Help! My MySql has crashed!

When I went to visit my blog this morning at http://www.kickstartdaily.com/blog/ all I see is a lot of MySql stuff which ends with 'Table 'e' is marked as crashed and should be repaired.'

How do I repair it and what could have caused the problem?

Thanks,

Martin

Your provider had a MySQL server problem.

Sometimes you can repair the database yourself: if you have phpMyAdmin, and appropriate privileges, it'll display a "repair table" and sometimes a "repair database" link.

Unfortunately, this doesn't guarantee it will be repaired *correctly*. Your best bet is to get your provider to fix it, or to restore the latest backup.
