Hello,
I have a problem: Some time ago I used MySQL 4.1.16 on an Intel ARM processor
with kernel 2.4.27 and all went well. Some time ago I upgraded to kernel 2.6.18,
but now the MySQL server doesn't start correctly. At the first time it prints:
InnoDB: The first specified data file /home/ibdata1 did not exist:
InnoDB: a new database to be created!
061109 15:12:05 InnoDB: Setting file /home/ibdata1 size to 10 MB
InnoDB: Database physically writes the file full: wait...
061109 15:12:06 InnoDB: Log file /home/ib_logfile0 did not exist: new to be created
InnoDB: Setting log file /home/ib_logfile0 size to 5 MB
InnoDB: Database physically writes the file full: wait...
061109 15:12:07 InnoDB: Log file /home/ib_logfile1 did not exist: new to be created
InnoDB: Setting log file /home/ib_logfile1 size to 5 MB
InnoDB: Database physically writes the file full: wait...
But after that nothing happens. The mysql.sock does not appear and any attempt
to connect to the server times out. With kernel 2.4.27 the above-mentioned
messages appears and direct afterwards the server also prints:
InnoDB: Doublewrite buffer not found: creating new
InnoDB: Doublewrite buffer created
InnoDB: Creating foreign key constraint system tables
InnoDB: Foreign key constraint system tables created
061102 13:53:57 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 0
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: '4.1.16' socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' port: 3306 Source distribution
But this does not appear now. After a restart the server says:
InnoDB: No valid checkpoint found.
InnoDB: If this error appears when you are creating an InnoDB database,
InnoDB: the problem may be that during an earlier attempt you managed
InnoDB: to create the InnoDB data files, but log file creation failed.
InnoDB: If that is the case, please refer to
InnoDB:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/error-creating-innodb.html
061109 14:57:20 [Note] /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: '5.0.27' socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' port: 3306 Source distribution
Now the server seems to run correctly !?! But it keeps printing the warnings
each time. Of course I checked the above-mentioned web page, but all the
proposals do not hold in my case.
Anyone a solution or observed something similar ? Any idea ?
Thanks,
Michael
