 * Pretty much out of nowhere, I seem to get this database error:
 * Database error: [Got error 28 from table handler]
    SELECT DISTINCT * FROM wp_posts
   WHERE 1=1 AND post_date > ‘2005-07-03 00:00:00’ AND post_date_gmt <= ‘2005-07-
   13 10:29:59’ AND (post_status = “publish”) GROUP BY wp_posts.ID ORDER BY post_date
   DESC
 * It appears both when the public tries to view my blog, and when I try to edit
   a post through edit.php. I’ve checked out the database through phpMyAdmin, and
   everything looks to be okay to my [inexperienced] eyes… there’s nothing obviously
   wrong like having everything deleted. I can even still access my old posts through
   there and read them, and I can still make a back-up of the database and stuff…
   I’m thinking I should re-install WordPress after backing up the database, but
   I was hoping there’d be a quicker solution found here.
 * Thanks for your time!
