Errors Privelege tables and columns

[goodguy]

Hello again,

I have a question about an error in MySQL

The /var/log/mysql.log error:
051104 14:59:28 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:28 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'columns_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'columns_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'columns_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'columns_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
051104 14:59:36 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't open file: 'columns_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)

I tryed to repaire this error with /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/ mysql_fix_privilege_tables but it doesn’t work. I get still the error:

ERROR 1016 at line 4: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
ERROR 1016 at line 5: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
ERROR 1016 at line 6: Can't open file: 'columns_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
ERROR 1016 at line 12: Can't open file: 'tables_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)
ERROR 1016 at line 13: Can't open file: 'columns_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)

So i tryed to find the filename: find / -name tables_priv.MYI –print and the filename is in /var/lib/mysql/mysql/. that’s good because the other filenames are there too. I checked the permissions and thats 660.

I had change the permissions to 777 on the hole directory but that will not solved the problem. Can anybody help me with this problem?

Hi boydverbeek,

The errno 138 is the following error....




MySQL error code 138: Unsupported extension used for table



It seems that your database file was renamed somehow, the extention MYI is actually used for MySql Index and not for the tables.
