1114 (HY000): The table is full


I'm trying to add a row to an InnoDB table with a simply query:

INSERT INTO zip_codes (zip_code, city) VALUES ('90210', 'Beverly Hills');

But when I attempt this query, I get the following:

ERROR 1114 (HY000): The table zip_codes is full

Doing a

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM zip_codes

gives me 188,959 rows, which doesn't seem like too many considering I have another table with 810,635 rows in that same database.

I am fairly inexperienced with the InnoDB engine and never experienced this issue with MyISAM. What are some of the potential problems here ?

EDIT: This only occurs when adding a row to the zip_codes table.


Solution

  • EDIT: First check, if you did not run out of disk-space, before resolving to the configuration-related resolution.

    You seem to have a too low maximum size for your innodb_data_file_path in your my.cnf, In this example

    innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend:max:512M
    

    you cannot host more than 512MB of data in all innodb tables combined.

    Maybe you should switch to an innodb-per-table scheme using innodb_file_per_table.
