Crash importing old data to new server

2002-07-30 Thread mysqlbug

MySql crashes:
On an idle server, executeing truncate table lists with the given data files 
(only an MYD and frm, no MYI).  I'm trying to save bandwidth transfering data from an 
old mysql install (mysql  Ver 11.15 Distrib 3.23.38, for pc-linux-gnu (i686)) to this 
one.  I wanted to transfer the data and frm but not the index, then rebuild on the new 
host.

How-To-Repeat:
get only ISD and frm table data files here:
http://www.julianhaight.com/mysqlbug/
drop them in any mysql table directory and run:
truncate table lists

Fix:
Don't do such crazy things in the first place.

Hi,

Why don't you just dump the databases, tar.gzip them, and transfer that 
file? It's smaller then the .frm+ .myd, and you can rebuild everything 
without probs...
