I have a very small mysql database that uses innodb tables. I just started
getting the following error when I try to access the tables:
ERROR 1033 (HY000): Incorrect information in file:
'./mailserver/virtual_users.frm'
I google the error and it seems to have something to do with either the
error logs being too large or the database being too large. When I 'show
VARIABLES' at the mysql prompt I found:
innodb_data_file_path ibdata1:10M:autoextend
innodb_log_file_size 5242880
innodb_log_files_in_group 2
I looked in /var/lib/mysql and found
li84-151:/home/mark# ls -al /var/lib/mysql
total 10276
drwxr-xr-x 4 mysql mysql 4096 2010-05-04 17:15 .

-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 5242880 2009-07-12 09:25 ib_logfile1
Based on some reading on the mysql site (version 5.0 on Debian Lenny) I
removed the two ib_logfile and restarted mysql. I still get the same error.
Based on the mysql docs, I thought the autoextend for the
innodb_data_file_path would automatically take care of the data file growing
beyond the file size limit. Is this correct? Do I have to increase the size
of the innodb_data_file to make this error go away? How do I do that? Also,
these tables have not changed since they were created, so I am pondering how
the data file has grown. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Mark
