I ran into an InnoDB issue that only seemed to get worse as I tried to fix it. Started with InnoDB: Unable to lock ./ibdata1, error: 11, I moved and then copied it back. I soon had an ib_logfile issue as well, resolution failed, and at this point I realized that there was indeed still a mysql process running that I missed, so I killed it with killall -9 mysqld. Previous resolution attempts to this point have now brought me to the point of an Assertion failure. At this point I'm just trying not to trip over my own feet.

I've started the DB in recovery mode (level "3") and dumped my DB's. About 7gb total. The error, when not in recovery mode, is this:

This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help
diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, 
something is definitely wrong and this may fail.

key_buffer_size=33554432
read_buffer_size=131072
max_used_connections=0
max_threads=500
thread_count=0
connection_count=0
It is possible that mysqld could use up to 
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_threads = 1125975 K  bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

141206 16:02:34 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid ended

At this point, will dropping and restoring the DB's be the next step, or is there something more or less invasive that should be done?

    Not just to be glib, but at this point, and probably even a couple points ago,I would have just restored form backups and been done with it. You do have backups to restore from, don't you? Dec 6, 2014 at 17:05

In general case innodb_force_recovery mode is supposed to let a user to start InnoDB and dump valuable data.

A common belief InnoDB will heal tablespace after enabling innodb_force_recovery. No, it won't. (In some cases you can fix a tablespace dropping particular tables, but that's another story).

If you are lucky enough and MySQL starts the next step is to take dump from the database

mysqldump --skip-lock-tables -A > my_database.sql

Then you need to wipe out all InnoDB files, and restore the database from the dump

mysql < my_database.sql

  • Yup! This is exactly what I did shortly after posting this. I moved all ibdata and ib_logfile files and InnoDB table files/directories and restarted MYSQL. Worked like a champ.
