 * The error is fixed by emptying the /tmp folder. Unfortunately mine is filling
   up every day with what seem to be wordpress cache files.
 * WordPress database error: [Can’t create/write to file ‘/tmp/#sql_65cd_0.MYI’ (
   Errcode: 122)]
 * /tmp fills up with files with names like…
    tmp4BkZcV tmp8VjgGm tmpCn3A5Z tmpHD9en3
   tmpLatjxg tmpQ6apT5 tmpUWLtqx tmpZ0P8Nf tmpdVanrf tmpiCyvvC tmpmeazaC tmpr6TUGZ
   tmpvTFsts tmpzwEo2f tmp4CJbgQ tmp8W11C6 tmpCnRoSE
 * and contents like…
    <?php //s:10:”ISO-8859-1″; ?>
 * or
    <?php //s:4:”/uk/”; ?>
 * (WP 2.0.1)
