MyBB Community Forums

when I try to view the forum display I get this error:

MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.

SQL Error:
145 - Table './linkbeat_mybb/mybb_posts' is marked as crashed and should be repaired
Query:
SELECT tid,uid FROM mybb_posts WHERE uid='1' AND tid IN (278,277)


What does this mean and how can I fix it?

It means the table is crashed and should be repaired... run this query in phpMyAdmin:

REPAIR TABLE `mybb_posts`;

thanks Matt that did it

I also have this problem but i get this message:

MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.

SQL Error:
1040 - Too many connections
Query:
[READ] Unable to connect to MySQL server

I cannot access admin either, it just gives me the same message

For future reference, it's better to make your own thread than bump somebody else's which is on a completely different subject

You need to ask your host to increase your max_user_connections setting.

Ok thanks, I haven't had any traffic through yet though as I have only just started the site> I'll speak to them though
