14.2.17 `InnoDB' Troubleshooting
--------------------------------
Menu
* innodb-troubleshooting-datadict Troubleshooting `InnoDB' Data Dictionary Operations
The following general guidelines apply to troubleshooting `InnoDB'
problems:
* When an operation fails or you suspect a bug, you should look at
the MySQL server error log, which is the file in the data
directory that has a suffix of `.err'.
* When troubleshooting, it is usually best to run the MySQL server
from the command prompt, rather than through the `mysqld_safe'
wrapper or as a Windows service. You can then see what `mysqld'
prints to the console, and so have a better grasp of what is going
on. On Windows, you must start the server with the `--console'
option to direct the output to the console window.
* Use the `InnoDB' Monitors to obtain information about a problem
(see innodb-monitor). If the problem is
performance-related, or your server appears to be hung, you should
use `innodb_monitor' to print information about the internal state
of `InnoDB'. If the problem is with locks, use
`innodb_lock_monitor'. If the problem is in creation of tables or
other data dictionary operations, use `innodb_table_monitor' to
print the contents of the `InnoDB' internal data dictionary.
* If you suspect that a table is corrupt, run `CHECK TABLE' on that
table.
