HelioHost Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 Johnny's crash last month scrambled the mysql innodb tables. We managed to repair them enough to get them available in read-only mode so people could take backups. Everyone who needed a backup has surely made it themselves by now, so we're bringing innodb tables back online in read-write mode. It is likely that some innodb data has been lost, but you should be able to restore the backup you took and restore your database yourself. If you failed to take a backup in the allotted time we may be able to help you. Just let us know. As always we highly recommend using myisam instead of innodb. If you have no idea what either of those are don't worry about it too much because we have myisam set as the default. Innodb is fairly delicate and pretty much anything can corrupt it causing data loss. Myisam is pretty much impossible to corrupt. We've never lost any myisam data in the entire 13 years we've been providing hosting. Innodb on the other hand crashes fairly often. Let us know if you have any questions.
