Webgods help! (not as urgent as it sounds)

Hey Bryan, or someone else who knows this stuff. At my site, I’m having an “Error 28 from the table handler”. I’ve read that this is due to an overfilled TMP folder for the MySQL database or some garbage. How do I access this dang folder to empty it? I can’t find it..

Is this your own server and MySQL installation? if not, contact the provider of the hosting space. If it is all our own, hit me back.

Nope, C I Host. I’m still with them (in case you don’t remember, you gave the recommendation over a year ago). I’ve got to call regardless, because now I can’t log into monstercontrols and I find that suspect since I could about thirty minutes ago. Eh, it’ll get fixed. Thanks anyways.

I’m a goddamn genius. I found that TMP folder, and I just started deleting shit all willy-nilly like I’m the boss and know what’s up, right? Boom, my site’s back, I can log into monstercontrols. I can only assume that deleting from the TMP folder does nothing bad, but if it does, why the hell do I have access to it?! I’d delete everything in that folder if I knew I could. I noticed that the folders themselves couldn’t be deleted, but when you try, it wipes the dingleberries out from inside them. I’m smooth.
