I just installed the Community version.  The first thing I tried was to reverse engineer our database.  I am getting an error (count_object: Can't read dir of lost+found Errno:13) .  I try to filter for only the Schema /database I want but I still get the lost+found error.

On the MySQL site it reads: " mysqld incorrectly classifies the lost+found directory as a database location".  However, shouldn't I be able to filter this out and avoid the error?

 Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Allison

Hi Allison,

We have never encountered the problem. Nor someone else has reported it. However, a search on "Can't read dir of lost+found" provides a lot of information on the problem and how to fix it. It seems to be a permission problem with the lost+found directory. ModelRight does not explicitly search that directory or any other, it just queries against the INFORMARION_SCHEMA. It appears that MySQL, however, needs read access to that directory (and possible others). For instance, see more details here: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=15851

It sounds like one way to solve the problem is to do a "chmod +r lost+found" or to upgrade to a version where the problem is fixed. Either way, please post if you have found a fix, for the benefit of other users.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

 
We determined that the server was set up incorrectly and the lost+found file was in the wrong place.  We corrected this and it worked.  

Thanks,

Allison
