I see, thank you!
But when I try
select myint(5) from test;
(table test exists but has no records), I got the same error.

And here that I have noticed: on a home computer this truoble is not
present.
However on the server and my home PC - the kernel and the system
environment are
almost absolutely identical - FreeBSD 5.4 (cvsup on Tue Jul 26 21:24:24
MSD 2005).
(except SMP support in the kernel and two options sysctl - for
hypertrading on the server).
SysV IPC options are identical too.

Possibly, I've gape any bug report about a problem using SMP kernel?
