Got a huge crash today, right after initializing my first MariaDB database (see below). Got several more errors about tables having crashed later on, and MariaDB wouldn't even start up any more (I wound up wiping the entire database). So, my question is, what could cause MariaDB to fail so horrendeously?! I though InnoDB was supposed to be *better* than myisam!? Is is because maybe Windows 10 doesn't give MariaDB enough time to shut down gracefully? Could it be because a Windows scheduler job (potentially) aborts the fetcher script when it's still running? (Again, I though InnoDB was supposed to be transaction-safe). In its current state, MariaDB is completely unusable for me. And no, I don't have hard disk errors. :) Seriously, though, I could use some major insight!
