Richard, You may already know this, but here is a snipit out of the manual "If you run mysqld with --skip-locking (which is the default on some systems, like Linux), you can't reliably use myisamchk to check a table when mysqld is using the same table. If you can be sure that no one is accessing the tables through mysqld while you run myisamchk, you only have to do mysqladmin flush-tables before you start checking the tables. If you can't guarantee the above, then you must take down mysqld while you check the tables. If you run myisamchk while mysqld is updating the tables, you may get a warning that a table is corrupt even if it isn't." -- Walter Anthony System Administrator National Electronic Attachment Atlanta, Georgia 1-800-782-5150 ext. 1608 "If it's not broke....tweak it" CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE The information contained in this email may contain legally privileged and confidential information intended only for the use of the individual noted above.
