MySQL errors

[NFG]

This forum runs on a machine that's basically Tried & True, not Cutting Edge.  It's been the most stable computer I've ever built, and until a day or two ago, it has never had a database failure.

Twice in the last few days MySQL has simply shut down, which as you can imagine isn't really great.

So for the next few days I might be upgrading or replacing MySQL.  Please excuse any interruptions.  ^_^
