how to create table with unique 2 column tuple

2001-06-24 Thread Yee Chuan Loh

Hello,

I'm trying to create a table with columns A, B, C, D such that values in
columns A and B are not unique but if you consider them as a paired tuple,
then for every row, value in col A, value in col B is
unique. Furthermore, I'd like to create a index to use for searching
through the database using this unique paired tuple.

Does anyone know how to do this without actually merging columns A and B
together?

Thanks.

RE: how to create table with unique 2 column tuple

2001-06-24 Thread Chris Bolt

ALTER TABLE tblname ADD UNIQUE (column1, column2);

The index will automatically be used if you use it in your WHERE clause in
that order. If you want to do fulltext searching on those columns, repeat
the query with FULLTEXT in place of UNIQUE.

Perl DBI Error 19

2001-06-24 Thread Hannes Niedner

I am having trouble with DBI. I wrote a little script that should update
fields in one table (uid_test) based on values in another table (merge). I
updates one row and then dies with:

 os prompt: blah blah

1   1011877 101
Error during processing for table uid_test

Error 19 (fetch() without execute())

The selected values (primary_id, other_id) are both INT(12) and so are the
fields of the target table (superceded_by, uid_new).

Please have a look at the Perl code snippet below. As I said it works for
the first row. BTW if there is pure sql code that would do the job, I would
be delighted to learn about.

Thanks Hannes



-snippet-
#issue query
$sth = $dbh-prepare ( SELECT primary_id, other_id
FROM merge
ORDER BY other_id
 ) or bail_out (Cannot prepare query from merge);
$sth-execute () or bail_out (Cannot execute query from merge);

while (@ary = $sth-fetchrow_array ()) {
$counter++;
my ($primary_id) = $ary[0];
my ($other_id) = $ary[1];
print $counter\t$primary_id\t$other_id\n;

#update the data in the target table

 So is there any command suffix in mysql that sends the query in the

No, but you can use any of the multithreaded clients available, like
mysqlgui.

Re:Multiple transactions with innodb

2001-06-24 Thread Heikki Tuuri

Hi!

When you issue a consistent read, that is, an ordinary SELECT
statement, InnoDB will give your transaction a timepoint according
to which your query sees the database. Thus, if transaction B deletes
a row and commits after your timepoint was assigned, the  you will
not see the row deleted. Similarly with inserts and updates.

You can advance your timepoint by committing your transaction
and then doing another SELECT.

This is called multiversioned concurrency control.

  User A User B

  set autocommit=0;   set autocommit=0;
time
| SELECT * FROM t;
| empty set
|   INSERT INTO t VALUES (1,
2);
|
vSELECT * FROM t;
  empty set
COMMIT;

  SELECT * FROM t;
  empty set;

  COMMIT;

  SELECT * FROM t;
  --
  | 1|2   |
  --

Thus user A sees the row inserted by B only when B has committed the
insert, and A has committed his own transaction so that the timepoint
is advanced past the the commit of B.

If you want to see the 'freshest' state of the database, you should use
a locking read:

SELECT * FROM t LOCK IN SHARE MODE;

The advantage in multiversioning is that consistent reads do not set any
locks. See also the manual at http://www.innodb.com.

Hope this clarifies the issue.

sql to .php

hey,
i have some sql to create the tables for my small database in a text file
at home i can use sql batch mode to runt he sql commands from this text file.

id like to take this sql code and run it on the mysql server at my free 
webhost, but i dont think i can connect to their mysql server with a client.
i think the only way to get the sql code from my text file to run on the 
remote server is if i make a .php file and re-do everything with php stuff 
wrapped around it.

is there a program that will take my text file of sql commands and turn it 
into a .php file for running, or is there another easy way to do this, 
other than making the .php  :|

Re: ACCESS DB, and MySQL which one better to handle database driv en webpage

2001-06-24 Thread Jack Baty

Just to balance out the conversation, a couple years ago we had developed an 
e-commerce site which was to be prototyped in Access, then moved to SQL Server for 
production. The client decided that they didn't want to pay for the move to SQL 
Server, so we launched with Access as the backend. The database had tables containing 
from several hundred records, to over 100,000 records. The site grew in popularity and 
regularly recieved 10s of thousands of page views per day, each page having up to 10 
or 15 database queries. Before moving to MS SQL Server a year later, we never had a 
single problem with Access. Not one.

Now, that's not *huge* traffic, and I wouldn't recommend trying it today, but it 
certainly suprised me.

Did you compile MySQL yourself or are you using one of the

MyODBC through ADO

2001-06-24 Thread Nipanjan Gupta Rajan

I am working to develope a software package using MS Visual Basic and MySQL, and so I 
want know about connnecting MyODBC through ADO (ActiveX Data Object) of VB. The format 
for ODBC connectivity through ADO is like :: ==
'   ' Open a connection without using a Data Source Name (DSN).
'   Set cnn1 = New ADODB.Connection
'   cnn1.ConnectionString = driver={SQL 
Server};server=bigsmile;uid=sa;pwd=pwd;database=pubs
'   cnn1.ConnectionTimeout = 30   
'   cnn1.Open
'   ' Open a connection using a DSN and ODBC tags.
'   Set cnn2 = New ADODB.Connection
'   cnn2.ConnectionString = DSN=Pubs;UID=sa;PWD=pwd;
'   cnn2.Open
'   ' Open a connection using a DSN and OLE DB tags.
'   Set cnn3 = New ADODB.Connection
'   cnn3.ConnectionString = Data Source=Pubs;User ID=sa;Password=pwd;
'   cnn3.Open
'   ' Open a connection using a DSN and individual
'   ' arguments instead of a connection string.
'   Set cnn4 = New ADODB.Connection
'   cnn4.Open Pubs, sa, pwd 
'   Display the state of the connections.
'   MsgBox cnn1 state:   GetState(cnn1.State)  vbCr  _
'  cnn2 state:   GetState(cnn2.State)  vbCr  _
'  cnn3 state:   GetState(cnn3.State)  vbCr  _
'  cnn4 state:   GetState(cnn4.State)  ' Open a connection using a DSN and ODBC 
tags.
'   cnn4.Close
'   cnn3.Close
'   cnn2.Close
'   cnn1.Close
'   End Sub

(Source MSDN). 
First I'l install the MySQL in a remote NT server and also MyODBC in Client machine. 
Then I'll create a File DSN using MyODBC. Now what Provider name (eg For Oracle

Re: mysql Digest 24 Jun 2001 00:58:59 -0000 Issue 1353

2001-06-24 Thread bill


Does anyone have any recommendations for a good book on MySQL SQL?  What
about PerlDBI (I noticed that the O'Reilly one is over a year old)?

Stay as far away from the O'Reilly book as possible.  MySQL and mSQL was
really just an mSQL book until a few months before publication when
O'Reilly noticed that MySQL was far more popular at that time, so they
scrambled and tossed in some stuff for MySQL.  It's one of the few
O'Reilly books in my collection that was a big disappointment.

The *best* book on MySQL that I have ever seen is MySQL by Paul Dubois
(New Riders, publisher).  Amazon link:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0735709211/o/qid=993401518/sr=2-1/ref=aps_sr_b_1_1/102-6228011-7382510

Paul has a new book that should be available shortly (Amazon says August
13) titled MySQL and Perl for the Web that covers both MySQL and perl
(DBI).  Having read it, I would say that this book is an excellent
tutorial type book that will go hand in hand with MySQL (a reference
book) mentioned previously.

Amazon.com's link for MySQL and Perl for the Web:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0735710546/qid=993401594/sr=1-6/ref=sc_b_6/102-6228011-7382510

P.S. I would have given bookpool.com links since they usually have better
prices, however their site appears to be down this morning.  If you are
going to buy your books online, I would suggest visiting bookpool.com
first.

-Bill

 This is _not_ a recommended way to use it on a Red Hat Linux

 If you just reply to this message, and include the entire text of it in the

 first review the text of the message to make sure it has something to do
 with MySQL. You have written the following:

This filter is annoying... it's the second time in a few days it
rejects valid replies. This answer contains sql without adding value.

  But the INSTALL-SOURCE file you get after unzipping the tarred file says you
  can.
 
 That doesn't make it the way I would recommend... we deliver it set up a
 specific way (obviously outside /usr/local), and making it witha similar
 setup to the one we ship is what I would recommend.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good book on MySQL SQL?  What
about PerlDBI (I noticed that the O'Reilly one is over a year old)?

Stay as far away from the O'Reilly book as possible.  MySQL and mSQL was
really just an mSQL book until a few months before publication when
O'Reilly noticed that MySQL was far more popular at that time, so they
scrambled and tossed in some stuff for MySQL.  It's one of the few
O'Reilly books in my collection that was a big disappointment.

The *best* book on MySQL that I have ever seen is MySQL by Paul Dubois
(New Riders, publisher).  Amazon link:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0735709211/o/qid=993401518/sr=2-1/ref
=aps_sr_b_1_1/102-6228011-7382510

Paul has a new book that should be available shortly (Amazon says August
13) titled MySQL and Perl for the Web that covers both MySQL and perl
(DBI).  Having read it, I would say that this book is an excellent
tutorial type book that will go hand in hand with MySQL (a reference
book) mentioned previously.

Amazon.com's link for MySQL and Perl for the Web:

P.S. I would have given bookpool.com links since they usually have better

going to buy your books online, I would suggest visiting bookpool.com
first.

Compiling MySQL 3.23.39 on HP-UX 11.00.

2001-06-24 Thread Michael Widenius


Hi!

 Jack == Jack Challen [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

Jack Hi,
Jack   First of all, this is irrelevant if you're not using HP-UX.
Jack   Second, apologies if this isn't the correct list, but I've been unable
Jack to find
Jack   a more suitable one.

Jack This is just some info on how I got Mysql-3.23.39 to compile on HP-UX
Jack 11.00 using gcc,
Jack because I think the configure script may have broken somewhere between
Jack 3.23.35 and
Jack 3.23.39


Jack   Hope this is of some use to someone


Jack   Compiling MySQL 3.23.39 on HP-UX 11.00 with gcc


Jack Notes:
Jack --

Jack You'll need to fix /usr/include/sys/unistd.h - See the MySQL manual
Jack section 4.2.17
Jack (Beware: Patch PHKL_22589 Breaks this again)


Jack System:
Jack ---

Jack HP-UX 11.00

Jack gcc 2.95.3
Jack binutils 2.11
Jack GNU make 3.79


Jack Configure Command:
Jack --

Jack CFLAGS=-D_REENTRANT

Jack --with-client-ldflags=-L/opt/gcc/lib/gcc-lib/hppa2.0n-hp-hpux11.00/2.95.3
Jack -lgcc

Why do you need to include the path to libgcc ?
Normally this is an indication that something is wrong.

Jack MySQL Source Changes:
Jack -

Jack ### I believe these could be fixed just by corrected the configure
Jack script tests,
Jack ### as they're all #ifdef tests

Jack edited readline/nls.c  to unconditionally #include locale.h
Jack edited libmysql/libmysql.c to unconditionally #include pwd.h
Jack edited mysys/mf_pack.c to unconditionally #include pwd.h
Jack edited include/global.hto unconditionally #include stdlib.h

configure should test for the above include files and use these
if they exist on your system.

Have you any idea why configure didn't include these on your system?

I have myself compiled MySQL on HPUX 11.0 with just ./configure and I
didn't get any compile errors.

No.

To load a NULL value into a column using LOAD DATA, you must use \N.
NULL, with or without quotes, will insert as the word NULL.

how to prevent inserting duplicate rows?

2001-06-24 Thread Yee Chuan Loh

Hello,

I have a table where for each row, the column 1, column 2 tuple is
unique (when creating the table, i did a UNIQUE INDEX index1 (col1, col2))
I wrote a perl program to read lines from a file and insert accordingly
into the table.
How do I prevent insertions of duplicates? (as in during the insertion
loop, if duplicates exists do not insert but carry on with the rest of the
file)

On a similar note, how do I OVERWRITE the previous entry in the
table? ie. is there a SQL command to do like INSERT, but if duplicate
found, overwrite with the new value.

THanks.

Nisha Raju [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

There are some options which can't be the same: File locations, to
give one example. A sysadmin compiling his own package will typically
put it in /usr/local. A distributor, OTOH, isn't allowed to touch this
location (FHS). Thus, if you just do a configure you won't upgrade
an existing location, you'll get another separate installation.

By getting the RPMs, you'll know you'll get the correct paths and the
package managed by the package system on your OS. You'll also know
that scripts etc. have been tweaked to fit exactly with this system.

 First I'l install the MySQL in a remote NT server and also
 MyODBC in Client machine. Then I'll create a File DSN using
 MyODBC. Now what Provider name (eg For Oracle MSDAORA) and
 ConnectString should I give ?

RE: conflicts with new version

2001-06-24 Thread Dipl.-Inf. Guus Leeuw jr.

  From: Richard Kurth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
   I am trying to reinstall mysql on a cobalt server I removed the
   first version but when I go to install the new version I get this
   message below saying it conflicts with another version 
  could you tell
   me how I can correct this. I have looked through the entire 
  directory
   structure and can not find any other files that relate to mysql
  file /etc/logrotate.d/mysql from install of MySQL-3.23.39-1 
  conflicts with file from package MySQL-3.22.32-1
  file /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql from install of MySQL-3.23.39-1 
  conflicts with file from package MySQL-3.22.32-1
  file /usr/bin/isamchk from install of MySQL-3.23.39-1 
  conflicts with file from package MySQL-3.22.32-1
  file /usr/bin/isamlog from install of MySQL-3.23.39-1 
  conflicts with file from package MySQL-3.22.32-1
  file /usr/bin/mysql_install_db from install of 
  MySQL-3.23.39-1 conflicts with file from package MySQL-3.22.32-1
  file /usr/bin/mysql_zap from install of MySQL-3.23.39-1 
  conflicts with file from package MySQL-3.22.32-1

[ snipped for brevity ]

Richard,

obviously, you used rpm (or similar) to install 3.22.32-1.
you also treid to re-install 3.23.39-1 with rpm (or similar).

If so, please do a rpm -f mysql.rpm. This will freshen your
current installation, and removes the 3.22.32-1 references
from the rpmdb.

For more information, please visit man rpm.

Cheers,
Guus
