mysqldump w/o password
Hi All I have to run this to dump the database mysqldump -u root -pPASS --opt database database.tmp Is there anyway I can hide the PASS is a file ? I was trying to put it in /root/.my.cnf as this [client] password = PASS That seems to be not working. I am not sure if mysqldump even reads that file. The only option worked for me is putting the password in a file /root/.pass and chmod it to 000 and then run this mysqldump -u root -p`cat /root/.pass` --opt database database.tmp However I don't like this option because it tells you where the password is residing. I need to put this in cron so I don't like the option of showing the filename Thanks -- Asif Iqbal http://pgpkeys.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0x8B686E08 There's no place like 127.0.0.1 -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: images on database
The most common problem in such cases is that the webserver doesn't know what MIME Type the file is and so it doesn't know how to send it. If you are using PHP to upload and later show that image on the web, i could give you the code for the scripts and the structure of the table containg the binary data.

Re: table is read only after copying table files to new server
Hi Bennett I had a similar problem on my system a while back. With my particular case, the problem was the the default priv's on the new server for it's users did NOT include INSERT rights. Basically what I'm saying is: these are the reasons for a table to be (or appear to be) read-only: 1) Table files belong to someone other than mysql ( not the case here) 2) The permissions on the files are set read-only ( do a chmod to the correct permissions you require) 3)the user for that database has no insert, update, delete etc, rights. For the last case you need to issue the correct grants, or you can edit the mysql user table directly and change the N to Y in the appropriate fields. Then you should probably restart the mysqld daemon.

Re: Socket Missing
Hi there, This is my first message to this mailing list. I just upgraded Mysql from 3.23.54 to 4.0.14. Everything were fine after the upgrade, but I experienced something strange: - When I telnet to the localhost, the response says 3.23.54 is running. - However, when I do a mysqladmin -V, it shows 4.0.14 - I tried to log into mysql, the connection refused and there was a error 2002. Of course, the socket is missing. - When I locate the mysql.sock file, it showed that the file is under /var/lib/mysql, when I cd to that directory, no socket file can be found. Fortunately the server is still up and running. However I'm confused with the installation. Could someone give me a hand. Thanks a lot in advance. Rainer

Re: PHP or Perl?
Hi Where to start For a pure web system, I would recommend PHP. It is smaller, faster and interfaces better with apache. This was its design goal. For a non web system, it has to be PERL. For a mixed system, I would again favour Perl, due to its flexibilty and power. I am currently working on a system with a few friends and we have chosen to write it in Perl. The prototype was written in Php, and was well received, but the production copy had to move to perl. We had so much code that we had to duplicate between web and backend systems, that Perl was the only viable option. The code uses several libraries, accessed from modperl, cgi and standalone perl apps. Finally, the standard interface that Perl offers for databases, DBI, makes writing MySQL/Perl applications much easy.

You asked for a record in which name = 'FavoriteSport' AND name = 'FavoriteFood' which is always false because name can not be both 'FavoriteSport' and 'FavoriteFood' at the same time. One of the possible solutions (not so good) is this: select a.entity from attribute a, attribute b where a.entity = b.entity and a.NAME='FavoriteSport' and a.VALUE='Soccer' and b.NAME='FavoriteFood' and b.VALUE='CornDogs'; or you can upgrade to 4.1 and do this select entity from attribute where NAME='FavoriteSport' and VALUE='Soccer' and entity in (select entity from attribute where NAME='FavoriteFood' and VALUE='CornDogs'); in the near future (i think in 5.x tree) you will be able to intersect two queries select ...

Re: table is read only after copying table files to new server
Thanks. Actually, my ISP helped me out and got this fixed. Here's what they wrote in the support log: Due to the method that the databases were copied over, I went into mysql used the grant option on all the databases to allow root access and ability to alter all the databases. Once this was done, I restarted mysql and I was able to run the example above. I had already run the command: grant all on tracerlock.test to bhaselto identified by password and that didn't work when I did it, but I didn't restart mysql after running the command. Probably it was the restart of MySQL that made the difference.

Probably it was the restart of MySQL that made the difference. http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Privilege_changes.html Otherwise, your changes will have no effect until you restart the server. If you change the grant tables manually but forget to reload the privileges, you will be wondering why your changes don't seem to make any difference! The page says that if you change the grant tables MANUALLY, you have to restart the server. I changed the grant tables using the GRANT syntax, and the page says: Modifications to the grant tables that you perform using GRANT, REVOKE, or SET PASSWORD are noticed by the server immediately -- no restart or flush is supposed to be required. Yes, That's exactly what I was wondering. I posted the link to you, because you said that it was probably because you restarted MySql, it worked. Which version are you running? When I execute grant statements, they usually work without any flush priveleges or a restarting of the server. But I always do these two steps, just to be on the safe side. You know, I wouldn't like some user be welcomed with an ugly message that goes Table is read-only. I will be the loser.

mysql and ESRI shape files
hello Please excuse the 'baby' question :) I have a 'digital dataset' of the streets and suburbs of my area (ESRI shape format). I used 'shp2mysql.pl' (from mapserv) to import the maps/layers into mysql, this worked fine EXCEPT for all the street maps...perhaps because they're vector line data as apposed to polygon or point data. How would the average mysql DBA import roads.shp, roads.dbf, roads.shx into mysql database?

Re: PHP or Perl?
Hello I am no PHP expert but I find it quite easy to move from Perl to PHP. PHP too has a huge standard library with lots of useful functions and it has PEAR, something similar to CPAN. but when I develop MySQL appliction (mainly for myself at the moment) I use Python or Ruby. they are also easy to learn and are very clean languages. and Ruby is quite similar to Perl but fully OOP. and Ruby and Python also have great standard libraries. in Python there is for example urlib and urllib2 as a replacement for LWP. and Ruby also hat stuff for this in the standard library and the Ruby Application Archive. just my experiences. check out http://www.ruby-lang.org http://www.rubycentral.com http://www.python.org Markus On Sat, 2003-08-16 at 07:17, Mark Healey wrote: As part of my own learning mysql project I'm planning to build databases for all my books and DVD's.

Isn't that the default for InnoDB? True, CONCURRENT has no effect on InnoDB. I just grabbed a line of code and (made you) hit a tombstone: changed only recently to Innodb by 'default_table_type=innodb'. Everage response time dropped about 30% with bearly no effort. If not, does it lock the entire InnoDB table while the insert is running? Just to run a test, I repeated the 1 records 100 times in a single file and imported that bulk in about 195s. During these 3 minutes multiple queries from another PC were answerred -in about 30 times normal response-. That proofs the absence of table locks, I'ld say. However, I fear the near-hog of the CPU is of an even more nacking concern. Makes me consider to do INSERT DELAYED INTO tabel (column) VALUES (1),(2), ...(n) and throttle a 1000 rows at a minute interval. What is your current rate of records/sec and CPU-load while using single row INSERT ? How does it effect response time to normal clients ??

The only option worked for me is putting the password in a file /root/.pass and chmod it to 000 and then run this mysqldump -u root -p`cat /root/.pass` --opt database database.tmp However I don't like this option because it tells you where the password is residing.

Re: PHP or Perl?
People tell me that PHP is THE way to do database work with mysql. The thing is, I'm familiar with Perl and it has all kinds of neat string manipulation stuff and LWP. People have opinions. My personal opinion, but I think of PHP as Perl with all the warts filed off, but I also think they filed off a little too much. Most of the cutting edge development is still done in Perl, and the rought edges still show in places, and I think that's part of the reason many people prefer PHP. If you are just starting out with MySQL, I don't think you're going to find yourself playing with cutting edge libraries, however. If you know Perl, PHP is not going to be hard to pick up. But if you don't have a customer speccing PHP, go ahead and use Perl to learn MySQL so you aren't learning too many things at once. When you get a chance to pick up PHP and find yourself wondering where some library is, look at Pear (pear.php.net). Pear isn't CPAN, but it is becoming the umbrella project for libraries for PHP. Perl 6 and PHP 5 will have some rather drastic changes, which I am looking forward too.

The only advantage of PHP is that it runs faster than Perl which may be important if a lot of people are accessing your web page.
