I am using MySQL Utilities to recover a table schema from .frm file. Every time I run mysqlfrm command in default mode, I get this message:
Starting the spawned server on port XXXX ... ERROR: Spawn server operation failed. To diagnose, run the utility again and use the --verbose option to view the messages from the spawned server and correct any errors presented then run the utility again.
So I run the same command using -verbose. This time the message is:
Starting the spawned server on port 5974 ... ERROR: Port 5974 in use. Please choose an available port.
If I change the port and run command using -verbose:
Starting the spawned server on port XXXX ... ERROR: Spawn server operation failed. To diagnose, run the utility again and use the --verbose option to view the messages from the spawned server and correct any errors presented then run the utility again.
Running command in --diagnostic mode I get:
Reading .frm file for wp_commentmeta.frm:
# The .frm file is a TABLE.
ERROR: Cannot read column header.
Any idea?
