After upgrading from to 4.0.18 I can no longer access my innodb tables created under 3.23. I get these errors:
% mysql -uroot db0 ... Didn't find any fields in table 'Employees' ...
My database files and .frm files are all present and readable. No errors in the hostname.err file either. I tried all the tips in the installation instructions, confirmed proper file permissions, etc.
Has anyone encountered this problem? I did not see this issue discussed, and my only solution was using mysqldump to export my tables prior to the upgrade, then import after.
In the install docs I read that mysqldump *may* be required when jumping to a new release series. Is that definitely the case for 3.23 -> 4.0.18? I have a large data set and I want to avoid the downtime for mysqldump.
TIA.
