Re: Replication priority / speed
MyTOP says this particular slave has been up 47 days, 2 hours... It's had 56M queries, of those 4,559 were slow... Not being a MySQL expert, I'm not sure how to get slow queries/hour directly from MySQL. You would use SHOW STATUS, but mytop did it for you :-) Do you mean using a load balancer accross all the slaves? That would defeat the purpose of having a local slave on each web server-- that purpose being to return results as quickly as possible (network traffic is expensive compaired to local disk)... It's a design choice. Personally I prefer to load-balance across multiple boxes as it gives me the fail-over protection and umm... load balancing :-) Obviously local disk will always be faster than TCP/IP (MySQL AB claims 30% faster), but chances are your users won't see a difference if your LAN is any decent. However fail-over load-balancing is a big benefit of such a set up. Have you tried enabling DELAY_KEY_WRITE on the 4 tables that your bulk-loader updates? I'm using DELAY_KEY_WRITE on my slaves... I didn't know it, but I just looked and it says ON in 'show variables';... When looking through the docs on this, I also found low_priority_updates, which I could set on the slaves-- would this help? You must set DELAY_KEY_WRITE on each of the four tables: ALTER TABLE table_name DELAY_KEY_WRITE=1 You could certainly try low_priority_updates, although it is possible that it will make even harder for your slave to catch-up with master's binlog. This function delays your updates until no more clients are reading from the table. Please note that there was a bug in low_priority_updates that wasn't fixed until 3.23.40. Why not modify your software so that it doesn't read from the slave while your bulk-loader runs? The bulk load can happen on any web server, how would it notify the others? Do you need to notify the others? You say that you are using a local slave on each webserver. In that case, you'd simply have the server read the data from master while the bulk load occurs. Or you could create an agent process that would watch for bulk loading on all web servers. RedHat 6.2 on i386, stock RPM install of MySQL-3.23.36-1... The only options we set up on the slaves are to connect to the master-- everything else is stock... If you are using a stock distribution, then there are many optimizations that you could implement to increase the performance. You should really review: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/MySQL_Optimisation.html Why don't you try to upgrade to the latest MySQL 3.23.54a. I don't know about 3.23.36, but I know that replication was buggy. Also, feel free to send me the remaining info: 1. How much RAM do you have in your master slaves? 2. Perform 'SHOW VARIABLES' and 'SHOW STATUS' queries on the master slaves and send me the output.

Re: Is the Max edition of 4.0.7 required if running on a server with RAID?
Is the Max edition of 4.0.7 necessary for a server with RAID. Or can the standara edition be used? By 'a server with RAID' you likely mean a server with a hardware RAID array. In that case you can use any distribution. This is totally independent of MySQL. Your only concern is to make your operating system see the RAID array. Once it does, it will work fine with MySQL.

How to use HANDLER statement with primary key ?
Hi, I'm trying to use to following HANDLER syntax : HANDLER tbl_name READ index_name=(value1); However I fail since I don't know what is 'index_name' for a PRIMARY KEY (I already tried PRIMARY, `PRIMARY KEY`, and the column name without success).

How to get the sum of rows in 2 tables ?
Hello and hope that everybody on this list will pass a wonderful 2003 year, Here's my worry: I have 3 tables, one for genre, one for html and one for shockwave html and shockwave have a foreign key genreID I want to count for each genre how many html and shockwave entries have the same genreID, so I can have as a result : genreID ! nbgenre 1 ! 6 2 ! 2 3 ! 8 where for exemple genreID 1 has 4 html and 2 shockwave entries. Here's one query I've tested and that doesn't return the addition of html and shockwave entries, but their multiplication !!!?? (in the exemple I obtain for genbreID 1 = 4 * 2 = 8 instead of 6) $query = SELECT COUNT(*) as nbgenre, g.intitule, g.genreID FROM genre g, html h, shockwave s WHERE g.genreID = s.genreID AND g.genreID = h.genreID GROUP BY g.intitule, g.genreID ORDER BY nbgenre DESC, g.intitule I've tried using LEFT JOIN from exemples on the web, but I don't have enough experience in SQL to use them correctly in my own queries, and I am not sure it would solve the problem or if it's just another way of obtaining the same (wrong) result.

Re: join help: i am lost
David, I am unsure if I followed your example completely, but maybe this might help. Not knowing your complete database structure, I am unsure if my comments will be entirely valid but here goes. I think you could achieve your goal if you think of your groups as containing one or many clients. Each single client would be in a group of their own. Yes, this is a little strange, but it makes the structure a lot easier and consistent. So this is what you would have: Time slot -- class -- group -- client So the structure, in english: Each time slot has a one-to-many relationship to classes Each class has a one-to-many relationship to groups Each group has a one-to-many relationship to clients Now, you can query the database and see how many time slots have more than one class.

Re: join help: i am lost
David, Just some thoughts.. See my comments below... A scheduling, or a booking, eventually has to have a class type (private or one of many groups -- so I suppose I could simply make a group class type 'private' and that type has only one slot), an instructor, a place, a time slot, and the client or clients to go in it. Sounds like you are on the right track. Looking at your first sentence below, you state that there are various types of groups classes, so why not have a type of 'private'. If I get you right, I'd have a class table pulling together the type of class (one of the typical group classes or this new 'private' one) and, somehow, the client(s) enrolled, and then the schedule table need only have the class instantiation (which doesn't yet make sense without a timestamp; This is unclear, what do you mean by timestamp...do you mean it has no time scheduled? From a technical standpoint, this is not an issue, but from a business standpoint, you would have people enrolled in a class that has not been scheduled. (Can happen but awkward...) First, I wonder if I successfully followed you :-) Second, though, I don't get how I can have some clients in a class table when the class hasn't been assigned a time slot; how can the clients avoid collisions? This is unclear collisions?... Are you asking how the clients would avoid double booking themselves? If that is the question, I think your business process has to control that i.e. you need to schedule class timeslots. Or, as the classes get scheduled, you would have to notify your clients about the schedule. Wouldn't you have to do that any way, since they would not know when the classes are supposed to be? I % Now, you can query the database and see how many time slots have more than % one class. % You no longer need to worry about double booking.

(simple SQL query would give you this) Just to re-itereate, I think you want to enroll groups..! not clients..! A client can be a group of one. This allows you to enroll groups of one or many.

a problem with sum()

Correct. Although it is called a UNIQUE index, the MERGE table doesn't hold it's own index and uniqueness is only guaranteed on sub-table basis (presumed you have the corresponding UNIQUE index on the sub-tables). Does anyone have any tips for maintaining a UNIQUE INDEX across tables that make up a merged table? No. You have to check uniqueness yourself. Or use a procedure that assures you uniqueness, if possible. Is there an easier way than running a SELECT statement on all of the sub tables and then inserting the item if all tables return 0 found? Do the SELECT on the MERGE table instead?

Re: FAQ hosting site (was Re: An Idea)
David, Sure; it's the least I can do. Look for mysql.justpickone.org to be in the DNS tables by tomorrow. By then the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list will be ready for subscriptions, too. Fine. http://mysql.justpickone.org/ works :) Now, what do we need to do to be able to update this FAQ? I can't create ssh accounts for everyone, but we might arrange ftp Let's set up a PHP thing with MySQL. That's quite fast and easy to do. I could contribute some code. My suggestions (database design): 1. We need an authors table, and everyone who wants to be an author (contributor) can mail you, and you will set up accounts for these persons. The authors table will, of course, be used for database authentification / to update the admin pages. 2. For the actual content, we will need only one table, with question (varchar), answer (text), timestamp and a couple of id's that refer to other tables. 3. For the beginning, I would suggest we only have two more tables: category (installation, privilege system, ..., generally speaking, the main chapters of the manual) and difficulty (beginner, advanced, expert). _Not_ to be edited by the authors, to keep the FAQ smooth and simple. - We can make this more complex when necessity comes, with ratings, automated checks for double entries etc. My suggestions (frontend): 1. For end users, a very simple search. As Jim (JamesD) pointed out, Alkaline could do the job. Then again, Alkaline will search (and before, index) documents, and not databases. For the beginning, I would prefer just a simple input box for the search. 2. Output preferably as html files, i.e. nothing like index.php?cat=installationdifficulty=beginnersearchterm=windows, but rather something like /installation/beginner/windows/1.html. IMHO, this is easier to refer to in a mailing list, and easier to click. Maybe we can set up Alkaline on those html files, as an alternative search for the database search. 3. Authors should be instructed to first search via the end user interface before inserting a new entry. If they do want to insert something new, they should simply select category, difficulty, paste the question, type (or paste) the answer. 4. The author login should be extremely convenient, with a persistent cookie, so an author will not actually have to login more than once (from the same browser/machine). 5. An author should be able to insert new content and to update his / her own content, nothing else. - What I said about database design applies to the frontend, too. We can make it more complex later on, when the need arises. We can have user contributed notes, fine grained search criteria, etc. In the beginning, I would suggest to follow the KISS principle (keep it simple stupid). I send this to the list, because a) maybe someone has written exactly what we want, or can give a URL to where to find it, b) maybe someone has better ideas or comments on this. By then the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list will be ready for subscriptions, too. Great. We should discuss everything else via this list, then.

I would like to have users input a search string and find the appropriate records in MySql, for example: database software development linux Part of the difficulty I am having is how to handle the pieces of text to search with. A simple parse of the data would break apart the text inside the double quotes. My intent was to capture the search string in a PHP form, but I am unsure where to go to from there.

user/root
Well after 3 times installing mysql, finally
got it working (tks to those whom help)
now I need to take care of user and root.
first root.
mysql mysql -u root mysql
just want to confirm this is correct before I push enter.
mysql update user set password=password('tko')
where user='root';
Then next this,
mysql flush privileges;
So, this should add a password for root, yes?
and flush all other privileges?
Thanks-
Rick

RE: FAQ hosting site (was Re: An Idea)
I'm not following this threath.. but.. Use PHP to fetch mail from a mailbox, insert all questions into a database. Create a searchtool to search the database. No need to have way to many ppl as author. If you want you could have some ppl maintaining a list of keywords per question or remove a question from the database.. If you really persist to create something of your own you shouldn't create catagories. Most ppl don't really understand under which catagory their question could be found. Those who do will probably find an answer much quicker using google. --B. -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: Stefan Hinz, iConnect (Berlin) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Verzonden: woensdag 1 januari 2003 22:26 Aan: David T-G; mysql users Onderwerp: Re: FAQ hosting site (was Re: An Idea) David, Sure; it's the least I can do.

The authors table will, of course, be used for database authentification / to update the admin pages. 2. For the actual content, we will need only one table, with question (varchar), answer (text), timestamp and a couple of id's that refer to other tables. 3. For the beginning, I would suggest we only have two more tables: category (installation, privilege system, ..., generally speaking, the main chapters of the manual) and difficulty (beginner, advanced, expert). _Not_ to be edited by the authors, to keep the FAQ smooth and simple. - We can make this more complex when necessity comes, with ratings, automated checks for double entries etc. My suggestions (frontend): 1. For end users, a very simple search. As Jim (JamesD) pointed out, Alkaline could do the job. Then again, Alkaline will search (and before, index) documents, and not databases. For the beginning, I would prefer just a simple input box for the search. 2. Output preferably as html files, i.e. nothing like index.php?cat=installationdifficulty=beginnersearchterm=windows, but rather something like /installation/beginner/windows/1.html. IMHO, this is easier to refer to in a mailing list, and easier to click. Maybe we can set up Alkaline on those html files, as an alternative search for the database search. 3. Authors should be instructed to first search via the end user interface before inserting a new entry. If they do want to insert something new, they should simply select category, difficulty, paste the question, type (or paste) the answer. 4. The author login should be extremely convenient, with a persistent cookie, so an author will not actually have to login more than once (from the same browser/machine). 5.

Hi Like the look of the way its taking shape.

It can mix database stored content with static content, so it would probably do the job with a little work. It also does the membership authorisation/management.

SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost=PASSWORD('tko');
and skip the flush privileges. All explained here:

Using files stored as blob
OK I got files to upload to my MySQL server but now how do I retreive them for distribution by email for instance. When I do a query the filename looks something like: /var/tmp//phptkYxkV I'm not sure where that is but I need to retrieve that file and distribute it... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... /T - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

RE: FAQ hosting site (was Re: An Idea)
The 111 is the error code that MySQL generates. Check if your computer has a firewall, and make sure to enable port 3306 from external IPs e.g. on redhat using ipchains-based firewall, add: -A input -s 0/0 -d 0/0 3306 -p tcp -y -j ACCEPT to your /etc/sysconfig/ipchains file (or however the box is configured for the firewall). You'll also want to replace -s 0/0 with something a little more restrictive. cheers.. Dan On Thu, 2 Jan 2003, Peter Lovatt wrote: Hi Is '111' the IP it is trying to connect on?

I am not sure if there is existing faq software (I've checked sourceforge and freshmeat without much luck) we could use, or if someone can do a better job :) but I have a content management system written, together with a lot of the search functionality needed for the faq. It can mix database stored content with static content, so it would probably do the job with a little work. It also does the membership authorisation/management. I'd be happy to build the software, if that helps.

Look for mysql.justpickone.org to be in the DNS tables by tomorrow. By then the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list will be ready for subscriptions, too. Fine. http://mysql.justpickone.org/ works :) Now, what do we need to do to be able to update this FAQ? I can't create ssh accounts for everyone, but we might arrange ftp Let's set up a PHP thing with MySQL. That's quite fast and easy to do. I could contribute some code. My suggestions (database design): 1. We need an authors table, and everyone who wants to be an author (contributor) can mail you, and you will set up accounts for these persons. The authors table will, of course, be used for database authentification / to update the admin pages. 2. For the actual content, we will need only one table, with question (varchar), answer (text), timestamp and a couple of id's that refer to other tables. 3. For the beginning, I would suggest we only have two more tables: category (installation, privilege system, ..., generally speaking, the main chapters of the manual) and difficulty (beginner, advanced, expert). _Not_ to be edited by the authors, to keep the FAQ smooth and simple. - We can make this more complex when necessity comes, with ratings, automated checks for double entries etc. My suggestions (frontend): 1. For end users, a very simple search. As Jim (JamesD) pointed out, Alkaline could do the job. Then again, Alkaline will search (and before, index) documents, and not databases. For the beginning, I would prefer just a simple input box for the search. 2. Output preferably as html files, i.e. nothing like index.php?cat=installationdifficulty=beginnersearchterm=windows, but rather something like /installation/beginner/windows/1.html. IMHO, this is easier to refer to in a mailing list, and easier to click. Maybe we can set up Alkaline on those html files, as an alternative search for the database search. 3. Authors should be instructed to first search via the end user interface before inserting a new entry. If they do want to insert something new, they should simply select category, difficulty, paste the question, type (or paste) the answer. 4. The author login should be
How to print the results to the printer in Windows2000 environment
Hi! How can I print the results to the printer in Windows2000 environment? Is there any MySQL command for this purpose? How about the MySQL Control Center? I have tried to search for an answer, but mostly for the unix system. Is there any simple solution since I am not a programmer?
