Re: Error Code 13 when using ALTER TABLE

2002-01-02 Thread Robert Alexander

I'd suggest checking to see if you (or the user MySQL is running as) have the 
necessary permissions to alter or rename a file in that directory.

A CHECK TABLE of the table says that it is OK, but a REPAIR TABLE reports an
error '13 when fixing table' and 'Operation Failed' as the final status.

Any ideas of what is going wrong?

RE: Error Code 13 when using ALTER TABLE

2002-01-02 Thread Stephen Rainey

I have been getting this same error. I am not able to Alter or Drop Tables.
I am definately sure that I have the necessary permissions. This has
happened on all of my recent installs of MySQL on windows XP and 2000
advanced server. I would appreciate any knowlege on this matter. Getting
tired of shutting down the server and deleting the tables just to alter a
feild.

Thanks,

Stephen Rainey

Some additional details.  I can usually perform at least one ADD COLUMN
successfully before I start getting this error.  I also seem to be able to
create databases and tables without a problem.  This leads me to believe that th
permissions are set properly.

Once I get the error, I can't perform any more ALTER TABLE commands, but I am
still able to search the database without any problems.  CHECK TABLE reports
that the table is OK until I perform a REPAIR TABLE command, after that CHECK
TABLE reports that the last REPAIR TABLE failed.

Restarting the MySQL service seems to correct whatever is wrong with the table
and I am then able to do ADD COLUMN again (usually one successful call, then
errors on subsequent calls).

Error code 13

2001-02-12 Thread Rashid Zolqarnain

Hello,
 I copy a database "demo" from one server to another. The file
types are the same as other databases that  exist in the destination
server. I stopped and  restarted mysql server. When I try to use that
database using the command
"use demo"
it gives me the following error
"Error code 13 can't read ./demo"
What could be be problem?

Re: Error code 13

2001-02-12 Thread Jorge del Conde

Hi,

This sounds like a permissions problem.

Make sure your database directory is set to 770 and that the files inside
(tables) are set to 660.

example:

# chmod 770 demo
# chmod 660 demo/*

Regards
Jorge
