A table cannot be properly queried with the SELECT statement:

Cause

InnoDB corruption.

Most InnoDB corruptions are hardware-related. Corrupted page writes can be caused by power failures or bad memory. The issue also can be caused by using network attached storage (NAS) and allocating InnoDB databases on it.

Resolution

Note: Since the MySQL service's control, logs and configuration file's location is different on the different operating systems, this article provides general command examples only. Check the following article for additional information regarding MySQL on different operating systems
[Linux] Local MySQL server for all databases
For additional information check your operating system and MySQL documentation.

Note: for Windows, see the following article: How to fix InnoDB corruption cases for the MySQL databases on Plesk for Windows?

There are several ways to recover a failed MySQL database:

Firstly, connect to the server using SSH.

I. Force InnoDB Recovery

Stop the affected MySQL service:

# service mysql stop
Back up all the MySQL data storage files. By default, they are located in /var/lib/mysql/

For example:

# mkdir /root/mysql_backup
# cp -a /var/lib/mysql/* /root/mysql_backup/
Set the innodb_force_recovery value under the [mysqld] section in the MySQL configuration file. This option will allow you to start MySQL service and create all databases dump.

For example:

# vi /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
innodb_force_recovery = 1
Start the MySQL service.
- If the service fails to start, set the parameter innodb_force_recovery to greater value and try starting MySQL again.
  Value of the parameter innodb_force_recovery can be from 1 to 6.
  Warning: Only set innodb_force_recovery to a value greater than 0 in an emergency situation, so that you can start InnoDB and dump your tables. Values of 4 or greater can permanently corrupt data files. Therefore, increase this value incrementally, as necessary. Please see more details in the official MySQL Documentation.
- If the service fails to start with an error like:
  
  CONFIG_TEXT: InnoDB: Waiting for the background threads to start
  
  Add directive innodb_purge_threads according to the following article: Unable to start MySQL service: InnoDB: Waiting for the background threads to start
Try to dump all databases:

# MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql -Ns -uadmin psa -Ne"show databases"|grep -v information_schema | grep -v performance_schema > /root/db_list.txt
# mkdir /root/db_backup/
# cat /root/db_list.txt | while read i; do MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysqldump -uadmin "$i" --routines --databases > /root/db_backup/"$i".sql; echo $i; sleep 5; done
- If the dump fails with an error like:
CONFIG_TEXT: Incorrect information in file: './psa/APSApplicationItems.frm' when using LOCK TABLES"`

then increase innodb_force_recovery value, restart MySQL service, and try to dump the databases again. It is better to dump databases one by one, separately. In that case, there is no need to go through restore of all databases once again if restore failed for some reason.
If unable to dump the databases, then try using method II (Copy table content) or III (Restore from the backup) which are described below.
Remove all the MySQL data storage files except the mysql folder. For example:

# rm -rf `ls -d /var/lib/mysql/* | grep -v "/var/lib/mysql/mysql"`
Remove the innodb_force_recovery option from the MySQL configuration file.
Restart the MySQL service:

# service mysqld restart
Check the MySQL log file for any errors.
Restore databases from the dumps made on the 5th step. For example:

# for db in `cat /root/db_list.txt`; do echo -e "Importing $db..."; MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql -uadmin < /root/db_backup/$db.sql; done

II. Copy table contents

Repeat steps #1-4 from the method I to back up all the MySQL data storage files and enable InnoDB recovery mode.
Try to make a copy of a table:

MYSQL_LIN: CREATE TABLE <new_table> LIKE <crashed_table>;
MYSQL_LIN: INSERT INTO <new_table> SELECT * FROM <crashed_table>;
If the copy was created successfully, then replace corrupted table with newly created:

MYSQL_LIN: RENAME TABLE <crashed_table> TO <old_table>;
MYSQL_LIN: RENAME TABLE <new_table> TO <crashed_table>;
MYSQL_LIN: DROP TABLE <old_table>;

Note: Depending on the MySQL version used, it might be necessary to set lower innodb_force_recovery value or remove it from the MySQL configuration file and restart MySQL service to successfully perform the DROP and RENAME operations. Please see more details in the official MySQL Documentation.

III. Restore from a backup

If the instructions above did not help, the only remaining method is to restore the databases from backups. Do not forget to remove the innodb_force_recovery option from the MySQL configuration file before restore.

To restore Plesk-related databases (psa, apsc, horde) see How to backup/restore a Plesk database dump article. For example:

# ls -tl /var/lib/psa/dumps
-rw------- 1 root root 141960 Aug 8 01:03 mysql.daily.dump.0.gz
-rw------- 1 root root 141925 Aug 7 01:03 mysql.daily.dump.1.gz
# zcat /var/lib/psa/dumps/mysql.daily.dump.0.gz | MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql -u admin psa
To restore customer's databases from Plesk backup see the Restoring Data from Backup Archives section in the Administrator's Guide.

Note: If timeouts are encountered when restoring databases, set the wait_timeout value in the MySQL configuration file and restart the MySQL service. For example:

# vi /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
wait_timeout = 1800

@Pedro Telmo,

Hi! After executing the following command:
```
# mysql -Ns -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` -e"SHOW DATABASES" > db_list.txt
```
it should contain the names of all databases that are stored on MySQL server.

Yes Artyom.
