I'm running MT 3.121 on OS X 10.3 Server. I recently tried to add a new entry and I get the following error message on any template rebuilds:

Build error in template 'Main Index': Error in tag: Couldn't get monthly archive list

Here is the relavant section of my 'Main Index' section:

CODE

<MTArchiveList archive_type="Monthly">
<li><a href="<$MTArchiveLink$>"><$MTArchiveTitle$></a></li>
</MTArchiveList>

I've Googled and searched the forums here and can't seem to find this error reported any where else.

do you have monthly archiving turned on? See Weblog Config/Archive Files

Are you using MySQL? If so, what version of MySQL and DBD::mysql are on your server?

I believe the last person we had with this error needed to upgrade their version of one of those (they had an O/S upgrade on their server but either the MySQL version or the Perl module weren't too compatible with the new O/S).

It turned out to be a corrupted MySQL table.

repair table mt_entry; in mysql did the trick.
