WordPress database error: incorrect file format for comments

  • I’ve been away from my blog for a few weeks and haven’t touched a thing, but am now getting a wordpress database error that my comments are in an incorrect form. Here’s the error message:

    WordPress database error: [Incorrect file format ‘wp_comments’]
    SELECT COUNT(*) FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = ‘0’

    I also get the following message:

    WordPress database error: [Incorrect file format ‘wp_comments’]
    SELECT comment_author, comment_author_url, comment_ID, comment_post_ID FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = ‘1’ ORDER BY comment_date_gmt DESC LIMIT 5

    I’ve tried to repair the database but the error seems to be with wordpress and not with my host. What else can I do?
