MySQL Error 1490: Inconsistent Partition Info
Description
Error 1490 indicates a discrepancy between the partition definition stored in a table's .frm file and what the MySQL server expects or can write. This typically occurs when the server attempts to access or modify a partitioned table, and its metadata is found to be invalid or corrupted.
Error Message
The partition info in the frm file is not consistent with what can be written into the frm file
Known Causes
4 known causesCorrupted FRM File
The table's .frm file, which stores its metadata including partition definitions, has become damaged or unreadable due to disk issues, system crashes, or other factors.
MySQL Version Incompatibility
The table's partition information was created with a different MySQL server version, and the current server cannot interpret it correctly due to changes in metadata format.
Manual FRM File Manipulation
The .frm file was manually moved, copied, or altered outside of standard MySQL operations, leading to inconsistencies that the server cannot resolve.
Incomplete Table Operation
A previous table alteration (e.g., ALTER TABLE) involving partitions failed or was interrupted, leaving the FRM file in an inconsistent or partially updated state.
