Hello,
We had a situation over night where users were getting the error message:
"[My SQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver][mysqld-4.0.13-nt] Can't open file: flex. MYI:
[error : 145]"
I found that .MYI file had become corrupted and I repaired the table and
things are working as they should now.
However the reason that I am sending this email is that my end users want to
know why this index had become corrupted.
My first thought is that something had happened while a record was being
writen to the table which caused the index to be corrupted.
Does anyone have any other suggestions as to why the index file for a table
might become corrupted so that I can explain this to my end users.
Thank you
