Newbie-question: Error when compiling MySQL 4.1.9 with BerkeleyDB 4.3.27

2005-01-20 Thread Harry Rter
Hi,
greetings to the list.
I'm in process of compiling MySQL 4.1.9 using BerkeleyDB 4.3.27.
When i start make, after configuring i get the following
error-message :
--snipp--
ha_berkeley.cc:103: error: type specifier omitted for parameter `db_notices'
ha_berkeley.cc:103: error: syntax error before `)' token
--snipp--
As db_notices is nowhere declared i
look around in the sources and find the following in
/bdb/build_win32/db.h :
--snipp--
typedef enum
{
  DB_NOTICE_LOGFILE_CHANGED
} db_notices;
--snipp--
So i put it into ha_berkeley.h
and it seems to work , but then the next errormessages
come up , which haven't such a simple solution :
--snipp--
ha_berkeley.cc:139: error: invalid conversion from `void (*)(const char*,
   char*)' to `void (*)(const DB_ENV*, const char*, const char*)'

   /usr/local/bdb-4.3)
MySQL 4.1.9

MySQL Licencing

2005-01-20 Thread Mat
Hello, we're about to start using MySQL as our main database server for 
our web-based applications, so I started looking at the commercial 
licencing.
My question is this: Are we allowed to upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 or 5.0 
free of charge? Or do we have to purchase another licence when moving 
between versions?

Also, i'm unsure whether to purchase the MySQL Pro licence, as we've not 
used InnoDB yet, but I see that MySQL 4.1 uses it by default.
I've noticed that it has cascading delete and updates... But don't know 
much else about it.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Undo function?

Hi,
I get very nervous when I log onto my database via SSH and type in queries 
manually. Take the following query for example:

Delete FROM Users WHERE User_ID = 5;
If I hit return before I start typing WHERE then things would be 
disastorous! Is there any type of undo function with MySQL?

This is nothing to do with MySQL - you installed eGroupware incorrectly by the 
looks.  Suggest RTM of the eGroupware install docs again.

Since 4.0.22 does NOT have subqueries, you will have to use a JOIN

FROM PAGE_SERVICE
LEFT JOIN PAGER

'5') ORDER BY link_lastmod DESC

That would indicate to me 2 possibilities:
1) Database 'egroupware' has a different name or does not exist, or
2) Table phpgw_links has a different name or does not exist

As Duncan said, maybe the EGW install was incorrect...

Sorry, but I never said (woops!) 

Which language I use depends on where I want to run the script and how 
often, and the fact that I am working in an M$ shop. I don't have any code 
I could share right now, maybe later (employer restrictions). What it 
boils down to is that you execute a SHOW CREATE TABLE query then scan the 
results looking for the lines that start with FOREIGN KEY.  From that 
point it is simple to break the line down by syntax (ON, REFERENCES, a set 
of parentheses) to find the child field, the parent table, and the parent 
field.

 Shawn, what language(s) are you using to parse this? Could you share the
 code?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Dave Merrill
 
 
  I prefer to parse the results of a SHOW CREATE TABLE... query. It's 
  rather trivial to detect which rows in the result of that statement 
  are your FOREIGN KEYS. They not only indicate which table(s) is/are 
  this table's parent(s) but also which columns participate in each 
  relationship.
  This technique does not rely on any particular connection library as 
  the functionality is provided by MySQL itself. Once the 
  INFORMATION_SCHEMA views are made available as of v5.x+ we will have 
  an alternative to using the SHOW family of statements to extract
 schema metadata.

RE: Undo function?

2005-01-20 Thread Artem Koltsov
Hello,

If you define table type as InnoDB, you can use transactions (see the link 
below). You will need set AUTOCOMMIT=0, and after you can issue COMMIT or 
ROLLBACK at the end of query or session to submit or cancel a transaction. I 
don't think you can use transactions for mysql system tables because they have 
to be MyISAM type, so the best solution for them will be backups.

indexing operation running for few hours

2005-01-20 Thread sam wun
Hi,
I don't know what is wrong with running indexing on this table. It have 
been last for nearly 3 hours.
here is the command I run at the prompt of mysql :
alter table inventory add index(basename);

Because it is running indexing, all operation seems hang up.
As far as I can remember I only injected 2300+ records in this table, 
compared to the transaction table in the same database which has 16 
records ,this table is a tiny one in size. I run index on the trasactoin 
table, and it only took 43 min finishsed indexting on the date field.

Can anybody tell me what is going on?
Thanks

How can I set MySQL not to lock the server? where the server doesn't
response then I can't use KILL process  command or like that. so as an
administrator, when a user run a bad query and locks the server, what you
do?
thanks

Hi,

Could you please help me in writing an equvivalent query in mysql 4.0.21
for  the following oracle subquery?.

update macvm set embedded='Y' where vm_server in
(select a.vm_server from macvm a, component b, element c where
a.vm_server = b.name (+) and b.id = c.id (+) and c.sxvariant = 'I3');


Thanks,

 Hello,
 
 If you define table type as InnoDB, you can use transactions (see the link
 below). You will need set AUTOCOMMIT=0, and after you can issue COMMIT or
 ROLLBACK at the end of query or session to submit or cancel a transaction.
 I don't think you can use transactions for mysql system tables because
 they have to be MyISAM type, so the best solution for them will be
 backups.

  I get very nervous when I log onto my database via SSH and

  manually. Take the following query for example:
 
  Delete FROM Users WHERE User_ID = 5;
 
  If I hit return before I start typing WHERE then things would be

4.0.20 - 4.1.9 Can't open file: 'Autor.ibd'

2005-01-20 Thread Marten Lehmann
Hello,
some weeks ago we switched from mysql 4.0.20 to 4.18 and later to 4.1.9. 
A customer now told us, that he can't access his old InnoDB-tables. He gets

#1016 - Can't open file: 'Autor.ibd' (errno: 1)
if he tries to access the table Autor. This happens to other 
InnoDB-tables created with mysql 4.0.20, too. The only file left is the 
Autor.frm. Have innodb-tables been stored in a central file at 4.0.20 
maybe and now individual table-files with 4.1.x? How can this happen?

Regards
Marten

 Since 4.0.22 does NOT have subqueries, you will have to use a JOIN

 http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Rewriting_subqueries.html
 
 ... as in this example
 
 SELECT PAGE_SERVICE.TIMEOUT

 FROM PAGE_SERVICE
 LEFT JOIN PAGER
 ON PAGE_SERVICE.PAGE_SERVICE_ID =  PAGER.PAGE_SERVICE_ID
 WHERE PAGER.PAGE_SERVICE_ID IS NULL;

Please Google for tutorials on how to JOIN tables (using the explicit JOIN 
clauses, not the implicit inner joins created by comma-separated lists of 
tables) and RTM (see links above). Most subqueries will easily translate 
to explicit JOINs. Learning this form, now, will save you lots of 
heartache later.

Original ORACLE query (re-formatted):
update macvm 
set embedded='Y' 
where vm_server in(
select a.vm_server 
from macvm a, component b, element c 
where a.vm_server = b.name (+)
and b.id = c.id (+) 
and c.sxvariant = 'I3'
);

To be perfectly HONEST, I have had limited exposure to the ORACLE join 
syntax. If I remember correctly, the (+) is on the side of the equation 
with the optional results (but I could be wrong). So I think that we 
translate this clause from the subquery:

from macvm a, component b, element c 
where a.vm_server = b.name (+)
and b.id = c.id (+) 
and c.sxvariant = 'I3'

to read:

FROM macvm a
LEFT JOIN component b
ON a.vm_server = b.name
LEFT JOIN element c 
ON  b.id = c.id
AND c.sxvariant = 'I3'

HOWEVER!! Because we _need_ a field from the table element to have a 
particular value. We should (for performance reasons) use INNER JOINs to 
ensure that the column sxvariant always contains the value 'I3'. That 
would change that portion of the subquery to read:

FROM macvm a
INNER JOIN component b
ON a.vm_server = b.name
INNER JOIN element c 
ON  b.id = c.id
and c.sxvariant = 'I3'

Since macvm IS THE TABLE THAT CONTAINS THE FIELD YOU WANT TO UPDATE, and 
the JOINs accurately define the set of records you want to change (it 
usually takes a combination of JOINs and WHERE conditions to define the 
set of records to update but this time it didn't) we can use this clause 
as is as the target of the update statement.


PROPOSED TRANSLATION:

UPDATE macvm a
INNER JOIN component b
ON a.vm_server = b.name
INNER JOIN element c 
ON  b.id = c.id
AND c.sxvariant = 'I3'
SET embedded='Y';

ALTERNATIVE TRANSLATION:

UPDATE macvm a
INNER JOIN component b
ON a.vm_server = b.name
INNER JOIN element c 
ON  b.id = c.id
SET embedded='Y';
WHERE c.sxvariant = 'I3';

ALTERNATIVE TRANSLATION 2:

UPDATE macvm a
LEFT JOIN component b
ON a.vm_server = b.name
LEFT JOIN element c 
ON  b.id = c.id
SET embedded='Y';
WHERE c.sxvariant = 'I3';


If you ever want to double-check that you are going to update the correct 
set of rows, check your update target by rearranging your UPDATE 
statement into a SELECT statement. I usually list the target columns (the 
columns that get SET to some value) first, then I list the columns that 
participate in the JOINS and maybe even those that participate in the 
WHERE clause, too. If everything seems correct, then you know you have a 
good UPDATE target. Here is how I would manually verify the first 
translation:

SELECT a.embedded
, a.vm_server
, b.id
, c.sxvariant
FROM macvm a
INNER JOIN component b
ON a.vm_server = b.name
INNER JOIN element c 
ON  b.id = c.id
AND c.sxvariant = 'I3';

Re: can a subquery be used in an insert

2005-01-20 Thread Philippe Poelvoorde

~  I want to store the parent comment to the comment being added, so I

Then, see the post earlier called SQL schema, where there is

But you now when a user post a comment which is the parent comment(0 if 
there is no parent, or the value you give thanks to a hidden input field

Re: Need help forming SQL query

You should *ALWAYS* indicate which version of MySQL you are using when you
ask this sort of question; the answers is almost always it depends: if you
are using 3.x, do X, if you are using 4.0.x do Y, if you are using 4.1.x do
Z. It's a lot of work to list all of those options and most people won't do
it.

It would also help if you provided information about what columns occurred
in each table so that potential responders are clear on what information is
in each of your tables. Including a few typical sample rows is also very
helpful for some of us, although some people can envision the data clearly
with only the column names.

Re: sqlyog

2005-01-20 Thread Rhino
You're not serious are you? You don't really mean that you want a restore to
be automatic do you?

I don't think I've ever met a DBA who would trust a fully-automatic restore:
most DBAs want to have some control over the restore process so that they
can at least *initiate* it when they want it. Otherwise, there is the risk
that a restore will take place when they DON'T want a restore.

Many DBAs would also want the option of choosing the restore point too. For
instance, should the data be restored to the latest backup or possibly to an
earlier backup if there is a chance that data corruption took place before
the last backup. Restoring the wrong backup wouldn't be a good thing in that
case.

If you really do mean that you want to completely automate the restore, what
event is going to trigger the restore?

MySQL quota problem

2005-01-20 Thread Iavor Stoev
Hello,

I have trouble with setting mysql database quota per user at my server.

I`m using MySQL 4.0.22 on Linux with kernel 2.4.29. 

I`m using group quota on my server and all user`s files, mails and databases 
are with group $user (user`s mysql database directory is with setgid bit 
enabled to apply the group id to the new crated tables also).

The problem is that when some user exceeds his quota the MySQL server dies 
for all users with:
Disk is full writing. Waiting for someone to free space... Retry in 60 secs  

I suppose that this behaivior is caused, because the thread is waiting for free 
space, and when someone tries to write again to the same database, a very 
common example is some buletin board; a new thread is started that waits again, 
etc until the max threads are full and the MySQL server does nothing until it 
is restarted or the quota for the problem database is increased.

Can anyone tell me is there a working solution for MySQL quota per database or 
a patch to return disk exceed error and not wait ? 
Because in my case the MySQL can`t write only to one database, all other 
hundreds of databases are operational, but server dies for all ...

Thank You 

Iavor Stoev

First, I need to you recognize that listing tables with commas in the FROM 
clause creates an implicit INNER JOIN between the tables.  That means that 
your query 

SELECT DISTINCT email.email_address
FROM member, email, updatehistory
WHERE member.member_primary_email_id = email.email_id
AND member.member_standing != Dropped
AND member.member_id = updatehistory.member_id_editor
ORDER BY email.email_address;

IS EQUIVALENT to this more explicitly defined query:

SELECT DISTINCT email.email_address
FROM member
INNER JOIN email
ON member.member_primary_email_id = email.email_id
INNER JOIN updatehistory
ON member.member_id = updatehistory.member_id_editor
WHERE member.member_standing != Dropped
ORDER BY email.email_address;

In order to detect non-matches between two tables, you perform an outer 
join between them and look for the records that don't match. They will be 
easy to spot because the engine will put NULLs into every column of the 
optional table for those rows that don't match up with the required 
table. In a LEFT JOIN, the table on the left of the clause is the required 
table and the one on the right is the optional table. Reverse that for 
RIGHT JOINs.

With that knowledge in hand, we will now change the query to detect which 
rows of member (required) do not match any rows in updatehistory 
(optional). We change the JOIN on that table from INNER JOIN to LEFT JOIN 
and look for NULL values where there shouldn't be any by adding another 
condition to the WHERE clause (they should only exist if rows between the 
two tables didn't meet your ON conditions(s), correct?). We don't need to 
change anything else.

SELECT DISTINCT email.email_address
FROM member
INNER JOIN email
ON member.member_primary_email_id = email.email_id
LEFT JOIN updatehistory
ON member.member_id = updatehistory.member_id_editor
WHERE member.member_standing != Dropped
AND updatehistory.member_id_editor IS NULL
ORDER BY email.email_address;

Re: Need help forming SQL query

2005-01-20 Thread Rhino
That's a great start but you haven't shown the Member table. It would also
be very useful if you included a few sample rows from each table. For
example, I'm looking at the member_id_edited and member_id_editor columns so
that I can create tiny sample tables like yours and I have no idea what
values will typically go in those columns.

By the way, did you know that there are typos in the first two column names
of the Update_History table? updatehistroy should be spelled
updatehistory

 Hello,
 If you define table type as InnoDB, you can use transactions (see the

 below). You will need set AUTOCOMMIT=0, and after you can issue 
COMMIT or
 ROLLBACK at the end of query or session to submit or cancel a 
transaction.
 I don't think you can use transactions for mysql system tables because
 they have to be MyISAM type, so the best solution for them will be
 backups.

Workaround for Windows bug in 4.1.9 in innodb_file_per_table: operating system error number 87

2005-01-20 Thread Heikki Tuuri
Hi!
If you have put:
innodb_file_per_table
in your my.cnf or my.ini in Windows, and try to run MySQL-4.1.9, the mysqld 
server exits and prints:


050117  3:07:59  InnoDB: Operating system error number 87 in a file 
operation.


to the .err log.
You can work around the bug in 4.1.9 by putting:
innodb_flush_method=unbuffered
to your my.cnf or my.ini.
This is the bug http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=8021. A full fix will be in 
4.1.10.

When I fixed the critical bug #7496, I  introduced this bug in the Windows 
version.

Once you start getting into larger sets of data (millions of rows), Taking 
snapshots (as you did with your CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statements) can 
provide some significant performance boosts.

Here is a numerical analysis of the two situations:

Assume we have a table with 100 (1Millon = 1e6) rows in it that needs 
to be joined to itself for a query (much as in the query above). Computing 
the JOIN of two tables that each contain 1e6 rows could result in a 
virtual table containing up to 1e12 rows. The actual number of rows in a 
JOIN will be smaller than the pure Cartesian product because it will be 
limited to only those rows match your ON conditions. However the number 
1e12 represents how many permutations of data the engine must decide 
between in order to calculate the results of the JOIN.

Let's imagine that instead of needing to join the entire table to itself, 
that we only need to match 1 (1e4) rows of the table's data against 
another set of 1 rows (two nice round figures that could stand in for 
the actual number of transaction records during January of each year in 
our original query data). A JOIN between those two sets of rows would 
result in a maximum Cartesian product of only 1e8 rows.

If it takes a fixed length of time (not a variable length of time) for the 
query engine to decide if any one row of a JOIN's Cartesian product 
belongs to the final JOIN results (based on evaluating the ON conditions 
against each row combination) then the subset JOIN will reduce the time it 
takes to compute the virtual table by a factor of 1 (1e12/1e8 = 1e4). 
That means that the query engine made 999,999,990,000 fewer comparisons to 
build the virtual table based on the JOINed sub-tables than it would need 
to build the same table based on the whole table joined to itself.

Your results seem to support this analysis. The time you spent creating 
the subsets of data (time to select rows + time to write them into a 
table, twice) was much, MUCH less than the time it would take to sort 
through all of the other possible combinations of data in your original 
table that didn't need to participate in your analysis.

As I said at the beginning, this is a query optimization technique for 
certain queries against larger datasets. For queries that deal with 
tables on the order of a few hundred thousand rows or less, it may not 
apply.  Your mileage will vary. Only actual testing will reveal the actual 
performance of one technique over the other.

Re: mysql.sock file exists, but still cannot connect to server

2005-01-20 Thread Alex Majora
Okay, with the good help I was getting, and looking at the all clues MySQL 
was giving me, like Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist and Can't find file: 
'./mysql/host.frm', I concluded that the 4.1.9 installation conflicts with 
the default 4.0.18 installation. For instance, 4.0.18 expects files in 
/var/mysql and /usr/libexec, but 4.1.9 wants them in /usr/local/mysql, etc. 
There isn't a mysql/data directory anywhere at all for 4.0.18. The two seem 
incompatible (at least, it's beyond me...).

So, I backed out my 4.1.9 installation, and was able to get things going 
again under 4.0.18. I guess I'll have to wait until Apple upgrades MySQL 
with OS X 10.3.8.

Thanks to all!

Thanks for your help



[EMAIL PROTECTED] écrit:

 
 Hello,
 
 I've got a DB design issue here, and I would like to hear your views on
 this problem.
 I've got a website where people can post comments on various ressources :
 news, articles, polls, and so on. So every comments are in a table with a
 field for the ressource type (news=1,polls=2, and so on) and a field for
 the  ressource ID of this particular ressource. Comments are also threaded
 so :
 Create table comments (
 id integer not null auto_increment,
 comment_parent integer not null,
 comment_thread not null, --used in solution 1 for efficiency
 ressource_type integer not null,
 ressource_id integer not null,
 body blob
 );
 + index and key :)
 
 The problem is the forum, where usually the traffic is higher.
 I've got two solutions :
 
 1. a new topic on one forum goes in the same table 'comments'. Since the
 forum is displayed by thread (topic + replies), managing which comments has
 been seen by someone is done on a thread basis, whereas on all the website
 it's done on the couple (ressource type, ressource id) basis [the same for
 displaying comments]. So there is two logics for keeping track of comments
 viewed by people, for displaying comments and for moderation (removal
 comments, or topics). _but_ topics and replies are in the same table, which
 makes sense to me because they are similar. (same fields).
 
 2. solution two : separate each topic from replies. a new topic is sent in
 a new table 
 create table forum_post (
 id integer not null auto_increment,
 body blob
 )
 and then all the logic for comments seen, moderation, displaying is
 absolutely the same than the rest of the website...
 but I don't see why similar things would be in different tables. Also,
 searching the forum would be a little more work to merge comments and
 posts.
 
 It ay seems stupid, but having different way of displaying comments is
 beginning to be a hard work, and I believe with solution 2, queries will be
 faster (index would be more balanced : at the moment the forum number one
 has 2 messages, but no other couples (ressource type, ressource id) has
 more than 100 comments.
 
 So what would you think about those solutions ?
 Has anyone other solutions for forum ?
 
 Thanks for your help.
 
 Pooly :-)

James,

You should already KNOW the parent comment of a comment when you create 
it. Don't you? Imagine the following thread:

TOPIC (1)
Comment on Topic (2)
Comment on Topic (3)
 
Someone comes along and wants to add a new comment to the main TOPIC 
message. The value you need for your parent field is 1 not MAX(ID) which 
would be 3. 

Someone else wants to add a comment to the first comment (#2). It's parent 
value needs to be 2 NOT the MAX(ID) which would now be 4 (thanks to the 
addition that just happened).

Do you now understand why we are all questioning WHY you are trying to use 
the MAX(ID) value?  That's not something you look up but supply as part of 
your data. When someone clicks on a topic/comment to generate a new 
comment, you should already have the value of the parent topic's ID. No 
look-ups required.

Maybe I am just missing the purpose of the field you are trying to 
populate.

upgrading from 3.23 to 4.0.x

2005-01-20 Thread scohen
We are in the process of upgrading from 3.23.x to 4.0.x via compiling
(can't use rpms). I've read through old forum posts and the documentation
and I see there is this requirement for libmysqlclient.so.10 while the new
4.0.x comes with libmysqlclient.so.12. I also see that many people are
using MySQL-shared-compat.rpm which includes this:

/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.12
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.12.0.0
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient_r.so
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient_r.so.10
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient_r.so.12
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient_r.so.12.0.0

Anyway, What I am wondering is should I just copy over the old
libmysqlclient.so.10 files to the new install or should I just recompile
whatever is using libmysqlclient.so.10? Also, what is using
libmysqlclient.so.10 besides php and dbd?

Thanks,

Steve

With the each child holding a parent id, you leave yourself the 
opportunity to store more than one child per parent. If you invert your 
definition of what goes into that field and made it a next comment id or 
child comment id, you will enforce by database design only one child per 
comment.

Either way you go I don't think you can do what you are trying to do in a 
single statement. The error you are getting is telling you that you are 
attempting to access a table that is currently locked (it's locked due to 
the other predicate in your statement). Either your INSERT is blocking 
your SELECT or your SELECT is preventing the INSERT. This wouldn't happen 
if you were selecting and inserting to different tables but you aren't.

I would suggest you rewrite your INSERT process as two or more statements 
(get max(), do insert) wrapped either in a LOCK/UNLOCK block  or 
BEGIN/COMMIT block to enforce the atomicity you desire.

Embedding MySQL in application, probably developed in C#

2005-01-20 Thread elizabeth baker
We are building an application for myths of the world. It started out in 
Access, but when we decided to distribute it via CD to attendees at an 
art retrospective (about myths of the world), we began looking for an 
alternative db, since not everyone has Access on their computer. There 
will be no charge for the retrospective or the application CD. The 
application will eventually be web-based and available on the internet.

MySQL was recommended to us, as was developing in C#. i have read that 
MySQL can be embedded in applications. Is this an advisable route for 
us? to develop and C# and embed MySQL in the application?

i'm somewhat at a loss as how to proceed, and time is running out. Any

Query cache confused when using different client protocols

2005-01-20 Thread Thomas van Gulick
Try this:
Setup a database server, with MySQL 4.1, with query cache turned on
Setup a client machine with MySQL 4.0
Setup a client machine with MySQL 4.1 (libmysqlclient14)
Create very simple table
:   CREATE TABLE woepwoep (CNT int NOT NULL);
Insert single row
:   INSERT INTO woepwoep SET CNT=10;
Now, do select on client machine with MySQL 4.0
:   SELECT CNT FROM woepwoep;
Query gets cached in format suitable for old protocol
Now, do select on client machine with MySQL 4.1
:   SELECT CNT FROM woepwoep;
This returns undesirable results. The other way around (initial query done 
on MySQL 4.1 client, subsequent query done on MySQL 4.0 client) fails too, 
but then it at least say 'Malformed packet'.

Is this a bug?

Re: Indizes fr groe Datenbank

2005-01-20 Thread Andreas Brandl
Hi Again,
You have to optimize a large database (2 Million records).
since I have a huge amount of 'static' records (2 million and more) 
which will not change any more, and on the other hand at about 2.ooo 
(growing) records which are updated regulary, I wonder if its useful 
having those static records in a seperate table...

The SELECT-queries go into a MERGE table which unites the 'dynamic' and 
'static' record-table.

Will this speed up my Update-Queries, because the index in the 
dynamic-table will be built up much faster?

thanks for your help.
Regards,
 Andy

Hello,
some weeks ago we switched from mysql 4.0.20 to 4.18 and later to 4.1.9.
A customer now told us, that he can't access his old InnoDB-tables. He 
gets

#1016 - Can't open file: 'Autor.ibd' (errno: 1)
if he tries to access the table Autor. This happens to other
InnoDB-tables created with mysql 4.0.20, too. The only file left is the
Autor.frm. Have innodb-tables been stored in a central file at 4.0.20
maybe and now individual table-files with 4.1.x? How can this happen?
I hope that you have not destroyed the ibdata file. The tables are there. 
Did you edit the my.cnf in the upgrade? What does mysqld print to the .err 
log?

If you want a quick_and_dodgy way of doing it, you can do the front-end 
in MS Access developer, and have the data in MySQL.
I can't tell you about licensing issues with MySQL - I suppose it 
depends on whether your app is commercial or not, but you should track 
down the answer to this before going any further.

The developer version of Access lets you create installation packages 
that will put a 'runtime' version of MS Access on Windows computers - 
without the need for an Access or Office license. In reality, it's a 
pretty tricky thing to get working right. We had a bad enough time on 
our network, and we're all using Windows 2000. We had even more issues 
getting the thing to run on Windows NT4, and I hate to think what you'd 
have to go through to get it to install on other versions of Windows. 
But if you're familiar with Access already and you're pushed for time ( 
but you can handle testing your installation package on all different 
types of Windows installs ), then this may be the way to go. REMEMBER: 
this is the quick and dodgy solution, and I suppose you have to actually 
have the developer version of Access to start with.

If you don't like this option, I would go with either Perl or PHP. You 
can make an installer to get a LAMP system up and runnning fairly 
easily. I haven't done it, but I've read about it, and it doesn't look 
too hard.

If you don't like a web-based interface, you could look at 
http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/ - I've been using this setup for Rapid 
Application Development under Linux for quite some time now. It's a very 
nice system. Just grab Gtk2 for Windows, ActiveState Perl, and the 
Gtk2-Perl binaries and you're off.

As for C#, I've never used it, but I don't think you'll find too many 
MySQL users recommending it somehow - it's better to stick with open 
source solutions. MySQL gets far more testing with open source languages 
than with C#, and your tech support for open source systems is going to 
be far better as well.

isam to myisam

2005-01-20 Thread Bagus
Hi there,

I'm running Freebsd 5.3 and just installed
mysql-standard-4.1.9-unknown-freebsd4.7-i386. I'm able to run mysqld and
mysql, etc. I used to run Freebsd 2.2 and I think it was mysql 3.21.33b...
I'm not sure. My old system faded away rather abruptly and I didn't get a
chance to do database backups or anything.

I have one database that I'd like to recover. The database had 5 tables in
it. Each one had three files associated with it, ie editors.ISD, editors.ISM
and editors.frm. I have access to the tables but can't load them into my new
mysql. I copied them into /usr/local/mysql/data/BagusDatabase and made sure
the permissions were the same as my test directory.

I have been reading around and thought I came across the answer with the
mysql_convert_table_format script. I tried changing into my new
BagusDatabase directory and running:
mysql_convert_table_format --user='root' --password='mypassword' --type='ISA
M' BagusDatabase

The script then reports:
Converting tables:
converting editors
Can't convert editors: Error Can't find file: 'editors.MYI' (errno: 2)

I bet this is old hat for some of you out  there. Can someone help me figure
out how to recreate my database?

According to the help message, the --type option is for specifying the

You could also execute this statement for each table that you want to

 database, a very common example is some buletin board; a new thread is
 started that waits again, etc until the max threads are full and the
 MySQL server does nothing until it is restarted or the quota for the
 problem database is increased.
 
 Can anyone tell me is there a working solution for MySQL quota per
 database or a patch to return disk exceed error and not wait ? 
 Because in my case the MySQL can`t write only to one database, all
 other hundreds of databases are operational, but server dies for all
 ...

Coding this into the RDBMS is theoretically possible, and at least for
InnoDB and other transactional engines (cluster, etc) you could trigger
a rollback on quote full. However, such luxiory does not exist with
MyISAM.

While your setup is pretty nifty, I would suggest a different approach.
Simply run a cron job that checks whatever you want to check, and
adjusts user privileges accoringly (i.e. grant/revoke INSERT privs and
any other privileges you want controlled).

Depending on the cron job frequency that's slightly rougher in terms of
disk space use, but the handling could be much cleaner.
