Piwigo "Maintenance" not repairing database :-(

G'day all,

There appear to be errors in the db which I don't know how to repair. Initially, I couldn't access the Albums>Manage module. Now I can't access History either. Can somebody please provide some insight into this problem?  Here are the errors:

/piwigo_history_summary' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed
/piwigo_category_filters' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed

SELECT DISTINCT id, name
  FROM piwigo_categories AS c
    INNER JOIN piwigo_category_filters AS cf
    ON c.id = cf.category_id
; in /var/www/html/heviifoto/include/dblayer/functions_mysqli.inc.php on line 830


Is there any way that I can re-install piwigo while maintaining the existing database content?

Piwigo version:
PHP version:
MySQL version:
Piwigo URL: http://

Hi

Open a MySQL client (like phpMyAdmin if available on your host) and manually repair the tables (select them and choose "Repair" action)

Re: Piwigo "Maintenance" not repairing database :-(

Thank-you, Mistic. Your comment pointed me in the right direction.

For the benefit of those who may face a similar problem yet need additional guidance, here is how I repaired the damaged tables:

* the subsequent instructions assume that:
your piwigo site is self-hosted
your mysql (or mariadb) user name is ' username '
the name of your database is ' fotodb '
the  name of the damaged table is ' piwigo_damagedtable '

    Login to the shell
    Enter ‘mysql -u username -p fotodb
    Enter ‘show databases;’ to view all databases
    Enter ‘use fotodb;‘ to engage the database
    Enter ‘show tables;‘ to show all tables within the database
    Enter ‘check table piwigo_damagedtable;' to verify that this is the damaged table
    Correct it with ‘repair table piwigo_damagedtable;‘

The above solved the problem for me. Hopefully, it helps you as well.
