Earlier using 'innodb_force_recovery = 6' seemed to fix that PANIC error. But I don't understand this permission error. I've tried various permissions as well 777, 766, 666, 760, etc etc. I've also ran mysqld_safe as root user, but with same permission error. Also tried different directories without luck. When I log in to the server shell, it won't chroot me to my home directory. Instead it puts me in '/' with error message "no .bash_login. And when I log out I get message "no .bash_logout". I've never had these files in any of my users' directories. Another strange thing just discovered is IE or FireFox display "Forbidden - You don't have permission to access / on this server", on all web sites. So it seems that I have permission problem globally not just within MySQL. What can possibly cause this permission problem? Hard drive corruption? -----Original message----- From: "Daniel O'Connor" doconnor@gsoft.com.au Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2009 01:39:30 -0600 To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Crash!!! > On Thursday 19 March 2009 08:52:18 Squirrel wrote: > > My webserver was working just fine on FreeBSD 6.2 Apache 2.2.11, MySQL > > 5.0.27.
