Hello,

In order to spare server-traffic for your mysql-server I've been mirroring the most heavily used database-tables
for usage on a local mysql-server as described on your website:

sudo rsync -v -r rsync://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/mysql/hg19/refGene* /var/lib/mysql/hg19/

This worked fine so far, however the current version of the hg19 refGene table seems to be buggy.
When accessed locally it causes the MySQL Server to hang forever. I checked the table using

"check table refGene;"

which gives me

| hg19.refGene | check | warning  | 1 client is using or hasn't closed the table properly |
| hg19.refGene | check | Error    | File './hg19/refGene.frm' not found (Errcode: 13)     |
| hg19.refGene | check | status   | Table is already up to date                                         |

Since /var/lib/mysql/hg19/refGene.frm is present and not empty I assume there is a problem with the original file on the download server.
The error does not occur accessing your public mysql-server, so you might just have to make a fresh copy of the three refGene table files to the download location (hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/mysql/hg19/).

Could you check that?

Thanks a lot for help again :-)

Hello,

I've come across an error mirroring the refseq-tables from your public mysql-server.
I had reported the very same error earlier (see below) and you corrected it successfully in the meantime.
Now it is occuring again.

I assume there is some problem with the way the tables are updated.
It's a bit strange that the error is in the same file of the same table as previously.


Thanks and best wishes,

Arno

Hello,

I have again come across the problem with a faulty mysql refGene table for hg19 from the download server.
I have reported the very same error twice before and it got fixed both times (see below).

Since keeps re-appearing I suspect that there is an error in some script that generates the table or copies it to the download server.

Thanks a lot for the invaluable services you provide to the whole community!

Greetings,

Arno
