InnoDB problems under 5.1.9
Dear MySQL, I've installed 5.1.9 from source on a SUSE 10 box. But I can't get InnoDB tables respected. I have used the correct compilation flag (--with-innodb). SHOW VARIABLES; lists all the usual innodb variables. The innodb table space has been created in ~/var/ibdata1. But if I enter: CREATE TABLE a ( a int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ) ENGINE=InnoDB; SHOW CREATE TABLE a; CREATE TABLE `a` ( `a` int(10) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ) ENGINE=MyISAM As you can see, an InnoDB has become an MyISAM and will be stored in ~/var/test/a.* I am using the large table .cnf file. Everything else is much as default. Can anybody help me?

Hi Ben, Try doing SHOW ENGINES; and see what it says. It should say InnoDB is supported, if not then it hasn't compiled in.

RE: InnoDB problems under 5.1.9
Hi Ben, I thought the InnoDB engine was included without having to set a ./configure option. On my latest build (admittedly a 5.0.18 one) InnoDB was enabled without setting any ./configure option. My options were hambone /usr/dev/src/mysql-5.0.18 $ cat ../../build_scripts/mysql-5.0.18 #!/bin/bash ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/mysql-5.0.18 \ --enable-thread-safe-client \ --with-unix-socket-path=/tmp \ --with-openssl \ --with-example-storage-engine \ --with-archive-storage-engine \ --with-csv-storage-engine \ --with-blackhole-storage-engine \ --with-ndbcluster \ --with-ndb-test \ --with-ndb-port=3510 \ --with-ndb-port-base=3710 \ --with-federated-storage-engine This worked fine. If I get time later, I may give it a punt with your version. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Re: InnoDB problems under 5.1.9
Very very odd. I am compiling with the --use-innodb option. I am starting mysqld with the --innodb option. The table space is created for innodb. But SHOW ENGINE shows InnoDB = DISABLED. There are relevant no errors in the .err file. Thanks for sending me your compilation options. I'll give those a go and see what happens... Regards, Ben.

Hi Gerald, I am sure I don't have this in my my.cfg. I am using the supplied 'large table' my.cfg.

Re: InnoDB problems under 5.1.9
Thanks for the tip. Simple problem, my innodb data file was created with the default my.cnf. When I started it with the large_table version, it used different innodb table space size. Therefore would not start :) Cheers, Ben Dan Buettner wrote: Ben, looks like you've either got it disabled in my.cnf or with a startup flag, or you've not set all the needed options for InnoDB. See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysqld-max.html, near the bottom of the page it explains what DISABLED means and refers you to the error log for messages.

BIG INNODB Problems solved.. I think
A few days ago I did the following: Turned off MySQL. Installed 4.1.8a, then I went into the directory where all of the database files are located. I moved everything having to do with INNODB tables and logs into another location for safekeeping. Then I started up the new version of MySQL. I had our developer basically start from scratch (using her stored text files)... so far, there have been no problems... We're keeping our fingers crossed! :-) J. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: BIG InnoDB problems!
Joshua, the stack trace below shows that you are trying to drop a database? Why? If you can, you should use SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE to save of your tables what you can save, then rebuild the whole InnoDB tablespace, and import the tables back to MySQL. The .err file below starts from a situation where you have already set innodb_force_recovery to 5. 5 (SRV_FORCE_NO_UNDO_LOG_SCAN) Do not look at undo logs when starting the database: InnoDB will treat even incomplete transactions as committed. Was the original problem the same as what we see below? The history list of InnoDB in the ibdata files seems to be corrupt. The only way to fix that kind of corruption is to rebuild the whole tablespace.

Re: BIG InnoDB problems!
Joshua, the problem you had was serious corruption in the ibdata files. It can be caused by an InnoDB bug, an OS bug, faulty hardware, and also by an error of the database administrator. Linux kernels 2.4.18 seemed to have corruption issues. There are no known corruption bugs of this type in InnoDB. If this happens again, please make a very detailed bug report, with the complete .err log, all the way from the birth of the installation up to the corruption.

BIG InnoDB problems!
I've been struggling with this problem for the last few days. I've enlisted the help of some colleagues on the NYLUG (NY Linux User's Group) list but finally we figured this is the best place to look for some help. We have a server running SLES 9.0 (SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9.0) and: mysqladmin Ver 8.41 Distrib 4.1.8a, for pc-linux-gnu on i686 There are 5 MySQL databases on the server. The smallest has 5 tables, the largest 14 tables. All the tables in all the databases are myISAM tables. There is ONE database on the server that we are trying to create/work with that is all InnoDB tables. We are having serious problems with these tables. There are indications in the error logfile regarding what to do to try and discover the root of these problems and fix them. I will begin pursuing those options shortly after posting this but as: 1) We're under a deadline with the application in question that requires the InnoDB tables and 2) Although I'm the most qualified person, from a technical standpoint, at my institution to try and get this fixed, that's not saying much as I'm not THAT deeply technical. I thought I'd risk posting some of the logfile here to see what the experts have to say. Please accept my apologies for just coming here and dumping this on the list's lap. I will try to figure it out myself but if anyone can help guide me towards a solution in the meantime I'd be much obliged. Many thanks in advance.

Re: BIG InnoDB problems!
Joshua, please show what the FIRST InnoDB error in the .err log was. The first error is always the important thing to report. Please follow these instructions: Please read http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Using_stack_trace.html and follow instructions on how to resolve the stack trace. Resolved stack trace is much more helpful in diagnosing the problem, so please do resolve it Best regards, Heikki Tuuri Innobase Oy Foreign keys, transactions, and row level locking for MySQL InnoDB Hot Backup - a hot backup tool for InnoDB which also backs up MyISAM tables http://www.innodb.com/order.php Order MySQL technical support from https://order.mysql.com/ - Original Message - From: jsf [EMAIL PROTECTED] Newsgroups: mailing.database.myodbc Sent: Friday, December 31, 2004 12:26 AM Subject: BIG InnoDB problems!

mysqld crash due to innoDB problems?
DESCRIPTION: Mysqld appears to crash every few days or so. The .err file shows that it may be an innodb problem. (See below for detail) How-To-Repeat I am not able to repeat the problem. The query that runs when the mysqld server dies, is automatically re-run when the server comes back up. The query always appears to run successfully after the restart. Fix: The automatic restart of mysqld solves the problem, however the server going down is now my problem.

Settings from the worst affected system' my.cnf file are: # Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables innodb_data_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data/ innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend innodb_log_group_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data/ innodb_log_arch_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data/ # You can set .._buffer_pool_size up to 50 - 80 % # of RAM but beware of setting memory usage too high set-variable = innodb_buffer_pool_size=32M set-variable = innodb_additional_mem_pool_size=2M # Set .._log_file_size to 25 % of buffer pool size set-variable = innodb_log_file_size=5M set-variable = innodb_log_buffer_size=8M innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=1 set-variable = innodb_lock_wait_timeout=50 #set-variable = innodb_force_recovery=4 We are doing an sqldump every hour and before any shutdowns now, because we can't guarantee that the database will come back up. If anyone can spot the problem or suggest a course of action to debug the issue I'll be very happy. -- Rick Ellis [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Innodb problems
I've been using MyISAM tables for a long time on a lot of machines and (knock on wood) have basically never had a problem. Now though on a larger server I decided we should use INNODB tables and am having problems. I didn't realize until today that it's been 'crashing' and recovering repeatedly for the past few weeks. Today it died though and could not repair itself. Since I'm doing replication to a second server I just copied databases from the backup server to the primary and got things back going. Looking at the log files on the second/backup server it has the same type of errors in the log file though. Not bad hardware unless both (identical) servers have the same bad hardware. Here's where it crashed and dumped a heck of a lot of hex data into the log file: ..;InnoD B: End of page dump InnoDB: Page checksum 1558702454 stored checksum 0 InnoDB: Page lsn 4 226263974, low 4 bytes of lsn at page end 0 InnoDB: Page may be an index page where index id is 0 565 InnoDB: Database page corruption or a failed InnoDB: file read of page 36819.

Re: Innodb problems
Wendell, InnoDB writes a checksum to a database page when it is written to disk. If the checksum does not correspond to the page contents when the page is read back in, you get the below error. Below page 36819 in table registrydb_tn/TBL_AllNames appears to be corrupt, like it says. The checksum is 0, which does not correspond to page contents. When you encounter this kind of error, the first thing to try is rebooting the computer, like it says below. Next you can try dumping, dropping, and reimporting the corrupt table. The last resort is to recover from a backup. 020306 09:01:16 mysqld restarted 020306 9:01:16 Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in use 020306 9:01:16 Do you already have another mysqld server running on port: 3306 ? The last error you got was probably that Linux had not killed the entire mysqld process though mysqld had called exit(1). Then you should look with ps -A what processes are running, and kill -9 them manually. Please send me all error messages and hex dumps you have, from both servers. What version you are running? Linux kernels 2.2 -2.5 seem to have bugs in the i/o system, especially in connection with RAID disks. But let us look first at the hex files.

Re: InnoDB problems
Nuno, I noticed a similar unexplained restriction on our Linux 2.4. We have 512 MB physical memory, no swap partition, and for some reason I cannot malloc more than 256 MB. The Unix errno just says 'Cannot allocate memory'. On our other machine with 900 MB RAM and 512 MB swap I can malloc 900 MB. What is your my.cnf like?
