How do I repair an InnoDB table?

Question

We (apparently) had poorly executed of our Solaris MySQL database engine last night. At least some of the InnoDB tables are corrupted, with timestamp out of order errors in

Answer 1

Step 1.

Stop MySQL server

Step 2.

add this line to my.cnf ( In windows it is called my.ini )

set-variable=innodb_force_recovery=6

Step 3.

delete ib_logfile0 and ib_logfile1

Step 4.

Start MySQL server

Step 5.

Run this command:

mysqlcheck --database db_name table_name -uroot -p

After you have successfully fixed the crashed innodb table, don't forget to remove #set-variable=innodb_force_recovery=6 from my.cnf and then restart MySQL server again.
