<![CDATA[Wordpress failing to boot on DB upgrades]]>Seeing the following error in my logs when trying to boot a long running Wordpress managed app

One or more database tables are unavailable. The database may need to be repaired.

Anyone seen this before or have ideas on how to fix?

what would be the complete command to repair the database from the app's terminal with wp cli

The command would just be simply wp db repair according to the WP CLI documentation. For reference, the actual impact of that statement is documented in MySQL's documentation directly.

Then, what would be the complete command to repair the database from the app terminal with wp cli?

I am not 100% sure that is safe to run all the time.

I have seen here: https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/db/repair/
that there is a command to repair database from wp cli.

Database is automatically repaired on app restart? If not, what would be the complete command to repair the database from the app's terminal with wp cli?

Thanks a lot.

This got fixed by executing "repair table options;" from the mysql prompt.

Can you send us a mail to support@cloudron.io with ssh access and I can look into it. thanks!

I noticed the app was broken and have tried restarting the app and it keeps failing with the same DB failure, not sure if it correlates to a recent Cloudron upgrade.

I have seen that error message before when the some database tables are missing or some plugin was installed which changes the database table prefix. Do you recall installing any plugins recently?
