Description:
Hi,

Running my alter script using Dynamic tables both MySQLD's (Local and Remote) crashed when adding a TINYTEXT column. This did not happen when binlogging was not turned on.

Creating TABLE_ALTER.t1, please stand by....
Table TABLE_ALTER.t1 Created!!!!!

See attached crash log for additional information

How to repeat:
create a cluster with 2 NDBD and 2 MySQLD's. Give permissions on one MySQLD for remote assess. 

Run the script  perl ./ndb_alter_dd.pl --sock

binlog_alter_crash_debug.log

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has already been fixed in the latest released version of that product, which you can download at

Documented in the 5.1.22-ndb-6.2.9 and 6.0.3 changelogs as follows:

        Adding a new TINYTEXT column to an
        NDB table which used COLUMN_FORMAT =
        DYNAMIC, and when binary logging was enabled, caused all
        cluster mysqld processes to crash.
