I have an InnoDB table containing about 5 million records. yesterday I tried to create a FULLTEXT index in one of my columns, but unfortunately the connection was interrupted after a few minutes in the process, so the index was not created.
The problem is that when I try to create the above index again using this command:
CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX TEXT_FULL ON MY_BIG_TABLE(TEXT_COLUMN);
it raises the following error:
ERROR 1050 (42S01): Table 'my_db/#sql-ib131' already exists
at first I thought it was a temporary table called "# sql-ib131" that MySql created to complete my previous index query, and so I tried to delete it using:
drop table `#sql-ib131`;
but MySql returns the following:
ERROR 1051 (42S02): Unknown table 'my_db.#sql-ib131'
(I also tried resetting "sql-ib131" and "my_db / # sql-ib131", but no luck.
: :
SHOW INDEX FROM MY_BIG_TABLE;
FULLTEXT.
