Check a Database for Errors
If you are experiencing problems using any database related software you have installed on the server, you may check your databases for errors.
To check a database:
- In the Check DB drop-down menu, select the database you wish to check.
- Click Check DB.
- cPanel will run a script that checks to make sure the database is functional. The results will appear on a new screen.
- If cPanel detects a problem in the database, it will indicate which table is corrupted.
- If the Check Complete message appears without a notification that the database is corrupted, then the database is functional.
