2009 date change causes posting failure with 500 error?

    I have a problem with 2.7 that started when the date rolled over to 2009.

    When I try and post using textmate, I am returned:

    Error: Could not insert post into the database (500)

    I cannot post new posts or drafts via the dashboard.
    I can edit comments with the dashboard.
    I can post comments from the blog.
    I can delete spam with Akismet.

    All my other DBs that are non-wordpress are working correctly, and I can execute SQL commands on them.

    Any help sorting this would be much appreciated.

    This error was caused by a corrupted wp-posts table.

    Running

    REPAIR TABLE wp_posts

    fixed it.
