Error
SQL query:

(

SELECT DISTINCT `User` , `Host`
FROM `mysql`.`user`
)
UNION (

SELECT DISTINCT `User` , `Host`
FROM `mysql`.`db`
)
UNION (

SELECT DISTINCT `User` , `Host`
FROM `mysql`.`tables_priv`
)
UNION (

SELECT DISTINCT `User` , `Host`
FROM `mysql`.`columns_priv`
)
UNION (

SELECT DISTINCT `User` , `Host`
FROM `mysql`.`procs_priv`
)
ORDER BY `User` ASC , `Host` ASC

MySQL said:

#1016 - Can't open file: 'procs_priv.MYI'. (errno: 138)

i reinstalled xampp and that error went away, but now i have no option for accessing the privileges page
