Hi Jan, the root cause for the corruption, we know: NFSv4 bugs. The "dump/restore-to-new-db" path we know as well. My question here is: is there a way to get rid of this table _without restoring to a new DB_. thanks, martin On Wed, Jan 28, 2015 at 2:05 AM, Jan Lindström <jan.lindstrom@mariadb.com> wrote:

Hi,

Yes I see the assertion, it is a consistency check. Inside a tablespace (table in this case) every page has space_id stored. This assertion tells us that one page has different space_id than on tablespace header i.e. there is one page that based on metadata does not belong to this table. Furthermore, that means that tablespace could be corrupted. If the instructions on that web page do not help, you need to export all tables, delete everything, import tables to new database. Can you send me full, unedited error log, I will try to see if there is something that could help to identify the real problem. Also if you could send me dmesg output.

Hi Jan,

thanks for your notes. I have gone through the instructions in that doc link, but they do not help. In the prior emails I have included stack dumps and straces of what happens when I follow those instructions.

There is something else going on, or perhaps a regression that prevents the procedure you mention from working right.

We are definitely NOT hitting ENOSPC, nor any FS or storage side issue. I have double checked on that.

cheers,

Hi,

Failure you see on

InnoDB: Error: tablespace id is 47073 in the data dictionary InnoDB: but in file ./moodle_sand/mdl_tag_correlation.ibd it is 48463! 150119 17:14:45 InnoDB: Assertion failure in thread 140045886629632 in file fil0fil.c line 778

indicates database corruption that is caused most likely disk failure or a bug on a software. With this information not easy to say which one. If drop table crashes while the operation is done, deleting .ibd file is not enough to re-create the table because table definition is on innodb data dictionary while it is not on MySQL/MariaDB data dictionary. Please refer to

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/innodb-troubleshooting-datadict.html how to resolve the issue.

Hi Folks,

We run a very large infra on MariaDB/RHEL6.x/RHEV/NetApp; thousands of VMs, each running MariaDB and very busy. MariaDB is 5.5.32.

We recently had some NFS problems which led to minor DB corruption. Luckily, the corruption was isolated to a table holding cache data, and in fact one that is empty in most of our instances. That's the good news.

The bad news is that the data dict is really unhappy about that table.

- Cannot drop it, we get a nasty stack trace at [1]

- Stopping MariaDB, removing the table by hand, restarting MariaDB, attempting to re-create the table hits a data dict error [2]. On disk I can see it created an ibd file, but no frm file. Following the instructions at

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/innodb-troubleshooting-datadict.html does not help.

I have straced the process, and it does not seem to even try to create the frm file, so it really looks like it's internal state (data dict), not errors from further down the stack. OS / kernel logs are clean.

Is there any reasonable method to cure this "in place" with minimal disruption? (These are large DBs, dump restore is more than awkward.)

Oh and careful with NFSv4 :-/

thank you!

martin

We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong and this may fail.
