MySQL Error 3624: Column Statistics Storage Failure
Description
This error indicates that MySQL encountered a problem when attempting to store or update column statistics for a specified column within a table. This typically occurs during `ANALYZE TABLE` operations or automatic statistics updates, preventing the optimizer from having up-to-date information for query planning.
Error Message
Unable to store column statistics for column '%s' in table '%s'.'%s'
Known Causes
4 known causesInsufficient User Privileges
The MySQL user performing the operation lacks the necessary permissions to write to the system statistics tables (e.g., `mysql.column_stats`).
Low Disk Space
The disk partition where MySQL stores its system tables (including statistics) has insufficient free space, preventing new data from being written.
Corrupt System Tables
The internal MySQL system tables responsible for storing column statistics might be corrupted or in an inconsistent state, preventing updates.
Concurrent Table Operations
Other concurrent operations on the table or system tables might be holding locks, preventing the statistics update process from acquiring necessary write access.
