Q: 

mysql error with a large union: Incorrect key file for table '#sql_24b3_61.MYI'; try to repair it

hi..

I am doing a sitewide - query across a large wordpress MU installation.

i am getting this error:

Incorrect key file for table '#sql_24b3_61.MYI'; try to repair it

The table signified, sql_24b3_61 is not part of my db.

Also, the query is very large as it queries across many tables.

It seems to be some configuration setting? because when I shorten the query by almost half it works.

I have set open-files-limit to 10000, but that did not change anything.
