This was years ago and trust me it was corrupt. I think there may have been some issues with InnoDB in those days that made it a bit fragile in that situation.

- falcolas 12y agoMy apologies if it sounded like I was doubting that there was corruption - I was not. I was doubting that merely sending kill -9 to the process was the sole cause of the corruption. More than likely it uncovered the corruption due to having to do recovery against corrupted data.
- kator 12y agoIn the postmortem it seemed that by issuing the shutdown but not waiting for it to complete the database ended up in a strange state that we could never fully recover from. I guess the moral here is tread lightly and take the time to be informed before you just smack something with a club.
