 0, 50 or DELETE FROM mytable LIMIT 0, 50 Now it doesn't work any more. I have to add a WHERE clause in order to make the LIMIT working. For instance: SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id > 0 LIMIT 0, 50 or DELETE FROM mytable WHERE id > 0 LIMIT 0, 50 However, this is not a good query considering 15 million records in the table. I have repeated the same problem on two systems with similar setting. Thanks.
