  So PLEASE!!! if someone can help me
  Thanks in advance

 Find the correct path for the mysql directory. I think it might be in
 /usr/bin/*mysql* and /var/lib/mysql. Try typing locate mysql, or find /usr
 -name "*mysql*"

 Then chown those files.

Help restarting mysqld !!

2001-04-19 Thread Martin Cabrera Diaubalick

Hello everyone! This is the first time I post here, so please bear with me.

It all started when I deleted a whole table by mistake. So I try to
recovered it by copying yesterday's backup. I had never done that before and
it all worked wrong. I found out MySQL server had to be restarted in order
to changes take effect.

I kill mysqld daemon with a 'kill PID', but I didn't know how to restart  it
.I tried with a 'mysqld'  but as soon as I close the Terminal Window, mysqld
died.
Then I tried with 'mysqld ' and it crashed after a while.
Finally I found this nice little script below, I executed it but due to my
ignorance I don't if what I did is right. Everything seems to be ok right
now but I'm not sure if it's gonna crash in a while.

Could you please take a look at it and tell me what you think.


Thanks in advance

Regards

Well the truth is situation is not about my English or not about me to pay

That's all.

[Fwd: Replication non working with Innobase]

2001-04-19 Thread Nicola Sabbi





Hi,
I'm using two Mysql 3.23.36 with Innobase tables on two machines running
Redhat 7.0.

I'm trying to use replication in a simple master/slave configuration,
but while it works
when I use MyIsam tables, if one of the two machines tries to use
Innobase tables
the replication doesn't work, both when they are configured to do it
manually
and when I manually start the slave and launch

load table news from master;

in this last case after some seconds the slave complains of a network
error (although the master
is alive and configured properly).

Follows an excerpt from the log of the master,

?func: general: Host: www2.MIOSITO.it  ip: 193.207.81.207
vio_keepalive: enter: sd=9, set_keep_alive=1
vio_is_blocking: exit: 0
 vio_write: enter: sd=9, buf=0x82afad0, size=54***
HERE IT WRITES SUCCESSFULLY 54 BYTES ON SOCKET 9
vio_write: exit: 54
vio_is_blocking: exit: 0
vio_read: enter: sd=9, buf=0x82afad0, size=4
*HERE IT CAN'T READ 4 BYTES FROM THE SAME SOCKET
vio_read: error: Got error 11 during read -1, 4294967295
vio_read: exit: -1
?func: info: vio_read returned -1,  errno: 11
thr_alarm: enter: thread: T@2051  sec: 5
thr_alarm: info: reschedule
vio_is_blocking: exit: 0


So it seems the socket has been closed (maybe by the slave?).

Does anyone have any suggestion?

I'd also like to know if someone has Innobase replicating correctly, and
if so what versions of  c++ and libstdc++ he/she is using,
I don't know if gcc is preferrable to egcs-g++.

Thanks very much
Nico

Re: Plase Let us know if there is a Racialism for Mysql product and quit

2001-04-19 Thread René Tegel

Yusuf,

i don't understand why you are so angry and are trying to fight it out on
this list.

1. Loads of computer-related things are vulnerable for different
explanations. especially with software that is easily ported between
platforms, it's also easy to have a manual that is not dedicated for one
platform and thus now and then one makes mistakes in interpration. There
will be thousands of other things to discuss about, but there is never
reason to get angry

2. All people joining this list are volunteers. They answer just what they
think, and i never discovered somebody being not honest. Maybe somebody is
wrong, but we all make mistakes. Every sentence said is the author's
personal knowledge and/or opinion.

3. Nobody ever blamed you for not being native english. Only thing said was:
read carefully, and if it's not working, think twice about what's being
said.

4. I'd love it if all software was that well documented as mysql, and that
easy-to-use

Last but not least: i hope you have a nice time programming and researching,
which looks like a better thing to do for me than wasting your time blaming
people for things nobody really did wrong. Let's discuss things technically,
ok?

regards,

rene

Are there any suitable training materials on your website?  In particular, 
how can I best use the GUIs in WinMySQLAdmin?

Try a few of the websites already mentioned in other postings.. I think 
www.devshed.com is a nice place to start.. But you can find plenty others 
in the manual.txt found in the sourcedir..

Ynt: Plase Let us know if there is a Racialism for Mysql product and quit

2001-04-19 Thread Yusuf Incekara

Dear Ren ,

First of all i apologize from all mysql list and
all mysql team (except one :)   )
I think this is a virtue that realizing when to stop and when to apologize.

your product and your documentation works fine
and i am not directly blaming anyone related to this product.
The problem is not in documentation nor in product.

well like i said in my last mail this situation is become too personal
between two person.
That's why i am stoping to write about this subject.

you 're 100%  right in your mail
and again sorry for wasted time for all list members.
Regards.

Yusuf Incekara

 Yusuf,

 i don't understand why you are so angry and are trying to fight it out on
 this list.

 1. Loads of computer-related things are vulnerable for different
 explanations. especially with software that is easily ported between
 platforms, it's also easy to have a manual that is not dedicated for one
 platform and thus now and then one makes mistakes in interpration. There
 will be thousands of other things to discuss about, but there is never
 reason to get angry

 2. All people joining this list are volunteers. They answer just what they
 think, and i never discovered somebody being not honest. Maybe somebody is
 wrong, but we all make mistakes. Every sentence said is the author's
 personal knowledge and/or opinion.

 3. Nobody ever blamed you for not being native english. Only thing said
was:
 read carefully, and if it's not working, think twice about what's being
 said.

 4. I'd love it if all software was that well documented as mysql, and that
 easy-to-use

 Last but not least: i hope you have a nice time programming and
researching,
 which looks like a better thing to do for me than wasting your time
blaming
 people for things nobody really did wrong. Let's discuss things
technically,
 ok?

 regards,

 rene

  Let me try to explain. Question is about being open and honest.
  That means if you have an opinion you can easily defend this opinion in

  And have to tell this in every platform as your opinion.
  If theese opinions are rude so you are rude. But this is you are.

Hi,

I have a list of words entered into a search engine held in a database. I
wish to be able to select the top 10 words held in the database. I've
fiddled around with ORDER DESC, DISTINCT and LIMIT etc but I can't hit upon
the SQL syntax to obtain the correct result. Can someone please shine a

Re: set column's default to a function

2001-04-19 Thread Pawel

Hello,
I have a rather easy question, but for some reason I can't figure it out.
What I want is a column that will indicate when the record was added, but
not when it was modified. I know a timestamp column will do the first half
of the trick, but not the other half.
The prefect solution would be to set the default of a datetime column to
whatever NOW() returns, but that doesn't seem to work as when I try to set
the default, it changes the string 'NOW()' to '-00-00 00:00:00'.

Is it possible to set the column's default to a function ?

A dirty solution would be to create 2 timestamp columns, so only the first
one would get updated when the record gets modified, but I didn't get a
chance to try that.

Any thoughts, comments ?

Thanks in advance

Pawel

Re: Corrupt tables after long queries (fwd)

2001-04-19 Thread Sinisa Milivojevic

Peter Skipworth writes:
 Hi all,
 
 Has anyone experienced anything like the following ?
 
 I have several queries which, admittedly, are quite complex and operate on
 several million rows of indexed data. The tables are naturally locked
 while the query occurs, which is fine, but what is *not* fine is that
 occasionally, completely unrelated tables end up needing a repair after
 the long query has completed. 
 
 The only pattern I can see is that towards the end of the query, I see a
 hell of a lot of "Opening table"  "Closing table" status messages in the
 processlist - as soon as I see this, I can assume that the mentioned
 tables will have become corrupted - see a sample processlist below.
 Any ideas ?

Hi!

What we need is a repeatable test case, i.e. a set of tables and
script that will always lead to table corruption.

Re: sql_create_basic_N questions

2001-04-19 Thread Sinisa Milivojevic

Steve Newell writes:
 NOTE: I have cross-posted this to the plusplus mailing list as well.
  
  
 I am using sql_create_basic_N to generate structures that mirror my database
 tables.  The problem I have is that some of the fields in my database are
 "blobs" that need to be escaped before insertion.
  
 Questions:
  
 1. I am using a string to represent the data in the structure:
 
 sql_create_basic_2(StoryBody, 0, 0,
INT32, StoryID,
string, Body);// this is actually a blob
 
 Is there a better data structure for this?
  
 2. The data that I am trying to store has nulls scattered throughout.  When
 I create the insert string using the following code, it only puts in the
 data up to the first null.  That's a side effect of the string, so I have
 tried escaping the string before I create the insert statement.  That
 doesn't seem to work either.  Apparently, MySql is ignoring the escaped
 characters.
  
 
 StoryBodysb;
  
 sb.StoryID = -1;
 string tmpS(blobSize, blob);
 sb.Body = tmpS;
  
 escape_string(sb.Body);
  
  Query q = m_dbconn-query();
  stringstream strbuf; 
  
  try {
   string tmpQS = "INSERT INTO STORYBODY (Body) VALUES('";
  
   strbuf  "INSERT INTO STORYBODY (Body) VALUES("  quote   sb.Body
  ")";
   q.exec(strbuf.str());
 } catch(BadQuery e) {
 // handle error here
 }
 
 Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  
 Thanks,

Hi!

No you should use sql_create_3. 

Please take a look at custum1.cc and custom3.cc examples.

PROBLEMS UNDERSTANDING FLOAT/DOUBLE COLUMN TYPES

2001-04-19 Thread Keith Stokes

PROBLEMS UNDERSTANDING FLOAT/DOUBLE COLUMN TYPES

First could you clarify the contradictions from the following extracts of
the manual.


7.3 Column types

The column types supported by MySQL are listed below. The following code
letters are used in the descriptions: 

M Indicates the maximum display size. The maximum legal display size is
255. 
D Applies to floating-point types and indicates the number of digits
following the decimal point. The maximum possible value is 30, but should
be no greater than M-2. 

Square brackets (`[' and `]') indicate parts of type specifiers that are
optional. 

Note that if you specify ZEROFILL for a column, MySQL will automatically
add the UNSIGNED attribute to the column.


FLOAT[(M,D)] [ZEROFILL] 
   A small (single-precision) floating-point number. Cannot be
unsigned. Allowable values are -3.402823466E+38 to -1.175494351E-38, 0 and 
1.175494351E-38 to 3.402823466E+38. The M is the display width and D is the
number of decimals. FLOAT without an argument or with an argument of =
24 stands for a single-precision floating point number. 
DOUBLE[(M,D)] [ZEROFILL] 
   A normal-size (double-precision) floating-point number. Cannot be
unsigned. Allowable values are -1.7976931348623157E+308 to

1.7976931348623157E+308. The M is the display width and D is the number of 
 decimals. DOUBLE without an argument or FLOAT(X) where 25 = X = 53
stands for a double-precision floating point number.

7.7 CREATE TABLE syntax

DOUBLE[(length,decimals)] [UNSIGNED] [ZEROFILL]
FLOAT[(length,decimals)] [UNSIGNED] [ZEROFILL]
DECIMAL(length,decimals) [UNSIGNED] [ZEROFILL]
NUMERIC(length,decimals) [UNSIGNED] [ZEROFILL]


As you can see from the above the FLOAT/DOUBLE columns cannot be unsigned
or can they?.

Second problem what is "Allowable values are -3.402823466E+38 to
-1.175494351E-38, 0 and  1.175494351E-38 to 3.402823466E+38 "
in real numbers I.E. how many digits?.


Thanking you in advance

Problems connecting to MySQL via PHP

2001-04-19 Thread Craig Pickup

I have MySQL running on our server with Apache and php4.

If I try connecting to MySQL server via php I get the error:

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server 
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in...

The socket is there and is created when MySQL is restarted. When I run

mysqladmin --socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock version

this seems to indicate that the socket is working okay.

Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

Thanks

LIMIT

2001-04-19 Thread Toby Miller

Hey all,

I've been using the LIMIT feature for paginating in MySQL for a long time now. It's 
really nice and makes paginating extremely simple. Up until now I've been using a 
dictionary object to get the same effect out of Microsoft SQL Server. Do any of you 
know a LIMIT equivalent for SQL Server? I would much rather grab the number of records 
I need rather than grabbing a reference to all of the records and only displaying the 
ones that I need. It seems redundant and I really hate the fact that LIMIT is not 
supported. Any ideas? By the way, suggestions for SQL Server 6.5 or SQL Server 7.0 are 
both appreciated.

Thanks,
Toby




[Fwd: Replication non working with Innobase]

2001-04-19 Thread Heikki Tuuri

Nico,

does the table you are trying to replicate contain rows
with more than 8000 bytes of data?

InnoDB (= Innobase) cannot store longer rows. Arbitrary length BLOB and TEXT
fields are on the TODO list for June 2001.

Does the slave hang also for other queries you try to do
on the slave's InnoDB tables?

Regards,

Heikki Tuuri
Innobase Oy

Hi,
I'm using two Mysql 3.23.36 with Innobase tables on two machines running
Redhat 7.0.I'm trying to use replication in a simple master/slave
configuration,
but while it works
when I use MyIsam tables, if one of the two machines tries to useInnobase
tables
the replication doesn't work, both when they are configured to do itmanually
and when I manually start the slave and launchload table news from master;
in this last case after some seconds the slave complains of a network
error (although the masteris alive and configured properly).
Follows an excerpt from the log of the master,

?func: general: Host: www2.MIOSITO.it  ip: 193.207.81.207
vio_keepalive: enter: sd=9, set_keep_alive=1vio_is_blocking: exit: 0

vio_is_blocking: exit: 0vio_read: enter: sd=9, buf=0x82afad0, size=4

thr_alarm: enter: thread: T@2051  sec: 5thr_alarm: info: reschedule
vio_is_blocking: exit: 0

So it seems the socket has been closed (maybe by the slave?).
Does anyone have any suggestion?
I'd also like to know if someone has Innobase replicating correctly, and
if so what versions of  c++ and libstdc++ he/she is using,
I don't know if gcc is preferrable to egcs-g++.Thanks very much

[Fwd: Replication non working with Innobase]

2001-04-19 Thread Heikki Tuuri

Nico,

it came to my mind that possibly 'load table from master' uses
LOCK TABLES to speed up processing in the slave. In 3.23.36
there was a bug with LOCK TABLES in connection with InnoDB
(named the Wisconsin bug).

It might help if you download and compile the new 3.23.37
from the MySQL website. The Wisconsin bug and also other bugs
in connection with signal handling and setting of thread priorities
have been fixed there.

Regards,

Heikki

 For instance, say the book price is
 $19.44. You also have a base cost of $18, and 8% tax. You can always write a

For all the people who've never designed long-term databases, it should be stated:

If you sell a book or buy a book at a given price, nothing says that price will be
the same the next day.

books: id, name , price
sales: id, date, customer
soldbooks: book_id, sales_id, price - this is the price, copied from "books.price"
at the time of creation of the new entry because the book price might change in the
future, and then your sales history is wrong.

RE: LIMIT

2001-04-19 Thread Johnson, Gregert

SQL Server will allow you to limit a SELECT to the first n rows, but not (to my 
knowledge) to skip a number of rows before returning the desired rows.

The mechanism used is SET ROWCOUNT (6.5 and 7.0) or TOP (7.0).  The difference is that 
SET ROWCOUNT limits the output rows before applying an ORDER BY sort.  TOP applies the 
ORDER BY before limiting output.

C API problem

2001-04-19 Thread john1

Dear Sir :

MySQL 3.22.32 on my linux 486 PC seems work so good. When I compile 
a simple C API program which catched from MySQL tutorial, it
chokes at the end of compile process . The program is as follows:

#include stdio.h
#include mysql.h

#define def_host_name NULL
#define def_user_name NULL
#define def_password  NULL
#define def_db_name NULL
 
MYSQL *conn;

int main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
conn=mysql_init(NULL);
mysql_real_connect(
 conn,
 def_host_name,
 def_user_name,
 def_password,
 def_db_name,
 0, /*port defaut*/
 NULL,  /*socket default*/
 0);/*flag*/
mysql_close(conn);
exit(0);
}

I compile as follows:

gcc -o my_code my_code.c -I/home/MySQL/MySQL/include \
   -L/home/MySQL/MySQL/lib \
-lmysqlclient

Then I get :

/home/MySQL/MySQL/lib/libmysqlclient.a(my_open.o)In function 'my_open':
my_open.o(.text+0x14):undefined reference to 'open64'
/home/MySQL/MySQL/lib/libmysqlclient.a(mf_format.o)In function 'fn_format':
mf_format.o(.text+0x201):undefined reference to '__lxstat64' 
/home/MySQL/MySQL/lib/libmysqlclient.a(my_open.o)In function 'my_open':
my_open.o(.text+0x21):undefined reference to 'fopen64'

Nothing left to do with the situation, I beg your help. Anyway I'm a 
newcomer. Thank you very much.

That, or increade the amount of allowed connections, or decrease the

If you use pconnect, you should have more allowed connections than

Reference question and auto increment

2001-04-19 Thread Fates

I am trying to understand references in tables and using primary keys with
auto increment option as a reference to all tables:

What is the best way to reference other tables?  I have three tables:
menus, categories, and links.  I also have an ID field in each table that
uses the autoincrement option and is the primary key which is used to
reference the other tables.  This works great for referencing except when
a record is deleted. When a record is deleted and you add another record
the ID is not assigned the deleted records ID instead it skips the deleted
record ID and uses the next ID when you would expect it to use the deleted
ID which then causes problems with query to display all records from all
tables.  Maybe if I could use REPLACE to replace the deleted record that
might work.

I guess the solution is to create a new field common to all tables called
record_id and not use the auto increment option and enter the record ID
manually for each record I add.  The problem with this is I have to
remember what the previous record was if I want it to be in order. Is
there a better way to do this.  I like the auto increment option. 

I saw an example where three tables all contain a customerid which links
all the tables together.  Lets say I delete a customerid in one table but
not the others. Does the database automatically delete the other
cutomerids in the other tables that correspond to the customerid that was
deleted or is it up to the programmer to delete the other two id's.

Re: Run time version of MySQL

2001-04-19 Thread Mikel

My sugesstion is that you get yourself a decent old workstation, one that you would 
probably consider ready
for retirement if it were to still be running MS something...Like say a p200ish 
machine with a couple of
gig on the disk and say 32 but prefereably 64M of ram. Slap a cheap NIC, like the 
SMC1211tx, in it and get
that thing up on the net. Now get fBSD loaded on it and install MySql from the ports. 
If you don't have a
good inet connection then shell out the $30 dollars for the fBSD CD set, then you can 
have everything up
and running in less than 3 hours, seriously.

Now you are ready to give it a test drive and providing you've used old gear, I'd 
estimate you've spent a
grand total of $50. You can now give pretty much all of the free DB's a try and decide 
for yourself. of
course if you've a good inet connection you can download everything for free and 
you've spent a whaping $0.

Cheers,
Mikel

SuSe 7.0 and glibc-2.2-9

2001-04-19 Thread Stefan Geis

Hi,

I am using SuSe 7.0 with glibc-2.2-9 installed and installed mySql from
SuSe's ftp server with yast. Contrarily to my normal experience this did not
work:

All errors I detect (by making mysql_install_db or by starting the daemon
with mysqld --skip-grant ) come down to the following error message:

error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++--libc6.2-2.so.3
Could not open shared object file: file or database missing

..which is correct, as in my case I only have
libstdc++--libc6.(!)1(!)-2.so.3
I am using glibc-2.2-9 and I though only earlier versions cause problems
with mySql
Is there a way to tell the daemon to look for this .so (if he can use it as
well) instead of the one he tries to look for ? Or do I have to get a new
"glibc-2.2-9 ?

Thank you in advance

Stefan Geis

Could you send us your opinions about MtSQL. It will greatly help us to

I love MySQL.. but there are others too. I think their are still some pros 
and cons.. given time I think the pros will increase..
Although other databases might have some appealing pros.. the question is 
how important they are to you.. and how bad are the cons..
Sorry, but I cannot answer that question. That's up to you..

Which database to choose does depend on your needs. If you want to let PHP 
interact with MySQL you'll find lots of code already written by others.. 
free to use.. many PHP functions..
How important it is.. well.. once again.. thats up to you to decide.

Not much fun in talking about this.. if you search this lists archive you 
will find quite a few discussions.. and comparisons..

Remember every list will find it's "own" database the very very very best..

"select word, count(word) as total from search_words group by word order by

to locate the top 20 words in a database of website search engine words.

The database had been altered to include an extra column, other than the

How can I modify the sql query above to exclude any row(s) in 'word' with

Problem

2001-04-19 Thread Amit

You see I have written a small chat server is perl where when a user wants
to chat he simply types the message it gets recorded into mysql and another
program keeps reading the mysql databse and shows the messages. Now, the
same is not yet deployed; but, I fear when I deploy it the program will
collapse because everytime a person wants to chat the program will open a
new connection; put the data and close connection and similarly for the
frame in which the chat is displayed. It will open the conenction and close
every 5 seconds. Now, is there any way in perl where in a connection
can be opened up continously or something else. Any input would be highly
appreciated.

max FULLTEXT index size?

2001-04-19 Thread Braxton Robbason

Hi all,

I'm creating a fulltext index on a 400MB table, and the creation process
gets very slow. It's fast for the first 50MB of the index, and then it
grinds to what seemed like a halt after days.  My question is - is there
anyone who's created fulltext indexes on this much data who can assure me
that it's possible?

Merge tables are not an option because you can't query a merge table on a
fulltext index.

thanks,
Braxton

Re: Reference question and auto increment

Why would you want to re-use the deleted ID?
That would be a poor design.

When you insert a new record with an autoinvcrement, last_insert_id()
will tell you what it
is so you can insert it in dependent tables.

Re: LIMIT

Believe me, it's not my first choice  I hate working with M$ as much as
the next guy. Unfortunately, not every project leans in the direction I want
it to. As far as the LIMIT function goes I think MySQL has spoiled me. The
only easy way to do pagination in ASP is through the ADO Object. The problem
is that I won half the battle by getting to use PHP, but I lost the MySQL
battle so I'm left with this dilemma. I think using the TOP declaration that
I'll be able to come up with some workarounds in Stored Procedures.

Sorry for mentioning M$ here, but it seemed like a question that has most
likely terrorized at least a few other people on the list so I figured it
was worth a try.

Subject: Correct syntax?


Thanks for help from this group I'm using

"select word, count(word) as total from search_words group by word order by
total
desc limit 20"

to locate the top 20 words in a database of website search engine words.

The database had been altered to include an extra column, other than the
'word' column. This means that 'word' can now have a null entry sometimes.
How can I modify the sql query above to exclude any row(s) in 'word' with
'NULL' please?

regards, Graham

Re: [Fwd: Replication non working with Innobase]

2001-04-19 Thread Heikki Tuuri

Sasha and Monty,

Nico had a problem in replication with InnoDB tables. Luckily
3.23.37 seems to solve his problems. But, meanwhile I was studying
'load table from master' and noticed that it uses a function
net_read_dump which is only defined for MyISAM tables.
The following printout is from 3.23.34 on Win NT, where I was able
to get replication working for InnoDB, but 'load table from master'
failed.
.
Innobase: Started
mysqld: ready for connections
010419 20:46:21  Slave thread initialized
010419 20:46:22  Slave: connected to master 'repl@localhost:3306',  replication
started in log 'omnibook-bin.008' at position 432
010419 20:47:09  create_table_from_dump::failed in handler::net_read_dump()
010419 20:47:09  fetch_nx_table: failed on create table
..

An obvious workaround is to alter an InnoDB table to MyISAM (in master),
do then 'load table from master' (in slave) and after that do ALTER TABLE
back to InnoDB in master. The slave will repeat the ALTER TABLE and the
end result is an InnoDB table which is identical on both systems.
Another workaround is to make a 'binary' backup of the InnoDB database,
as described in the InnoDB manual, of the master and copy the backup
then to the slave.

For 'load table from master' to work directly for InnoDB tables the MySQL
developer responsible for replication should program an alternate
method of transfer which uses SQL statements.

Regards,

Heikki

Hello,
I solved all problems using 2.23.37 with redhat 7.0 + gcc-g++ and relative

Maybe it's a problem related to egcs*

 Nico,

 does the table you are trying to replicate contain rows
 with more than 8000 bytes of data?

 InnoDB (= Innobase) cannot store longer rows. Arbitrary length BLOB and TEXT
 fields are on the TODO list for June 2001.

 Does the slave hang also for other queries you try to do
 on the slave's InnoDB tables?

 Hi,
 I'm using two Mysql 3.23.36 with Innobase tables on two machines running
 Redhat 7.0.I'm trying to use replication in a simple master/slave
 configuration,
 but while it works
 when I use MyIsam tables, if one of the two machines tries to useInnobase
 tables
 the replication doesn't work, both when they are configured to do itmanually
 and when I manually start the slave and launchload table news from master;
 in this last case after some seconds the slave complains of a network
 error (although the masteris alive and configured properly).
 Follows an excerpt from the log of the master,
 
 ?func: general: Host: www2.MIOSITO.it  ip: 193.207.81.207
 vio_keepalive: enter: sd=9, set_keep_alive=1vio_is_blocking: exit: 0
  vio_write: enter: sd=9, buf=0x82afad0, size=54***
 HERE IT WRITES SUCCESSFULLY 54 BYTES ON SOCKET 9vio_write: exit: 54
 vio_is_blocking: exit: 0vio_read: enter: sd=9, buf=0x82afad0, size=4
 *HERE IT CAN'T READ 4 BYTES FROM THE SAME SOCKET
 vio_read: error: Got error 11 during read -1, 4294967295
 vio_read: exit: -1?func: info: vio_read returned -1,  errno: 11
 thr_alarm: enter: thread: T@2051  sec: 5thr_alarm: info: reschedule
 vio_is_blocking: exit: 0
 
 So it seems the socket has been closed (maybe by the slave?).
 Does anyone have any suggestion?
 I'd also like to know if someone has Innobase replicating correctly, and
 if so what versions of  c++ and libstdc++ he/she is using,
 I don't know if gcc is preferrable to egcs-g++.Thanks very much
 
 Nico

consult the MySQL manual, that you can find in the Docs directory.

To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server

See the manual for more instructions.

NOTE:  If you are upgrading from a MySQL = 3.22.10 you should run

You can start the MySQL daemon with:

You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench'

RE: Run time version of MySQL (Detail)

2001-04-19 Thread Braxton Robbason

John,

I don't think anyone can say for sure which is 'better'.  MySQL is used in a
different kind of environment than Oracle.  Oracle is designed for an
enterprise environment, where many different applications are used
simultaneously to add or retrieve data from a central data store. MySQL is
designed more for web applications, where data is maintained and accessed
through a smaller set of programs. Many people have set up very successful
MySQL web applications.

It is easier and cheaper to administer mysql, and it is faster, but less
external software is designed for it. For example, if you might use an
external business intelligence tool, it will work with Oracle, but it might
not work with MySQL, even through ODBC.

In my mind, the two main problems with MySQL are:
1) lack of derived tables
2) lack of subqueries

I'm in the process of switching from Oracle to MySQL. The main reasons for
doing this were:
1) price.
2) administration. I can do DBA stuff on Oracle, but it's much easier and
faster to do it on MySQL. Things that take a long time and significant study
on oracle don't even require you to think about them on mysql.
3) hardware. Given hardware can handle much more data much faster on MySQL.
4) support. Oracle has a vested interest in keeping discussion of its
product hidden inside proprietary tech support databases.  Thus problems in
the product are not obvious until you hit them.  I didn't want to buy oracle
support (they told us it started at $10k).
5) focus. Where is Oracle heading? Towards selling services and other
applications to enterprise customers.  They don't want small customers, and
they don't want to make the product easier to use. They sell the product to
conservative managers who are willing to spend extra money to ensure they
have something that will do what they want, and Oracle will do most things
if you spend enough money on consultants and hardware.


hope this helps.

MyODBC Installation Troubleshooting

2001-04-19 Thread Miguel Angel Solórzano

Hi,

We have noticed that some MySQL users are having problems to install the
MyODBC driver, receiving errors messages like this:

An error occurred while copying C:\windows\system\mfc30.dll.
Restart windows..

Generally this happens because the ODBC core stuff is ready installed
and the MyODBC setup doesn't have the support to verify this and tries
to re-write the files. The best work around for this problem is to copy
the myodbc.dll on \windows\system ; \winnt\system32 and make its registry
in the Windows system registry.

To make the MyODBC registry you could use a batch file sent for us by
Jim Michaels (see below) and take up the following steps:

Create on the same directory which there is the myodbc.dll a batch
file e.g: my.bat. Paste the command lines showing below and edit
the lines with the Windows\system directory with the correct path
of your machine environment. Run the bat.
If the myodbc.dll already exists on the system directory, remove
the line copy myodbc.dll C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.
Put attention that every echo line should be not split.

Regards,
Miguel

Dynamically changing Sort order

2001-04-19 Thread Dennis Gearon

Given the following table:

Name varchar(128),
CodePageEncoding varchar(32)

that a select like this could be done

select Name, CodePageEncoding
from table
group by CodePageEncoding
order by CODE_PAGE_SENSITIVE_FUNCTION(CodePageEncoding, Name);

This would produce a report/resultset like the following:

NameIn_Armenian_SortedInArmenian |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_English_SortedInEnglish   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_English_SortedInEnglish   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_English_SortedInEnglish   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_English_SortedInEnglish   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_English_SortedInEnglish   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_Russian_SortedInRussian   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_Russian_SortedInRussian   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_Russian_SortedInRussian   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_Russian_SortedInRussian   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_Russian_SortedInRussian   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_Russian_SortedInRussian   |  CodePageEncoding
NameIn_Russian_SortedInRussian   |  CodePageEncoding


Anyone know how this can be done, or if it can be done in  single SELECT
in MySQL yet?

weird indexing behavior in presense of LIMIT

2001-04-19 Thread Andrey Gubarev

 
I have a very large table, where one of the columns is 
 
color enum("red", "blue", "black")
 
The distribution of values is 90% black, 8% blue, and 2% red. 
 
I want to be able to randomly select 10 rows matching a certain color from
the table.
 
Of course, 
 
select * from my_table where color = "black" order by rand() limit 10 
 
is very slow because the huge table has to be sorted before the first 10
rows are selected. 
 
So what I did was create another column randomkey, wich is filled with
random integers in the range [0 .. 10^6]. Then I added an index (column,
randomkey). 
 
The following query usually works:
 
select * from users where color = "black" and randomkey  [random value]
limit 10
 
However, the problem here is that only the first part of the index
(column, randomkey) is used sometimes. 
 
So, if randomkey is 40, mysql basically looks through 40 rows
before it finds randomkey  40.
 
Would anybody have a clue about why this happens? I thought "limit" forced
the use of all available indices.
 
Thanks,
Andrey

Hangs on Installing all prepared tables

2001-04-19 Thread Ryan Quick

I'm sorry to write again, but I've gotten no response and I'm totally stuck.

I'm trying to install the latest version of MySQL on a P3 running Redhat
6.2.  When I run mysql_install_db, it hangs after it reports "Installing all
prepared tables."  I've tried setting different permissions and everything
else I've found in the list archive, but nothing works.  I've tried deleting
everything, including the mysql user and re-making the user, and nothing.

If anyone can tell me what's going on, or point me in the direction to a
solution, I'd truly be grateful.  I'm so frustrated.

Thanks much,
  Ryan

Re: getting started...the hardest part

2001-04-19 Thread Brendan Pratt

Hi Matthew,

From: "Matthew P. Marino" [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 You've got a long way to go. "tar" is short for tape archive. It is an
 ancient unix utility that takes directory and file data and builds it into
a
 contiguous data base file. This is for portability and manageability. You
should
 have to get past "gzip" before you get to "tar". gzip is a gnu compression
 utility. The mysql tarball is tar'd and gzip'd so one normally has to;

 gzip -d mysql.tar.gz
 tar -xvf mysql.tar

What's wrong with doing :-

tar -zxvf mysql.tar.gz

??

Just about all the later tar's work fine like this, and it save doing the
two step. ;)

Well, that's a LONG answer to a short question, but two common places 
to start are

http://www.mnogosearch.ru/
Formerly called udmSearch, this can use MySQL as a backend; 
looks quite nice - Perl  PHP frontends.

http://www.htdig.org/
Not quite sure what it uses for its database, but I'm sure it 
could be hacked to use MySQL.

Two other search engines are Glimpse/WebGlimpse and Swish-E, although 
I don't know a whole lot about them. You could also do a web search 
for 'text indexing', 'intranet search', or something. You have plenty 
of reading material then...

 Hello,
 
 I'm a newbe to Linux and MySQL, but I'm finding it very interesting.
 
 I'll cut right to the chase - I've followed the directions in 
 the manual for the binary install on Linux.  but every time I 
 start up the mysql daemon and do a pstree -laup, it's running as root.
  
 This is on a development / play machine so it's not that big 
 a deal, but my system admin says that I have to run it as user=mysql.
 
 I've tried changing the mysql.server script, the my.cnf file, 
 etc.  I cant figure it out  - how to make it start up and run 
 as user=mysql!?!
 
 Anywho - any help would be appreciated.
 
 Thanks, 
 
 Sean.

Re: Indizes abschalten.

 Geht das bei mySQL auch?

You can answer that yourself. Compare the following:

  EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tabelle WHERE id = 1;

  EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM tabelle WHERE id+0 = 1;

and you will see that the second query, won't use the index.

Olympic style average?

2001-04-19 Thread _ Phade _

Hey,

 Hopefully this isn't a newbie question.  I'm currently using MySQL 3.23.35a
and  I'm looking how to get an "olympic" style average of values in a table
where  the top and bottom n scores are dropped from the average calculation.
Example:

 table: opinions
columns: id, score
values:
 19
 19
 19
 11
 110
 27
 28
 27
 26
 27

 The results would be:

 19
27

 Any ideas on how to write a select query to return the desired results?
Hopefully there is an easy answer.  Thanks in advance for your help.

 Phade.
