Bug#306409: mysql-server: Security upgrade to package broke delete operations
Hello mysql delete from tbl_Country; ERROR 1: Can't create/write to file './journals/tbl_Country.ISM' (Errcode: 17) First update: The offending changes are within the big debian/patches/SECURITY__CAN-2005-0709,0710,0711.diff file. Unpatching just this one makes mysqld work again. From looking at it the my_create(.., O_NOFOLLOW,..) seems suspicious, maybe a DELETE uses symlinks for temporary tables or something like that. (more later, lunch break is over now...) bye, -christian- pgpHUhJ6vB1Ky.pgp Description: PGP signature

Just re-adding the O_TRUNC that looked like beeing forgotten seems not to be enough. I will ask MySQL for an idea. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

tags 306409 + confirmed woody thanks Hello Mike On 2005-04-26 Mike Brodbelt wrote: After upgrading this package from security.debian.org, the delete operation (at least) has broken. I have a cron job which deletes all data in certain tables, and repopulates them from an external data source. This is achieved by simply doing delete from tbl_foo, and this operation now fails with the following error. mysql delete from tbl_Country; ERROR 1: Can't create/write to file './journals/tbl_Country.ISM' (Errcode: 17) The bug is reproducible. As a quick workaround I can suggest you to upgrade your tables to the MySQL format (which is better and the default anyway) using ALTER TABLE xyz TYPE=MyISAM;. Tagged as important as a security update has effectively caused a severe breakage in the operation of the database for me, and I'm still trying to figure out what's changed. There have been no other changes to system setup or configuration. I will browse through the changesets in the next days to see if there's a but in them. bye, -christian- pgpXmFHCwEQ3Q.pgp Description: PGP signature
