MySQL table is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed


I was repairing this table suddenly server hanged and when I returned back all tables are ok but this one showing 'in use' and when I try to repair it doesn't proceed.

ERROR 144 - Table './extas_d47727/xzclf_ads' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed

What can I do to repair it?


Solution

  • If your MySQL process is running, stop it. On Debian:

    sudo service mysql stop
    

    Go to your data folder. On Debian:

    cd /var/lib/mysql/$DATABASE_NAME
    

    Try running:

    myisamchk -r $TABLE_NAME
    

    If that doesn't work, you can try:

    myisamchk -r -v -f $TABLE_NAME
    

    You can start your MySQL server again. On Debian:

    sudo service mysql start
