user error: Incorrect key file for table './ltu/cache.MYI'; try to repair it

Due to spam, accounts are not functional immediately, but have to wait for approval by a moderator. This is noted when you get the welcome email. This may take awhile since I have other things on my plate, and the welcome email suggests contacting me if your account remains inactive for too long. The account creation process works fine.

Because of a known issue with our Drupal installation, trying to recover passwords etc. when accounts are inactive, or when the user supplies an unknown account name or email address gives an error message. This is only a user experience issue, the server doesn't crash or anything like that.
