Answer 1

This is a 100% solution. I tried it myself.

myisamchk -r -v -f --sort_buffer_size=128M --key_buffer_size=128M /var/lib/mysql/databasename/tabloname

Answer 2

If your MySQL process is running, stop it. On Debian:

sudo service mysql stop

Go to your data folder. On Debian:

cd /var/lib/mysql/$DATABASE_NAME

Try running:

myisamchk -r $TABLE_NAME

If that doesn't work, you can try:

myisamchk -r -v -f $TABLE_NAME

You can start your MySQL server again. On Debian:

sudo service mysql start
