Hello,
I'm in a bit of predicament.
I unfortunately was in a position where I ungracefully shutdown my mysql
server. After restarting it, I'm finding that MediaWiki reports "Database
error: Internal error" after any attempt to save an edited wiki page. It's
worth noting that all the changes seem to be accepted, in that if I visit
the page the changes I supplied during the edit are displayed.
I'm trying to debug this problem, for while it seems cosmetic at first,
it's certainly disturbing to my users. Further, I want to learn from this
and figure out how to recover from this...not to mention figure out where
the darn mysql/mediawiki logs are. [[Special:Log]] tells me absolutely
nothing. Not one log entry.
I am running mysql 4.0.21, MediaWiki 1.4.0, Apache 2.0.52 (apache and mysql
stuff comes from XAMPP 1.49a). I can provide more info about this upon
request. I'd also provide pertinent logs...if I could find anything.
I'm hunting around
meta.wikimedia.org and have yet to find anything that
addresses. I also have tried several times to search this email list's
archive via a google mechanism and have yet to succeed (I can't find any of
my old emails from several weeks/months ago when I search for "Matt
England"...even though I can find *some* emails...).
Thanks for any help. Like I mentioned, I'm kind of in a tight spot on this
one.
-Matt
