This also happens if you’ve messed with the InnoDB Buffer pool settings in my.ini or my.cnf before shutting down the server.

The solution is to shut down mysql and remove the ib_logfile* files from the mysql data dir, and then restart mysql.

As long as the server was shut down cleanly, it should come back up and this error will stop.

That variable in my.cnf is:

tmpdir=/tmp

The above stuff does not help for you? Do you have space left on your hard drive?
