This morning our MySQL exited for no good reason! mysql.err: 021020 17:25:53 021020 17: 021022 18:20:16 mysqld ended
mysql.log: 021022 18:20:09 243748 Connect mysql_user@localhost on 243748 Init DB mydb 243749 Connect [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 243749 Init DB mydb 243748 Quit 243749 Query INSERT INTO IDRefs VALUES('5136110c98b89de5d389df0754182ff2','','',NOW(),'Not available','','') When I logged into mysql manually, there was an error relating to the IDRefs table, (can't remember exactly but it was something like "Cannot get data of table structure" - I was in a rush to get things up and running!). I deleted the contents of this table and used OPTIMIZE and it has worked OK since then. However, a similar crash occured on Sunday, but I didn't investigate it fully. So, why is this INSERT query causing MySQL to crash? The table it uses is the one that keeps track of users and their shopping bag (online web ordering facility). There was plenty of disk space on the server, Solaris 2.7, using mysql 3.23.51. Thanks for any advice John --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
