Can't repeat the corruption with current 4.1 from BK tree ChangeSet@1.1849.9.2, 2004-05-20 14:21:30+05:00, ram@gw.mysql.r18.ru Most probably this problem is is gone with the fix of http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=1166

The fix for #1166 should be in 4.1.1alpha because the currently released version of 4.1.1alpha was released in December, 3 months after 1166 was pronounced fixed. I'd try this on 4.0.20 except that I need UTF-8 support. How about a new version of 4.1.1alpha?

Verified fixed in 4.1.2-alpha.

I've experienced the same issue running 4.1.3 on WinXP SP1, issue could be fixed using myisamchk -r (as -e crashaes as reported in separate bug). Corrupted files can be made available on request, let me know. Cheers, Andi

We are very eager to fix all our bugs, especially crushing ones and ones leading to corruption.
But to help us do that we need input from you.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
E.1.6 Making a Test Case If You Experience Table Corruption
If you get corrupted tables or if mysqld always fails after some
update commands, you can test if this bug is reproducible by doing the
following:
* Take down the MySQL daemon (with mysqladmin shutdown).
* Make a backup of the tables (to guard against the very unlikely
* case that the repair will do something bad).
* Check all tables with myisamchk -s database/*.MYI. Repair any
* wrong tables with myisamchk -r database/table.MYI. It is even
* better to use mysqlcheck as it does not require shutting down
* MySQL server
* Make a second backup of the tables.
* Remove (or move away) any old log files from the MySQL data
* directory if you need more space.
* Start mysqld with --log-bin. See section 4.9.4 The Binary
* Log. If you want to find a query that crashes mysqld, you should
* use --log --log-bin.
* When you have gotten a crashed table, stop the mysqld server.
* Restore the backup.
* Restart the mysqld server without --log-bin
* Re-execute the commands with mysqlbinlog update-log-file |
* mysql. The update log is saved in the MySQL database directory
* with the name hostname-bin.#.
* If the tables are corrupted again or you can get mysqld to die
* with the above command, you have found reproducible bug that
* should be easy to fix! FTP the tables and the binary log to
* ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/Incoming/ and enter it into our
* bugs system at http://bugs.mysql.com/. If you are a support
* customer), you can also support@mysql.com to alert the MySQL
* team about the problem and have it fixed as soon as possible.
You can also use the script mysql_find_rows to just execute some of
the update statements if you want to narrow down the problem.

I have send table files (frm, MYD, MYI) to ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/Incoming/corrupted-myisam-20040920.tar.bz2 Use "update items_utf8" command above for reproducing the error.
