If you have started mysqld with
--myisam-recover
, MySQL
automatically checks and tries to repair
MyISAM
tables if they are marked as 'not
closed properly' or 'crashed'. If this happens, MySQL writes
an entry in the hostname.err
file
'Warning: Checking table ...'
which is
followed by Warning: Repairing table
if the
table needs to be repaired. If you get a lot of these errors,
without mysqld having died unexpectedly
just before, then something is wrong and needs to be
investigated further.
