Answer 1

This is a 100% solution. I tried it myself.

myisamchk -r -v -f --sort_buffer_size=128M --key_buffer_size=128M /var/lib/mysql/databasename/tabloname

Answer 2

I tried the options in the existing answers, mainly the one marked correct which did not work in my scenario. However, what did work was using phpMyAdmin. Select the database and then select the table, from the bottom drop down menu select "Repair table".

• Server type: MySQL
• Server version: 5.7.23 - MySQL Community Server (GPL)
• phpMyAdmin: Version information: 4.7.7

Answer 3

Go to data_dir and remove the Your_table.TMP file after repairing <Your_table> table.
