mysql_upgrade failed - innodb tables doesn't exist?

Question

I am upgrading my mysql-5.5 docker container database to mysql-5.6 docker container. I was able to fix all other problems. Finally my server is running with 5.6. But when i run mysql_upgrade i am getting the following error.

Just spin up a 5.6 container. Why use docker like a VM? – Perisarc

@user2105108, I am just starting new 5.6 container with the 5.5 container data volume. This was the part of data migration to the new version of MySQL. – Sepaloid

Answer 1

This is a known bug in MySQL 5.6, it is documented here.

According to the replies to the bug report, you can manually create the missing tables. The structure of the missing tables is provided as attachment here.

Steps to follow:

1. Drop these tables from Mysql:

   innodb_index_stats innodb_table_stats slave_master_info slave_relay_log_info slave_worker_info

2. Delete *.frm and *.ibd files for the 5 tables above.

3. Create the tables by running the following queries:

CREATE TABLE `innodb_index_stats` (
  `database_name` varchar(64) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,
  `table_name` varchar(64) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,

4. Restart your MySQL server.

5. Run the mysql_upgrade script.

Yonit

Thanks @jocelyn, this seems to be a working solution. But i found simple way of doing this. – Sepaloid

Hi, everytime I run the queries I get the following error from MySQL: #1813 - Tablespace for table 'mysql.innodb_index_stats' exists. Please DISCARD the tablespace before IMPORT. And I can't DROP or DISCARD the tablespace :( – Quarto

@Quarto Same issue here. Did you find any solution? – Cypriot

I don't remember. But you could try to use the app MySQLWorkbench to do the job. – Quarto

where do you delete the *.frm and *.ibd files from? – Twirp

@Twirp From MySQL data directory. – Yonit

@jocelyn Thanks! i was able to find it. – Twirp

@Quarto When that happens, you have to go into /var/lib/mysql/mysql and manually remove those tables i.e. rm -f slave_master_info.* Then, restart mysql Then, recreate the tables as above – Washerwoman

Brilliant solution – Patagium

Answer 2

UPDATED Fix For: MariaDB 10

6 tables (includes gtid_slave_pos table)

note: MariaDB and MySQL have different GTID implementations that are not compatible with each other.

Use at your own risk.

I had same woes with missing tables and can confirm this worked for me on CentOS 7, jumping from MySQL 5.x to MariaDB 10.0.29. The upgrade appeared initially to have been seamless. – Candiot

Lifesaver, also worked for me on Debian Stretch. This seems the simplest workaround. Don't know where exactly I went wrong. But I did a clean mysql install, removed it, installed MariaDB and imported my tables. Seemed to work okay until I did a backup / sqldump – Simmons

Answer 3

I was able to fix this by deleting /var/lib/mysql/ibdata* files from the old container(5.5). I am copying content inside /var/lib/mysql directory of my old container(5.5) to the new container(5.6) /var/lib/mysql. It's working if i skip copying /var/lib/mysql/ibdata* file.

Found that these are tables are added/removed in mysql-5.6. Copying/Using old ibdata files leads to inconsistency with innodb tables and ibdata files. Though the .frm,.idb files are present, because of older ibdata its failing.

As mentioned in this link, tried to delete that file and mysql_upgrade finished successfully.

The ibdata* data files created by mysql_install_db are corrupt and must be trashed before starting mysqld !

I got the "table doesn't exist" errors when trying to do a backup of my database. I was able to use FRANKLIN's MariaDb script after performing these steps, required because of errors such as

ERROR 1813 (HY000): Tablespace '`mysql`.`slave_worker_info`' exists.

The steps:

1. Copy engine_cost.frm (arbitrary selection) as each associated .frm file

2. Execute mysql -p mysql to start the command interpreter.

3. Drop each table.

4. Quit the command interpreter.

5. Stop the database server.

6. Delete the orphan .ibd files.

7. Restart the database server.

8. Run FRANKLIN's script to create the missing tables.

Answer 5

on MariaDB I found this solution, first remove old frm and ibd files and run mysql_upgrade with --force if required

cd /opt/zimbra/db/data/mysql/
mv innodb_*frm gtid_slave_pos.*frm ~
mv innodb_* gtid_slave_pos.* ~

~/common/bin/mysql_upgrade -S/opt/zimbra/data/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock -u root --password=$mysql_root_password --force

Additional note to already given answers, if you happen to run MariaDB 10.x on Windows-based machine and experience the error in log file such as

[Warning] InnoDB: Table mysql/innodb_table_stats has length mismatch in the column name table_name. Please run mysql_upgrade

it is enough to run the tool from MariaDB's bin folder

\mysql_upgrade.exe -u root --password=xxx --force

and the tool will do it's magic to fix whatever needs to be fixed.
