Re: tutorial sites

2006-01-08 Thread Conor McTernan
If you're learning PHP I'd take a look at http://www.phpbuilder.com.
They have a lot of good atricles and tutorials on setting it up and
things you can do with it. I pretty much thought myself PHP through
that site a couple of years back. They have pretty active forums if
you have any questions covered in the articles. They cover most of the
basics, like setting up Apache/PHP/MySQL

For MySQL you cant go far wrong with the reference manual
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/.

Good luck,

Conor

error in script

2006-01-08 Thread Jon Miller
I'm a newbie to MySQL so please bear with me.  I'm creating a program from a 
script I found and I'm wondering why I keep getting the same error message.
I can connect to the mysql server while I'm ssh to the server, I also can run 
phpmyadmin from my windows desktop and see the databases and create databases, 
tables and input the data.  
I'm using Apache2, PHP4 and MySQL Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.24, for pc-linux-gnu 
(i386)

Thanks

Jon

Re: query with vars

2006-01-08 Thread James Harvard
You should be able to join the tables like this:

select p1.id /* and other cols */
from people1 p1
inner join people2 p2 on p1.Lname = p2.Lname and left(p1.Fname, 3) = 
left(p2.Fname, 3)
group by p1.id;

How to update record obtained from a query result?

2006-01-08 Thread Jan M
Hi,

Newbie question (MySql 5.0 using C API). I've searched the mysql
website/Internet but cannot find the answer.

How do I update a record obtained from a query result while ensuring that:

1) The record is the actual record in the database not a possible duplicate,
e.g. is there a built-in record number identifying the actual DB record or
do I have to organise that in the table structure.

2) The record hasnt been or cannot be changed by another thread/process,
possibly by. locking / re-reading the record (is there another way?).

How do I lock and re-read the [actual] record anyway?

Code snippet:

 sprintf(szStr,
 "SELECT * FROM %s WHERE UserName = '%s'",
 DB_TABLE,
 szUserName);

 if(mysql_real_query(db, szStr, strlen(szStr)) == 0)
  {
   result = mysql_store_result(db);

   if(result)  // There are rows
{
 while ((row = mysql_fetch_row(result)))
  {
   // *** I need to update the record here! ***
  }

 mysql_free_result(result);
}

TIA.

Jan

Cant access my files through the web site

2006-01-08 Thread ghislain groulx

hi

Im quite new to mysql and i bought a book to learn how to work with mysql 
(php and mysql for dummies...lol).  The first problem i have is probably 
easy to solve but i don't know how.


I did exactly like in the book and i set up my web server(it was already set 
since i run a website for a long time now), mysql and php last.  After that, 
the book told me to create 2 files called test.php and mysql_up.php to test 
php and mysql.  So far, i could see the files in the browser but as soon as 
i enter back all the content of my website in the web server (i run apache 
2), i could not see the php files anymore.  Now, if i enter the adress 
www.mysite.com/mysql_up.php  or localhost/mysql_up.php, it always redirect 
me to the home page of the website.


Can someone tell me what i missed ?  I guess the probelm lies in the 
configuration file of the apache server, but i dont know what to change.


thanks a lot !

Hi

The problem here does not involve mysql.  For better advice, try an
apache or PHP group.  From what I know, I would check directory permissions
in the apache conf file.  Mike

allocate space for innodb innodb_file_per_table

2006-01-08 Thread George Law

Hi All,

I am running mysql 5.0.18 with a innodb table of 9 GB (plus several others) 
on suse linux 9.3 with 4 GB ram.


when doing a show table status command, this table shows Data_Free:0

I assume this is because it is the "file per table" setting, where the 
tables fall outside of the main ibdata files.


The ibdata files are all preallocated when mysql starts up, is there anyway 
to preallocate the "file per table" files as well?


Is there a specific innodb list?

Thanks to Gleb's answer and the hint on the bulk load setting in my.cnf - 
that seems to have helped some what.
I notice in the load data command there is a "CONCURRENT" option - but as 
far as I can tell, that only does MyISAM tables?  You also suggested 
disablign the keys.  I think I tried that, but with a table with 7 mil rows, 
that takes longer than the load data :-\


TIA.

George Law

remotely show databases

2006-01-08 Thread Anthony Ettinger
I know I can login via ssh and run $mysqlshow

But I would then have to parse the outputted text, is there an easier way
(I'm using Perl locally here).

The pitfall of running it locally is that you DO have to password protect
your database user since it's an outside connection to run "SHOW DATABASES";

I tried $man mysqlshow, but didn't see any easy way of simply returning a \n
seperated list of databases.

Any suggestions?

I also need to do this for postgresql if anyone else knows of a standalone
app that dumps the databases for a specific user.

Without using DATEDIFF I would suggest subtracting the current UNIXTIME from

General Questions regarding mysql and php

2006-01-08 Thread Andrew Burrows
 

Hi MYSQL users,

 

Just started playing with mysql apache php and other tricky stuff and have a
few question to get me going after many years.

 

Was wondering what the best GUI based administration tool is used today, I
lasted used phpMyAdmin, is this still used or are there better applications
available?

 

Looking for some basic documentation on MYSQL could someone recommend
something online or maybe a book??

 

I have an old system that will probably need upgrading.

 

Apache 1.3

Mysql 3.22.32

Tomcat 3.1.1

Red Hat 8

 

Would you recommend upgrading this system or starting from scratch?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Andrew

If you don't have remote access to the port MySQL is running on, 
phpMyAdmin is still very good.  However, when ever I can, I use the 
mysql GUI tools, MySQL Query Browser and MySQLAdmin.  They are both 
written by MySQL and are on the site for download.

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/

MySQL maintains a manual for each of the major version online in several 
formats, including HTML and PDF,  I prefer the US - Letter size PDF 
file.  It is over 1,700 pages of information.  Most anything you need to 
know about it can be found in there. 
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/

Well if you want to go all the way to MySQL 5, you will need to do 
several upgrades.  I would just start over with a modern Linux 
Distribution that has MySQL 4.1 Apache 2 and I think PHP 5.  It will 
take far less effort than upgrading what you have now.

Re: General Questions regarding mysql and php

2006-01-08 Thread George Law

Andrew,

I used to be a big redhat fan - but if you are looking to totally bring 
everything up to date, I would suggested opensuse.


having used redhat for years, Suse's not a big step - everything is still 
RPM based, however, Suse's admin tool, YaST, kicks butt :)


Suse 10 comes with Apache 2, PHP5, and one of the latest 4.X versions of 
mysql.


There are generic RPMs for mysql 5 on mysql's website - but I haven't used 
them - I am running 5.0.18, but using the binary distro because I needed to 
run both 4.x and 5.x at the same time to migrate some data.
