Re: MySQL and N800

[Demetris]

Hey Tony,

from your experience, where do you think I can drop the java libs (if I 
can find them)
in your port to be able to use them for java client connectivity? Just 
in case you may

have a clue .. ;)

Thanks

Hi Demetris,

I haven't tried any Java applications myself; it's a language I tried to learn 
many years ago and gave up because I found its OO nature too painful to use.

My guess would be that it would just be a matter of picking up the necessary 
libraries from wherever they can be found (the MySQL website?) and putting them 
in the right place. If my understanding of Java is correct, then the bit-code 
is architecture-independent. Though my understanding may well be flawed...

Re: MySQL and N800

[Bjoern Ricks]

Hi,

my current package development can now be found on
http://gitorious.org/maemoized-packages/maemoized-packages
I started nearly from scratch and dropped all perl dependencies. It should
be possible to run mysqld without any perl script. Mysql upstream ships some
perl based helper scripts which I didn't include in the new packages.
Because I am not an expert in bash scripting nor in familiar in detail with
init.d I could really need help with the post,pre installer scripts. That
part is still missing compared to the original debian packages.

regards
Bjoern

 Hi,

 the last weeks I tried to get a new version of mysql to extras-devel (
 http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/pool/fremantle/free/m/mysql-dfsg-5.0/).
 Therefore I updated the old version to the version from debian stable but I
 didn't tested the package carefully. At the moment the package has many
 disadvantages. The perl dependencies of that package are really bad,
 packages are to big for the N900 and mysql is installed in root dir. Now I
 am trying to get a new mysql version (latest of the 5.0 series) for maemo

 that work in the next weeks and upload a new package. Any help is

the maemo repos I saw a few links to mysql server and client

Hi,

as I said before I didn't tested the packages carefully and therefore I
didn't know the different perl packages on maemo sdk and the devices. The
current package does depend on perl thus it is not possible to install
mysql-server or mysql-client on the device. I really would like to remove
the perl dependencies or reduce them to perl-base. But I am not a perl
expert. Also I would like to use cdbs because imho it is easier to handle
(and to change). Maybe it is possible to set up a public repo where we can
work on mysql together. It would be really great if different people can
maintain mysql for maemo.

Re: MySQL and N800

[Demetris]

So judging from what Jeremiah is saying below, the mysql binaries in 
these repository are functional?
Some of them have dates from 2010 so they are very recent so I am 
assuming these are active ports.
Unlike Bjoern, when I am able to install the common libraries but when I 
try to install the server it
fails (on the N800) giving errors on files it cannot find. Any ideas? 
Bjoern can you share how you

install the debian bins in your case?

Hi Demetris,

You should find my port of MySQL in the repositories for the N800. 
Unfortunately it's only version 4.1.22, as the SDK for that platform wasn't 
up-to-date enough to build later versions. I've been using it successfully with 
Perl-based applications for quite a while now. You may need to port whatever 
Java libraries are needed (I only did the Perl DBI/DBD modules), but the DBMS 
is available.

Reference for anybody wanting MySQL on the N900, I've got it working 
successfully (version 5.0.89) on Diablo, but haven't yet had time to sort out 
the process of getting it into Extras as I'm currently too busy with other 
priorities (same goes for Apache). As soon as I get time I'll get them into 
Extras; meanwhile if anybody's in desperate need, get in touch and I'll let you 
have pre-release debs.

Hi Demetris,

You should find my port of MySQL in the repositories for the N800. 
Unfortunately it's only version 4.1.22, as the SDK for that platform wasn't 
up-to-date enough to build later versions. I've been using it successfully with 
Perl-based applications for quite a while now. You may need to port whatever 
Java libraries are needed (I only did the Perl DBI/DBD modules), but the DBMS 
is available.
