Re: Error 126 Incorrect key file for table

Change it in my.ini:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/server-options.html#option_mysqld_tmpdir
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_tmpdir
If you change the my.ini value, it will take effect when you restart mysql.

But... Is that the real problem? What query were you performing? Did it involve a "temporary" table? Perhaps an ALTER or CREATE statement?

Since you are in the MEMORY forum, I assume you have ENGINE=MEMORY ? I can't see how error 126 would apply, but I will make another guess... The MEMORY table you are trying to build has index(es) and is rather large. If so, you probably need a bigger value for max_heap_table_size
