Hi, I recently inherited a Mysql 3.23.46 database, have some old ISAM tables on which I am unable to do updates or inserts. I get error message #1036 'Table is read only.' I am able to sign on to the database through the root, set myself up as a superuser in the user table, and have been able to set up test tables and make inserts etc. so it doesn't look like a permissions issue. I thought that converting the tables to myisam might help but of course I get the same error message. When I copied one of the smaller tables into a new table I was able to update it. (as a last resort I could do this on all the tables, but some are large and it doesn't really address why the problem occurred) Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks! - Bill Flanagan
