For the past month, I had experienced two incidences of database corruption and data loss whereby the mint_visit SQL database table would get corrupted spontaneously and could not be repaired. The only recourse was to restore from a previous backup.
Technical support at my hosting machine dug deep into the issue and suggested that it was related to high server load imposed by Mint during some auto-optimization procedures done by the app. Further, I was pointed to a previous post on this forum that seemed to be explaining a similar problem: http://haveamint.com/forum/troubleshoot … le_queries
Can someone please help me to make sense of this and on how to prevent this corruption problem?
