Re: Best Use of FULLTEXT and/or LIKE?

2004-07-23 Thread Raj Shekhar
MySQL wrote:
I want searches for News to be on the author, headline and content fields.
What is the best way to index and search this?
I would suggest a Fulltext index on headline and content. And then do a 
search using MATCH() and AGAINST(). For searching on author's names you 
can use LIKE .

From the manual
``
The `MATCH()' function performs a natural language search for a string 
against a text collection (a set of one or more columns included in a 
`FULLTEXT' index).  The search string is given as the argument to 
`AGAINST()'.  The search is performed in case-insensitive fashion.  For 
every row in the table, `MATCH()' returns a relevance value, that is, a
similarity measure between the search string and the text in that row in 
the columns named in the `MATCH()' list.
''

The results are sorted according to relevance, which I think is the best 
feature of the fulltext search. Oracle provides a thesauraus for Broader 
term and narrow term also. If you need something like that, you will not 
find it in MySQL.

There is a workaround for the 3-char minimum search string. You can use 
a LIKE search query when the search string is less than 3 chars or use 
the BOOLEAN MODE when searching (availble in MySQL 4.0.1)

Hope that helps

Is there any Performance Improvement / Tuning Software for MySQL?

2004-07-23 Thread Terence
Is there any kind of performance / tuning guide software for MySQL?
I am looking for something which can look at the SHOW VARIABLES and SHOW 
STATUS commands, do some calculations and give some tips on how to 
improve the system?

Any such product available?

Optimizing my scenario, suggestions needed

2004-07-23 Thread Scott Haneda
There are three tables:

This stores just a cosmetic name and a user_id which is used to find all the
account holders campaigns...
CREATE TABLE `campaigns` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  `campaign_name` varchar(24) NOT NULL default '',
  `updated` timestamp(14) NOT NULL,
  `added` timestamp(14) NOT NULL default '00',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=4 ;

SELECT campaign_name from campaigns where user_id = 123; would show me all
the campaigns for a particular user.

I have another table, addresses, which stores unique to a account holder,
certain email addresses:
CREATE TABLE `addresses` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  `first_name` varchar(48) NOT NULL default '',
  `last_name` varchar(48) NOT NULL default '',
  `email_address` varchar(48) NOT NULL default '',
  `updated` timestamp(14) NOT NULL,
  `added` timestamp(14) NOT NULL default '00',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `emailuid` (`email_address`,`user_id`),
  KEY `email_address` (`email_address`)
) TYPE=InnoDB PACK_KEYS=0 COMMENT='das' AUTO_INCREMENT=351 ;

The above email addresses can exist in more than one campaign, so I use a
3rd table to make that relationship:

CREATE TABLE `addresses_incampaign` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  `email_address` varchar(48) NOT NULL default '0',
  `campaign_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  `updated` timestamp(14) NOT NULL,
  `added` timestamp(14) NOT NULL default '00',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `emailaddresscampaign` (`email_address`,`campaign_id`)
) TYPE=InnoDB PACK_KEYS=0 COMMENT='das' AUTO_INCREMENT=246 ;

From all this, I most often will need to find all email addreses owned by a
user_id in a particular group, I am using the addresses_incampaign.
email_address and addresses.email_address to link these together.

I would have liked to use a auto_inc as the key to link them together, but
for reasons that are too long to explain, that is not how the data is
inserted.  Is this a big deal?  Or does mysql really not matter that a int
is not in my field where I will be linking one record to another?

Should I create any other indexes that I don't have here?

I have made 2 joins, they both seem to get me the same result, I am not sure
if either is optimum, can someone suggest some stuff to me:

select a.first_name, a.last_name, a.email_address, c.campaign_name,
i.campaign_id 
from addresses as a
inner join addresses_incampaign as i on (a.user_id = i.user_id AND
a.email_address = i.email_address)
inner join campaigns as c on (i.campaign_id = c.id)
WHERE i.campaign_id = '1' AND a.user_id = '1' AND i.user_id = '1'

select a.first_name, a.last_name, a.email_address, c.campaign_name,
i.campaign_id 
from addresses as a
inner join addresses_incampaign as i on (a.email_address = i.email_address)
inner join campaigns as c on (i.campaign_id = c.id)
WHERE i.campaign_id = '1' AND a.user_id = '1' AND i.user_id = '1'

Thanks

problems transferring database

2004-07-23 Thread james patrick
I previously had a server runnning RH 7.3, cPanel 9.41 and MySQL
4.0.20. I'm moving to a different server running Fedora 1, DirectAdmin
and MySQL 4.0.17.

I have a large database (200mb) and I'm trying to move it over.

I made a dump using mysqldump -u USER -pPASSWORD DATABASE 
filename.sql, transferred it between servers via SCP, and tried
importing it using mysql -u USER -pPASSWORD DATABASE  filename.sql.

After the last command runs for about an hour and a half, I get:

ERROR 1067 at line 161570: Invalid default value for 'membersince'

OK, so I look in the dump, and line 161570 has no reference to
'membersince'. The first occurance of that field is in line 326189.

Any clue?

Is this a bug with MySQL 4.0.17 and should I update?

I've tried creating new dumps, transferring it directly to the server,
transferring it from server - my pc - server, ftp, scp, etc. It
makes this error everytime.

Any help is appreciated.

Re: RAM-usage and hardware upgrade 10gb RAM

We just put a new dual-Opteron server into our production environment.

were best.

Our network guy did a bunch of benchmarking on the drives and found 
that SCSI-RAID5 was a bit faster than SATA-RAID0+1.

The SATA was significantly cheaper (the 3Ware card was the same price 
as the Megaraid card, however). You might be able to tie a 10K SCSI 
rig if you went with the Western Digital Raptor drives.

We ended up putting the SATA drives in production - some bug in the 
SCSI driver kept crashing MySQL on index-creation, etc.

High Performance MySQL mentions that SCSI 15K drives are worth the 
extra money.

Thanks David for your post,
Does anybody else in this list have experience with SATA-RAIDs?
After having done some research it looks like we'll go with a 
dual-Opteron an 8-12GB of RAM and a SATA-RAID10 with 8-10 
250GB-SATA-discs. We are just waiting for the NCQ-SATA-drives to be 
available and for 2 colleagues to return from vacation since we want 
everybody to be here when we do that major change. (looks like we'll 
order the system in 2-3 weeks if the harddiscs are available)

Our most important tables that get selects all the time and get updated 
up to 30 times a second each (or even more often depending on the time 
of the day) are of a total size of about 5-6 gigs.
Is it realistic thinking that mysql/innodb would keep those tables 
totally in memory and reply to all selects without reading from the disc 
when we increase innodb_buffer_pool_size to 7 or 8 gigs (assuming we 
have 12gigs of RAM)?

I just wanted to make sure nobody has hit problems with such systems. If 
you could just send a short We're doing something like that and it 
works fine I could definitly sleep better ;)

thanks for all the posts so far and pointing me towards the right direction!

Sum two column selects and put results in a different column

2004-07-23 Thread Rob Best
I hope this isn't a stupid question but this is my best place to ask...
I have a database where I need to do a sum of a returned select...
SELECT SUM(purchases.amount_of_credit_used) WHERE customer_id=jdoe;
and do a sum of another returned select...
SELECT SUM(amount) from deposits WHERE customer_id=jdoe;
So far so good. Above two statements work fine.
The problem is I need to two sums added together and put into a third 
table/field (customers.balance).
shorthand I would have expected the sql statement to look something 
like...

UPDATE customers SET balance=(
SUM(
SELECT SUM(purchases.amount_of_credit_used) WHERE 
customer_id=jdoe,
SELECT SUM(amount) from deposits WHERE customer_id=jdoe
)   
) WHERE customer_id=jdoe.
Unfortunately it does not work.
Does anyone know if what I want is possible? If so, would you be so 
kind as to provide sample sql statement?
Thanks!

 I am not sure this is just how it is, my issue, or a bug, I searched the

 MySQL 4.0.18-standard

 CREATE TABLE `addresses` (
   `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
   `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
   `first_name` varchar(48) NOT NULL default '',
   `last_name` varchar(48) NOT NULL default '',

 ) TYPE=InnoDB PACK_KEYS=0 COMMENT='foo';

 CREATE TABLE addresses_incampaign (
   id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
   user_id int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
   address_id int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
   campaign_id int(11) NOT NULL default '0',

   added timestamp(14) NOT NULL default '00',
   PRIMARY KEY  (id),
   UNIQUE KEY address_id (address_id)
 ) TYPE=InnoDB PACK_KEYS=0 COMMENT='bar';

 As you can see, I have a unique key on addresses.email_address and
 addresses.user_id, note the unique key on address_id in the second table.

 I insert the following data TWICE:

 INSERT IGNORE INTO `addresses`
 (`user_id`,`first_name`,`last_name`,`email_address`) VALUES (1, 'Claire',
 'Altman', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]');
 INSERT IGNORE INTO `addresses_incampaign` (`user_id`, `address_id`,
 `campaign_id`) VALUES (1,LAST_INSERT_ID(), 2);

 Notice I am picking up the last_insert_id in the second insert, I then
 insert that data again, since I am using insert ignore and since there are
 unique keys on this, I should only still have one records in each table.

 Results are as follows:
mysql select * from addresses;
 +-+-++---+---+
 | id  | user_id | first_name | last_name | email_address |
 +-+-++---+---+
 | 148 |   1 | Claire | Altman| [EMAIL PROTECTED] |
 +-+-++---+---+
 1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql select * from addresses_incampaign ;
 +-+-++-+
 | id  | user_id | address_id | campaign_id |
 +-+-++-+
 | 128 |   1 |148 |   2 |
 | 129 |   1 |149 |   2 | - SOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED
 +-+-++-+
 2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

 Record 129 should not have been inserted, it should not have ever gotten a
 insert ID back from mysql, mysql said back 149, which is in fact the next
 record, but no new record was added to addresses so it really is not valid.

 Workarounds and suggestions?

The behavior is indeed strange, but it's not a bug, since it's documented:

 If you use `INSERT IGNORE' and the record is ignored, the
 `AUTO_INCREMENT' counter still is incremented and
 `LAST_INSERT_ID()' returns the new value.

The solution is, of course, not to use INSERT IGNORE at all.  You
should instead catch any error, check that it's ER_DUP_KEY and not try
the second INSERT in that case.

Re: Sum two column selects and put results in a different column

2004-07-23 Thread SGreen
I know there are more ways to solve this problem (I can think of at least 
2 more) but I think the easiest approach is to break this into two stages. 
First stage, we compute the sums of the purchases and the credits:

SELECT @purchases := SUM(amount_of_credit_used)
FROM purchases
WHERE customer_id='jdoe';

SELECT @deposits := SUM(Amount)
FROM deposits
WHERE customer_id='jdoe'

Then we can do the update to the customers table

UPDATE customers
SET balance = @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
WHERE customer_ID = 'jdoe';

A second method is to perform two UPDATES in sequence:

UPDATE customers c
INNER JOIN purchases p
on c.customer_ID = p.customer_ID
SET c.balance = SUM(p.amount_of_credit_used)
WHERE c.customer_ID = 'jdoe';

UPDATE customers c
INNER JOIN deposits d
on c.customer_ID = d.customer_ID
SET c.balance = c.balance + SUM(d.amount)
WHERE c.customer_ID = 'jdoe';

The first update replaces the old value in customers.balance with the 
credit used total while the second update builds on the first value.

Do either of these approaches make sense for you? 

I don't know how busy your database is but for a real-world application I 
would either lock the tables to prevent outside updates during the 
computation, or I would wrap the whole process with a transaction. That 
way you can avoid updating the balance with only part of the information.

Innodb assertion failure after binary backup-restore

2004-07-23 Thread Sp.Raja
Hi List,

We are using 4.0.15a MySQL. We need to backup database at times and we employ the 
following method

FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK
tar -zcf backup.tar.gz ibdata1 ib_logfile0 ib_logfile1
UNLOCK TABLES

and restore is reverse. We cannot overwrite all databases, some of them needs to be 
unchanged across backup and restores called persistent databases (just 1% of full 
data) so we employ the following

mysqldump on persistent databases
stop mysql
cd /usr/local/mysql/data
tar -zxf backup.tar.gz
start mysql
destroy persistent databases
run mysqldump sql files to get database back to shape

This method works fine expect for the case where backup is taken immediately after 
table creation and population.
When we start the mysql after restore of this backup. It comes up, but mysql 
connections to it asking for persistent database destroy hangs. When I do a 
processlist I get
++--+---++-+--+-+--+
| Id | User | Host  | db | Command | Time | State   | Info

persistent1|
| 4  | root | localhost || Query   | 0| | show processlist

++--+---++-+--+-+--+

When I open up another mysql client and query some of the tables, they also hang and 
processlist at that time shows

spatial data in MySQL

2004-07-23 Thread Lawrence Strydom
Hi List,
I have been looking for solutions to my problem for a while and this  
morning someone told me that MySQL 5.1 might be the answer.
In short what I need is an interactive map displayed in a web browser.  
Users should be able to click on any point in the map and add text. The  
map and the data added by the users must reside in a database so that I  
can run reports against it. FOr example,I will want to generate a report  
containing all the data added by users between two points on the map.  
Typically this will be a road and the data added by the users will include  
variables such as road conditions, location of road work crews, etc.
Am I on the right track with MySQL or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks

Re: Is there any Performance Improvement / Tuning Software for MySQL?

2004-07-23 Thread Brent Baisley
Your settings need to be based upon usage patterns. Some systems have 
lots of inserts, others are mostly selects, some have lots of joins, 
others don't. All these would have different settings. There are even 
cases where you would want a table to be InnoDB instead of ISAM or the 
other way around. It's all part of being a DBA, there is no holy grail 
where you can just push a button and magically have the best settings. 
Oracle and IBM (DB2) are just now coming out with self-tuning systems.

So, you would need a program to analyze your query logs (over say a few 
weeks), analyze you current settings, compare them against the hardware 
it's running on (which will dictates the limits) and come up with a 
recommendation. Usage patterns may vary throughout the day, so the 
program would need to take into account important times, otherwise your 
backup may run very well, but everything else would be slow. A design 
change in the database could then completely change the usage patterns, 
so you would then need to start your analysis over. But then, a lack of 
an index on a field could be the one thing that's killing your 
performance, not your settings.

Almost no settings would help a poorly designed database or poor query 
syntax.

I know I didn't really help you, but I don't think what you are looking 
for exists. Best advice I could give is to look at your slow query log 
to see what's getting bogged down.

This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose
the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong
and this may fail.

key_buffer_size=16777216
read_buffer_size=131072
max_used_connections=0
max_connections=20
threads_connected=0
It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_connections = 29183 K
bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

Writing a core file

 Subject: Innodb assertion failure after binary backup-restore
 
 Hi List,
 
 We are using 4.0.15a MySQL. We need to backup database at times and we 
 employ the following method
 
 FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK
 tar -zcf backup.tar.gz ibdata1 ib_logfile0 ib_logfile1
 UNLOCK TABLES
 
 and restore is reverse. We cannot overwrite all databases, some of them 
 needs to be unchanged across backup and restores called persistent 
 databases (just 1% of full data) so we employ the following
 
 mysqldump on persistent databases
 stop mysql
 cd /usr/local/mysql/data
 tar -zxf backup.tar.gz
 start mysql
 destroy persistent databases
 run mysqldump sql files to get database back to shape
 
 This method works fine expect for the case where backup is taken 
 immediately after table creation and population.
 When we start the mysql after restore of this backup. It comes up, but 
 mysql connections to it asking for persistent database destroy hangs. 
 When I do a processlist I get
 ++--+---++-+--+-+--+
 | Id | User | Host  | db | Command | Time | State   | Info  
|
 ++--+---++-+--+-+--+
 | 1  | root | localhost || Query   | 55   | Waiting on cond | drop 
 database persistent1|
 | 4  | root | localhost || Query   | 0| | show 
 processlist |
 ++--+---++-+--+-+--+
 
 When I open up another mysql client and query some of the tables, they 
 also hang and processlist at that time shows

Did you look at MYSQL LOAD DATA INFILE ???
doc is available at
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/LOAD_DATA.html
regards,
Load data infile only works with a text file going into a table, if the 
data is in another format, like raw oracle, or EBCDIC it wont work, you'll 
need to convert it to ascii first.

grants for non-root

2004-07-23 Thread Wolfgang Riedel
I try to set *all* privileges to a user, which should not called 'root' 
but should have its privileges (I'm connected as root):
mysql grant all on *.* to 'mysqladmin'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

But now I get
mysql show grants for 'mysqladmin'@'localhost';
ERROR 1141: There is no such grant defined for user 'mysqladmin' on host 
'localhost'

What does it mean? What's wrong?
The problem occurs with MySQL-4.0.20 at Linux Fedora, it does not occur 
with MySQL-3.23.

Thanks for any help.

I have MySQL 4.0.18-standard on RH 9 and it works fine

I would recommend checking the user table in mysql database and see what
change your GRANT query did, if any. Let us see what it looks like, if
there is any entry for the user you are GRANTing privileges.

Aman

connect to an embedded database

2004-07-23 Thread Adrien Saladin
Hello,

I made a small c++ program which uses the mysql embedded server. I would like 
to manually connect to the local database for faster debugging. Is it 
possible ? 

Thanks.

You are using some kind of middle-man program to populate a database. In fact, 
your description sounds awfully similar to how Microsoft Access works. 

What is the program you use to do the import? Can you describe the precise 
steps you take? 

 Any guidance, 

Tell us where you are so we can tell you how to get where you want to go.

Hi, I hope someone on the list can help me.

Is there an easy and straightforward way way of displaying the data from
three tables in a spreadsheet like format using MySQL 4.0?

Table A has the column headings
Table B has the row headings
Table C is a line items file than cross relates the two

Re: Sum two column selects and put results in a different column

2004-07-23 Thread Rob Best
Thanks! that worked great!
I ended up using the first one, I just liked the look of it better.
Because the customer might not have any deposit records or any 
purchases I changed the code to this:

SELECT @purchases := SUM(amount_of_credit_used)
FROM purchases WHERE customer_id=jdoe;

SELECT @deposits := SUM(amount)
FROM deposits WHERE customer_id=jdoe;
SELECT @purchases :=IFNULL(@purchases, 0);
SELECT @deposits :=IFNULL(@deposits, 0);
UPDATE customers
SET balance_cache = @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
WHERE customer_ID = jdoe;
Notice the IFNULL lines.
Thanks a million!!
I would nice to be able to run the above sql statement for all 
customers in the 'customers' table but I found a work around (a big 
.sql file that runs every night).

Something like:
SELECT @customers := customer_id from customers;
foreach @customers
{
SELECT @purchases := SUM(amount_of_credit_used)
FROM purchases WHERE customer_id=@customers;
...
...
}
But hey, I've got it working at least (thanks again!)
On Jul 23, 2004, at 9:05 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
I know there are more ways to solve this problem (I can think of at 
least
2 more) but I think the easiest approach is to break this into two 
stages.
First stage, we compute the sums of the purchases and the credits:

SELECT @purchases := SUM(amount_of_credit_used)
FROM purchases
WHERE customer_id='jdoe';
SELECT @deposits := SUM(Amount)
FROM deposits
WHERE customer_id='jdoe'
Then we can do the update to the customers table
UPDATE customers
SET balance = @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
WHERE customer_ID = 'jdoe';
A second method is to perform two UPDATES in sequence:
UPDATE customers c
INNER JOIN purchases p
on c.customer_ID = p.customer_ID
SET c.balance = SUM(p.amount_of_credit_used)
WHERE c.customer_ID = 'jdoe';
UPDATE customers c
INNER JOIN deposits d
on c.customer_ID = d.customer_ID
SET c.balance = c.balance + SUM(d.amount)
WHERE c.customer_ID = 'jdoe';
The first update replaces the old value in customers.balance with the
credit used total while the second update builds on the first value.
Do either of these approaches make sense for you?
I don't know how busy your database is but for a real-world 
application I
would either lock the tables to prevent outside updates during the
computation, or I would wrap the whole process with a transaction. That
way you can avoid updating the balance with only part of the 
information.

I have a database where I need to do a sum of a returned select...

SELECT SUM(amount) from deposits WHERE customer_id=jdoe;
So far so good. Above two statements work fine.
The problem is I need to two sums added together and put into a third
table/field (customers.balance).
shorthand I would have expected the sql statement to look something
like...
UPDATE customers SET balance=(
   SUM(
 SELECT SUM(purchases.amount_of_credit_used) WHERE
customer_id=jdoe,
 SELECT SUM(amount) from deposits WHERE customer_id=jdoe
   )
) WHERE customer_id=jdoe.
Unfortunately it does not work.
Does anyone know if what I want is possible? If so, would you be so
kind as to provide sample sql statement?

MySQL user passwords and ColdFusion MX6.1

2004-07-23 Thread Terry Riley
Helpful Hint:

I had a major problem not being able to register a DSN (Data Source Name) 
with the CF Administrator, using username and password from a MySQL 4.1.3 
beta user table.

After much hair-pulling, I discovered that CF cannot apparently handle the 
new 41-character format of the passwords. Killing these off, restarting 
with --old-passwords and redoing them as 16-char passwords allowed CF to 
register the DSNs.

Hope this might help someone else who's going prematurely bald.

Cheers

Re: Returning Column and Row Headings Like a Spreadsheet

2004-07-23 Thread Aeon McNulty
Hi David

Thanks your response. I'm using Lasso but that's largely unimportant because
I still need to get the data returned in a way that I can use it. I should
not have said displaying - I meant returning.

I need to return only one column from table A (there could be up to 14
records). I need to return the data in such a way that I can display the
result horizontally, as column headings, with the data in table C still
being correctly related to them.

I need to return two columns from table B (there could be an unlimited
number of records). I need to show this data vertically, with the first of
the two columns as row headings. And they need to also correctly relate to
the data in table C.

I then need to return one column from table C (there could be an unlimited
number of records) so that I can display them in their correct places as
they relate to tables A and B.

Table C has two foreign keys that relate to tables A and B respectively.

I need to display something like this:

  A B C D E F G
1 1 XX
2 2  X
3 3X
4 4

The A, B, C data comes from table A, the numbers from table B and the Xs
from table C.

Sorry, I'm probably not explaining myself very well. Can you suggest
anything?

Many thanks

 What language are you using? MySQL provides data, not an end user

 it will let you save a result set to CSV.

Consolidating Data

2004-07-23 Thread Marc Knoop
Greetings! 

I have several (~12) web servers which all record web metrics to their own 
local mysql database.  I would like to consolidate data from each web server 
database to one master DB to within the hour.  I wish to avoid running 
multiple instances of mysql on the master server, so replication is not an 
option. 

What are the best practices for managing the consolidation of data?  Is it 
best to export the data on each web server and perform frequent bulk loads 
on the master server?  Or, is it better to have a robust Perl script on 
the master server that is responsible for pulling records from each web 
server?  I estimate 10,000 to 30,000 records per web server, per day with 
the average row size of 100 Bytes.  The web servers are all in remote 
locations. 

The end goal is to have all web metrics available on *one* server from which 
a reporting server (M$ SQL server). 

Lastly, are there any experts on this list willing and available to code and 
document this, given more details, of course?

Re: Returning Column and Row Headings Like a Spreadsheet

2004-07-23 Thread SGreen
 I will be more than happy to help you build a case-specific crosstab 
report. I have almost enough information. Could you post a 3 column-query 
that will actually produce from your data the information you would like 
to have reformatted? 

Column one needs to be your column names, column two needs to be your row 
headers, and the 3rd column needs to have the data you want to see merged 
into your cells (I won't need the data only the query). It should look 
something like:

SELECT a.name, b.name, c.data
FROM c
INNER JOIN a
on a.id = c.a_id
INNER JOIN b
on b.id = c.b_id
WHERE . (any condition will do)

I will also need a list of the potential column headers (this time I do 
need the data):

SELECT DISTINCT name
FROM a

With that I will have enough information to pivot your query into a 
crosstab report. Hopefully you will be able to spot the pattern and be 
able to adjust it to fit your other situations as well.

Re: Consolidating Data

2004-07-23 Thread SGreen
You could consider another option: To have a robust script (daemon?) in 
each web server that periodically pushes metrics data into the master. I 
think this gives you better control over your data. If you lose connection 
or something goes wrong your web servers will be able to tell what DIDN'T 
make the transfer better than the master could. Also, considering the 
volume of information your master server will be asked to handle, it may 
be better to NOT require it to run 12 additional polling daemons (or 
however they will be written) on top of doing everything else.

Re: mysql grant privileges to many DB

2004-07-23 Thread SGreen
Have you tried: GRANT USAGE on mysql.* TO ... (fill in with your user's 
information). 

From the docs (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/GRANT.html)
USAGE = Synonym for ``no privileges''

 Hello, MySQL gurus,
I am wondering how I can grant a user the privileges to all the db 
except 
 for mysql DB. THere are many databases so I don't want to grant one by 
one. 
 But 'revoke all on mysql.* from user' does not work. Thank you for help

 I am able to log onto a database through ODBC without using a user name
 or password.  I don't want this to be possible for obvious security
 reasons.
 
 What do I need to do to prevent this?
 
 This seems pretty freaky!

 Column one needs to be your column names, column two needs to be your
 row headers, and the 3rd column needs to have the data you want to see
 merged into your cells (I won't need the data only the query). It should
 look something like:
 
 SELECT a.name, b.name, c.data

 INNER JOIN a 
 on a.id = c.a_id
 INNER JOIN b

 WHERE . (any condition will do)
 
 I will also need a list of the potential column headers (this time I do

 SELECT DISTINCT name

 With that I will have enough information to pivot your query into a

 Hi Shawn
 
 Yes, that's pretty much it.  I'm impressed that you managed to work
 that out
 from my previous email which was a bit thin on detail!
 
 Good news: For a specific case (when you know the number of columns)
 the
 query you seek to write follows a simple and predictable pattern and
 is
 not hard to write at all.
 
 The number of columns are variable but they don't vary often so I can
 do a
 quick query first to give me the number and then use that number to
 specify
 the number of columns in the second query. Does that make sense?
 
 Please see my other post. Does that give you enough information?
 
 Many thanks

precision differences between Windows Linux?

2004-07-23 Thread Kevin Ward

I have come across a very strange occurrence while working on a client's
system. I get different behavior between the two servers (one Windows, one
Linux) when it comes to a column defined as double(5,4). The Windows system
truncates new values (existing data in the table is not truncated) whereas
the Linux system does not.

On the Windows machine I have been unable to replicate the data that already
exists in the table! -- e.g., a value of 179. exists in the table but I
cannot insert that value back into the same column -- so that is why my
statements below illustrate the issue by selecting from the table.

Anyone witnessed this bizarre behavior or know if I should report this
elsewhere?

Kevin

First, tech specs:
Desktop: WinXP, MySQL 4.1.3b-beta-nt-max
Server: Slackware Linux 9.0, MySQL 4.1.1-alpha

Here are the statements I executed on both machines:

SHOW COLUMNS FROM scene LIKE 'max_lon';
SELECT max(max_lon) FROM scene;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
CREATE TABLE t1 ( a double(5, 4) );
INSERT INTO t1 SELECT max(max_lon) FROM scene;
SELECT a FROM t1;

And here is the output:

building mysql-5.0

2004-07-23 Thread bruce
hi...

i'm building mysql-5.0 from src for rh8.0. my question has to do with
how/where i find the libmysqlclient.so.10 lib.

when i've built the mysql-5.0 i haven't found this file. it appears that
this file has been included in the mysql-shared-compat* file, but i can't
find this file either for the mysql-5.0.

the reason i appear to need this file is that when i try to use DBI in
perl, the perl app complains that it can't find the libmysqlclient.so.10
file.

so, i'm basically trying to figure out what i need to do/build/install to be
able to use perl (5.8.0) and communicate with a mysql-5.0 database...

all of this was working before i decided to test out the mysql-5.0

searching mysql/cpan/google hasn't shed any light on this issue...

thanks...

Re: Returning Column and Row Headings Like a Spreadsheet

2004-07-23 Thread SGreen
Yep, just what I needed.

SELECT 
c.CompanyName
, MAX(IF(m.Member_Initials='ABS', s.Subscription_Expiry_Date,

, MAX(IF(m.Member_Initials='BV', s.Subscription_Expiry_Date,

NULL)) as 'IRS'
FROM subscription s
INNER JOIN member m
ON m.Member_URN = s.Member_URN
INNER JOIN company c
ON c.Company_URN = s.Company_URN
GROUP BY c.CompanyName

Now do you see why I needed you to send me the column names? It is a 
simple pattern but requires a little advance knowledge of the data. It 
should be quite easy for you to script a query shaped like this in order 
to return just the columns you get from any generic query.

The reason everything lines up by rows is because of the GROUP BY 
statement. Because you gave me a date column to work with I was limited in 
my choice of aggregating function. You can replace the MAX() in the above 
query from any other function in this list (so long as it is compatible 
with the data you need to aggregate) : 
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/GROUP-BY-Functions.html

This works because for each column, the aggregate function either sees a 
value or a NULL. That's what the IF() is doing, picking what is MAX()-ed 
and what isn't based on the value of Member_Initials.

Have fun playing around with it!

table, and then does some processing (not sure what), then falls over with 
the error 27.

The message seems to be misleading because all the ulimit values are 
unlimited. Also the filesystem is large-file enabled as shown below:

Re: Last insert id problem/bug

2004-07-23 Thread Scott Haneda
on 7/23/04 5:30 AM, Harald Fuchs at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 The behavior is indeed strange, but it's not a bug, since it's documented:
 
  If you use `INSERT IGNORE' and the record is ignored, the
  `AUTO_INCREMENT' counter still is incremented and
  `LAST_INSERT_ID()' returns the new value.
 
 The solution is, of course, not to use INSERT IGNORE at all.  You
 should instead catch any error, check that it's ER_DUP_KEY and not try
 the second INSERT in that case.

That's what I tried, I thought I was onto something, then I remembered... If
record does exists In the first table, it does not necessarily mean it
should or should not exist in the second table.  In the case where it does
not exist in the second table, I do need to insert it, but alas, with the
insert id of the found duplicate in the first table. I would have to select
the first table to get that id, which in this case, of hundreds of thousands
of imported records in batch, it just not feasible.

Another newbie question - using OR in WHERE clauses

2004-07-23 Thread Paul Fine
Is there a simpler way to write something like:

 

SELECT  * FROM tablename

WHERE columname = 'Bob' OR columname = 'Mike' OR columname = 'Betty'

 

 

Clearly this does not work:

WHERE columname = 'Bob' OR 'Mike' OR 'Betty' 

 

 

Thanks!



RE: Another newbie question - using OR in WHERE clauses

2004-07-23 Thread Kevin Ward

Paul,

You can do the following:

SELECT  * FROM tablename WHERE columname IN ('Bob','Mike','Betty');

 I can't speak about Red Hat 9, but for MySQL itself there is no need to have

Best field type for status codes

2004-07-23 Thread Scott Haneda
I often find I am using a field called 'status' and almost always store
boolean 1 or 0 in it, sometimes I may need a 2 or 3, but never greater than
9 for sure, Is tinyint(1) pretty much the most efficient storage means for
this type?

Re: Logging on through ODBC w/o UN Password (Why is my query tool allowing this?)

In all likelihood in your database you have not setup any access
privilege yet. You need to look at GRANT command and assign password
to atleast root account and any other accounts which will be
connecting over network.

mysql /dbi issues

2004-07-23 Thread bruce
can anyone tell me why when i build/use perl/dbi it crashes because it's
looking for libmysqlclient.so.10.

i'm using perl 5.8.3 and mysql4.1.3. i've gotten the latest DBI (1.43).

why does DBI look for libmysqlclient.so.10, instead of using
libmysqlclient.so.14. is there anyway to force a change, and if i can't,
then how can i rebuild libmysqlclient.so.10 such that it uses my version of
openssl. i can't simply use the default rpm fom mysql

thanks

Object pascal translation of mysql header

2004-07-23 Thread Leo
Dear All,

Not long ago Jorge del Conde gave me his amazing translation of mysql C
header file to object pascal unit
Including the remade dll,
It was able to solve my problem of migrating the apps from using mysql 3.x
to 4.x
But now I am facing a new difficulty of trying to implement mysql 4.1.3
prepared statement,
I already tried to edit the mysql.pas on my own, adding the declaration of
anything that has the word STMT on the header file.. But instead it crashed
my app
I also do some googling to find a lot of obsolote result, the mysql.pas for
mysql 3.X

Would some one please help me.. I never did any translation from C style to
pascal before
Or may be Jorge can help me providing the newest mysql.pas

Thanks in advance
 
Regards
