[gentoo-user] [slightly O/T] mysql problems

[Mick]

Hi All,

This may be slightly off topic, but I thought of asking here first.  I noticed 
two problems, one specific to a particular database, the other more general.  
In reverse order:


1. I am getting this error when I start mysqld

141014 19:41:38 [Warning] /usr/sbin/mysqld: unknown option '--loose-federated'

Sure enough I seem to have this in /etc/mysql/my.cnf:

# Uncomment this to get FEDERATED engine support
#plugin-load=federated=ha_federated.so
loose-federated

As far as I recall this is a default setting.  Should I change it?


2. A particular database which I have imported locally from a live site gives 
me loads of this:

141014 19:41:37  InnoDB: Operating system error number 2 in a file operation.
InnoDB: The error means the system cannot find the path specified.
InnoDB: If you are installing InnoDB, remember that you must create
InnoDB: directories yourself, InnoDB does not create them.
141014 19:41:37  InnoDB: Error: trying to open a table, but could not
InnoDB: open the tablespace file 
'./website1@002dnew/webform_validation_rule_components.ibd'!
InnoDB: Have you moved InnoDB .ibd files around without using the
InnoDB: commands DISCARD TABLESPACE and IMPORT TABLESPACE?
InnoDB: It is also possible that this is a temporary table #sql...,
InnoDB: and MySQL removed the .ibd file for this.


Is this some error imported from the live site, or is it due to something 
being wrong locally?

Any ideas how to fix this?
