Problems with MySQL and SNORT after Reboot

Hi,

Thanks for the fast response.

I did run "REPAIR TABLE event" from phpmyadmin and there where no 
problems with that. No Error here.

But when I point my browser to my snort page and select the timeframe 
for the alerts to all I get the error message after a few seconds:

Warning: mysql_query(): Unable to save result set in 
/usr/local/www/snortreport/DB_mysql.php on line 38
Got error 127 from table handler

However if i select a day as a time frame it works and I can select up 
to forteen days. If i select thirty days or every thing logged I get the 
error above.

 From phpmyadmin if I select the database named "snort" and I click on 
the table "event" i get an warning/error message that are as following:

"More than one INDEX key was created for column `timestamp`"

Is that anything serious?

So I hope I have described enought to make any conclutions about this. I 
have also restared both mysql and snort but that does not help either.

Thanks in advance and a happy new year!
