Hi, Jonas crashes occurs for some reasons like : - unclean tables ( tables are closed improprely), - hardware problems - something goes wrong in the system - know bugs Check that your tables are clean, before start using them.
It seems that you said the REPAIR doesn't occurs after you configuring related variables in the my.cnf file ? Because the daemon will not start when the my.cnf contains any errors (variable names), the format is to be correct. Can you indicates what MySQL version you run and your OS version.
