Query was empty problem

[uwe]

i'll suggest to get a list of all table names, then using vi, sed or excel sheet create statements like:

check table <table1_name>;
check table <table2_name>;
check table <table3_name>;
check table <table4_name>;
...

and run it in mysql , and take a look at the output ... just in case the reason for the error is that a table is currupted ... maybe its a missing table !

good luck
