Re: How well does CF run with mySQL?

I don't know how CF works together with SQL 7 but I run it with SQL  6.5 and
it works extremely well !

CF runs just fine with MySQL on Linux.

Again, the question was - how well does CF run with MYSQL on a Linux
maching, not Microsoft SQL7 on an NT box.

  Microsoft makes it pretty simple to migrate an Access DB to SQL7 Server.

In theory it might - but if you use Access specific syntax in CF templates,
there could be a major editing job to do to actually get it to run with SQL
Server. An example is the Access "yes/no" or "true/false" which are
reserved
column names for SQL Server. SQL Server uses "1/0".

This notion of "prototyping" with Access then upsizing to SQL Server has
too
many issues IMO - especially when it is just as easy to use SQL Server
from the
outset.

How well does CF run with mySQL?

Is it better to go with SQL7 or Oracle 8i?

I am doing a prototype app with Access but now need to port to a stronger 
database program.

Any suggestions?

I understand Cold Fusion 4.5 still does not have direct native support for 
mySQL, true or false?

Thanks for your help.

How well does CF run with mySQL?

I use mySQL and SQL Server 7 with Cold Fusion 4 on NT and they both run
fine.  The thing you need to be aware about mySQL is that it does not
enforce Foreign Keys.  This means you cannot have the database itself
enforce data integrity.  For example, you might have a person table and a
phone table like so:

Person Table
PersonID
Name
Age

Phone Table
PhoneTypeID ( work, home, day, night, mobile )
PersonID
Number

In SQL Server, Oracle and other relational databases, you can have it setup
so that you cannot insert a PersonID into the Phone table unless it exists
in the Person Table.  In mySQL, there is no way to enforce this except by
first checking the Person table with your application, then inserting into
the Phone table.

mySQL also does not have stored procedures.

But mySQL is very, very *fast* because it is missing these features.  It was
made this way on purpose.  There are some surprisingly large sites that use
mySQL, none of which I can remember at the moment.  I know several start ups
that are using mySQL and are very happy.  Eventually they'll make the move
to SQL Server or Oracle, but for now mySQL does the job well.

Roy.
