Description:
Hi,

Version 5.0.16 is also crashing, but with more info in syslog.
Without the delayed the query works fine.
On another 5.0.16 server the query also works fine so maybe a bit of 
load is needed.

insert delayed into xwi_login_failures (ipa, gsku, name, pass, serial, 
sid, msg, time) values (0,0,"","",NULL,0,"",0);

ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query

I was unable to repeat with current source code on Linux and with 5.0.18
on Windows. Which package are you used? our binaries or Debian's?

Thanks in advance.

Debian packages. I can't reproduce it on a less loaded server either, so I guess some load is required.
Does the stack trace provide any hints?
[5 Jan 2006 23:19] MySQL Verification Team
Can you provide the dump for the table with enough rows for to do the test?

If yes you can upload it at:

ftp://ftp.mysql.com:/pub/mysql/upload

Thanks in advance.
[6 Jan 2006 15:41] Olaf van der Spek
There are 5799457 rows in the table (118934 kbyte), but it appears to not depend on the number of rows as on a second server with the same number it doesn't crash either.

I think it depends on the 'load' (other server activity).
[26 Jan 2006 2:20] o s
I've noticed the same exact behavior but on Ubuntu (a Debian derivative).

It is extremely difficult to reproduce because it always happens under heavy load (2500+ delayed inserts per second with 80+ clients). But no 24 hour period ever passes without a crash.

Here are my delayed insert settings:

delayed_insert_limit 5000
delayed_insert_timeout 300
delayed_queue_size 10000
max_delayed_threads 20
max_insert_delayed_threads 20
[27 Jan 2006 16:32] o s
Some additional information on my previous entry:

I have tried to run the application with no DELAYED inserts, but the crashes still persist, so this bug is probably different from the one reported originally by Olaf van der Spek. 

The crashes only occur on a very heavily loaded system. The crashes occur on the following binaries:

Linux AMD 64 5.0.17 Standard
Linux AMD 64 5.0.18 Standard
Linux AMD 64 5.0.18 Debug

There is never a stack trace in the error log, just the following message:

mysqld got signal 11;
This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose
the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong
and this may fail.

key_buffer_size=8589934592
read_buffer_size=4190208
max_used_connections=94
max_connections=250
threads_connected=94
It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_connections = 10435606 K
bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

The machine has 32GB of memory so that is not an issue.
[3 Feb 2006 7:33] Olaf van der Spek
I've noticed the data in the tables used is getting corrupted. Sometimes the values are length-prefixed (binary), sometimes left padded.
[14 Feb 2006 11:47] Valeriy Kravchuk
Is this table created in 5.0.x or in previous version of MySQL?
[14 Feb 2006 12:50] Olaf van der Spek
In a previous version.
[8 Mar 2006 14:01] MySQL Verification Team
Thank you for the feedback.
Are you able for to test this issue making a dump from the previous
version and to reload in 5.0.18 version?. There are similar issues when
an upgrade was done over a previous version.

Thanks in advance.
[8 Mar 2006 19:36] Olaf van der Spek
Would a truncate table also recreate the able in the new format?
And is there a way to find out the format version?
[9 Mar 2006 13:09] Olaf van der Spek
Recreating the table appears to be a work around.
[30 Mar 2006 4:03] Wade Bowmer
I've found a situation very similar to this bug in 5.0.19. As far as I can determine (and I'm still digging), MyISAM tables created as version 7 or older - that's MySQL 4.0 or older - with VARCHAR() fields crash a database thread on a DELAYED INSERT. Re-creating the table appears to solve the problem because it creates them as version 10.

As it happens, I created a new table, renamed tables and did an INSERT ... SELECT ... from the old table, but I imagine an ALTER TABLE [table name] TYPE=MyISAM would work.

Wade.
[5 Apr 2006 12:21] Jim Driscoll
I'm seeing something very similar on RHEL4/5.0.19:

0x8177920 handle_one_connection + 1438
0xbd6080 (?)
0xb0623e (?)

That's on an INSERT DELAYED... VALUES... Although it's far from reproducible, it does always happen on the same table name in this case (different databases, perhaps, but the same table name). The table structure is:

CREATE TABLE `nuke_blocked_pagetracker` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `id_tracker` int(11) default NULL,
  `last_page` varchar(250) default NULL,
  `page_date` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
  KEY `id_tracker` (`id_tracker`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1

Previously I've seen this behaviour on indexed (and not since OPTIMIZEd) TEXT columns, but that's clearly not the case here.

Redoing the insert to the same table structure (ie, a newly created table using the above statement) is fine; redoing the insert to the same table (assuming not much else happened in the interim) is fine.

Example statement:

thd->query at 0x8fb8ff8 = INSERT DELAYED INTO nuke_blocked_pagetracker (last_pag
e ,page_date ,id_tracker) VALUES ('/modules.php?name=Top', '1144072611', '133')

With this same style of statement, we've also had some:

Stack range sanity check OK, backtrace follows:
0x815a810
0xbdb8b8
Stack trace seems successful - bottom reached

...which is plainly wrong.
[6 Apr 2006 21:12] MySQL Verification Team
I was able to repeat this issue with server 5.0.21 and not with server
5.1.9 following the below procedure sequence:

Create tha database and table with server version 4.0.XX:

miguel@hegel:~/dbs/4.0> bin/mysql -uroot db55

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

    ->  `ipa` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
    ->  `gsku` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
    ->  `name` varchar(9) NOT NULL default '',
    ->  `pass` varchar(8) NOT NULL default '',
    ->  `serial` varchar(22) default NULL,
    ->   `sid` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',

    -> ) ENGINE=MyISAM;

Then just copy the database and its table to 5.0.XX data directory
and issue the insert delayed command:

Miguel: If you can reproduce this reliably, try doing the same but with "OPTIMIZE TABLE xwi_login_failures" run from the MySQL 5.0 client after the table's been copied over, but before the INSERT DELAYED, or if that still causes the problem, try "ALTER TABLE xwi_login_failures ENGINE=MyISAM" as mentioned by Wade above.

I don't know about everyone else, but if I can work around this with some simple SQL commands, then I want to do that. However, of course, Miguel may be encountering a different problem with the same basic symptom...

It turned out that the above fix did not cover the whole problem.

The correct fix does also solve Bug#13707, Bug#17294, and Bug#16611.

The problem was that copying fields converted old varchar fields to new varchar fields. This resulted in a different interpretation of the record contents between the foreground thread and the delayed insert thread.

Mysql 5.0.23-20060619 (cvs) bugs too on insert delayed.
if i set max_delayed_thread to 0 , the mysqld don't crash...

Sample trace: 

mysqld got signal 11;
This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose
the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong
and this may fail.

key_buffer_size=681574400
read_buffer_size=1044480
max_used_connections=45
max_connections=400
threads_connected=2
It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_connections = 1892796 K
bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

Attempting backtrace. You can use the following information to find out
where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went
terribly wrong...
Cannot determine thread, fp=0x83e7d9c8, backtrace may not be correct.
Stack range sanity check OK, backtrace follows:

New value of fp=(nil) failed sanity check, terminating stack trace!
Please read http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Using_stack_trace.html and follow instructions on how to resolve the stack trace. Resolved
stack trace is much more helpful in diagnosing the problem, so please do
resolve it

INSERT DELAYED crashed in 5.0 on a table with a varchar that 
  could be NULL and was created pre-5.0 (Bugs 16218 and 13707).
  INSERT DELAYED corrupted data in 5.0 on a table with varchar 
  fields that was created pre-5.0 (Bugs 17294 and 16611).
  
  In case of INSERT DELAYED the open table is copied from the
  delayed insert thread to be able to create a record for the 
  queue. When copying the fields, a method was used that did 
  convert old varchar to new varchar fields and did not set up 
  some pointers into the record buffer of the table.
  
  The field conversion was guilty for the misinterpretation of 
  the record contents by the delayed insert thread. The wrong
  pointer setup was guilty for the crashes.
  
  For Bug 13707 (Server crash with INSERT DELAYED on MyISAM table)
  I fixed the above mentioned method to set up one of the pointers.
  For Bug 16218 I set up the other pointers too.
  
  But when looking at the corruptions I got aware that converting
  the field type was totally wrong for INSERT DELAYED. The copied
  table is used to create a record that is to be sent to the
  delayed insert thread. Of course it can interpret the record
  correctly only if all field types are the same in both table
  objects.
  
  So I revoked the fix for Bug 13707 and changed the new_field() 
  method so that it can suppress conversions.

Pushed to 5.1.12 and 5.0.24.

Documented in the 5.0 and 5.1 changelog:

Using tables from MySQL 4.x in MySQL 5.x, in particular those with <literal>VARCHAR</literal> fields and using <literal>INSERT DELAYED</literal> to update data in the table would result in either data corruption or a server crash. (Bug #16611, Bug #16218, Bug #17294)

5.0.x fix went to 5.0.25 instead.
