error message 12 from storage engine

[styrax]

Suddenly got a message: "1030 Got eror message 12 from storage engine in: [select c.categories_id," followed by a list of other categories.

The message appears after I log in. It replaces the usual 'latest customers' field.

My Admin loads partially but when I try to set 'down for maintenance' all that happens is seen here:

I'm running v.1.3.5 at present


Anyone got any ideas, please!

That's probably a memory configuration problem in your server's MySQL setup.
You'll need to report the error to your hosting company to have them resolve it.

You could try using phpMyAdmin and selected your "categories" table, and then clicking on the "Operations" tab and click on "Optimize table". Then do again for "categories_description" table.
This may or may not improve things somewhat.
You could optionally also click on "Repair table" in the same manner.
If these don't resolve your problem, your hosting company will have to get involved to fix their server configuration problem (probably a lack of sufficient memory).

Thanks Dr. Byte,

Your right as usual! I've contacted my webhost & they admit they are having MySQL problems.
Thanks for helping
