The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Mysql Error - cant connect to server on localhost

Asked by gublooo in MySQL Server

Tags: ,

Hello,
I've been using my local computer for development purposes. I have MySql 5.1 installed and till yesterday everything was working fine - I was able to connect to it.

From today morning - I'm getting this error.
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

When I look in the services - it does show Mysql status as "Started"
When I look at the processes that are running - I still see the mysqld running
But I'm not able to connect to it either through command prompt or toad or my java program.

I looked at the location C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\data and I see a file with extension .err which was modified the same time mysql started throwing this error.

I looked into the file - its pretty huge - but these are the kind of messages it contained

080921  4:10:21  InnoDB: Assertion failure in thread 2660 in file .\fil\fil0fil.c line 4073
InnoDB: We intentionally generate a memory trap.
InnoDB: Submit a detailed bug report to http://bugs.mysql.com.
InnoDB: If you get repeated assertion failures or crashes, even
InnoDB: immediately after the mysqld startup, there may be
InnoDB: corruption in the InnoDB tablespace. Please refer to
InnoDB: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/forcing-recovery.html
InnoDB: about forcing recovery.
080921  4:10:21 [ERROR] C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\mysqld: Got signal 11. Aborting!

080921  4:10:21 [ERROR] Aborting

080921  4:10:21  InnoDB: Starting shutdown...

I think my db has been corrupted - but I have no idea why this happens. How can I recover from this and prevent this from happening again.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
