How to Check and Repair a Database in cPanel Print

Manage My Databases includes tools to check a database for errors and attempt repairs.

Check

1. Select the database from Check Database.
2. Run the check.
3. Review any reported table errors.

Repair

1. Select the database from Repair Database.
2. Run the repair.
3. Review the result before testing the application.

A successful repair does not replace a backup strategy. If the database contains important production data, preserve a recoverable copy before making large structural changes.
