    Mysterious MySQL message

    Hi all,

    I got the following MySQl-message:

    Code:
    Got error 28 from storage engine: SELECT a.*, surveyls_title, surveyls_description, surveyls_welcometext, surveyls_url FROM `asdirk_surveys` AS a INNER JOIN `asdirk_surveys_languagesettings` on (surveyls_survey_id=a.sid and surveyls_language=a.language) order by active DESC, surveyls_title
    Googling told me, that I might have a full harddisk, which I guess cannot be true. The only thing I use the server for is a survey-software (limesurvey), which takes up 80 MB. The answered surveys themselves don't take up much space either, since not many respondents have answered yet.

    So, what else could it be?

    Any suggestions? I'd be grateful for any answer.

    It can be, and is, a "full disk" error. That doesn't mean that you've exceeded your personal allocation on the server, but that the server's allocation of storage for a particular task (in this case, probably the log) is full. It should be fixed shortly.

    Re: Mysterious MySQL message

    First off: Thanks for the speedy reply.

    So it is the physical hard drive (or RAID or what have you) and not my allocated space that is running out? That answer at least calms my nerves a bit.

    Many thanks to you and the person who will in the end fix the issue.

    edit: works again now. :-)
