Geeklog Forums

I have been using geeklog for quite awhile now. Today my site crashed. When I try to access my site I get this error: 1016: Can't open file: 'gl_blocks.MYD'. (errno: 145) I have absolutly no idea how to fix this problem. Up until now, I have had no trouble at all with geeklog, and nothing has changed on my server. thanks.

"gl_blocks.MYD" is one of the files used by MySQL, so it seems something happened to your MySQL install. You should contact your hosting service or, if it's your own server, think about using a backup of your database ... bye, Dirk

You can also try a table check to see if it's corrupted and can be repaired. 4.4.6 Using myisamchk for Table Maintenance and Crash Recovery http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Table_maintenance.html

Thank you very much for the replies. I glad I made the effort to backups of the MySQL database. I did a Restore of the gl_blocks table, and all is well again. Again, thanks for your help. scott

This Problem was not an accident. This was done deliberately, and It has come to my attention that GL is exploitable by using a header flood. > just letting you know I found a security hole > your script is volunerable to header flooding. > and its down. > e.g. exploitable, so fix it
