Sebastian,

MySQL uses only one index for searching.
As far as I know this applies to all MySQL versions, right ?

For a query like:

SELECT  id FROM properties  WHERE `Country` = 'USA' AND 
Type='Residential'


Is an multi-column index that is (Country, Type) better or worse or the 
same as a single index Country and another single index Type.


better

two single indexes depending on your MySQL version will not be used.

AFAIK, MySQL (atleast from version 5.0 onwards) is capable of
using multiple indexes.

it seems this was an intentional change, maybe because the versions

Mysql Help / Error Thx

2008-01-11 Thread Matthias L.

Dear Users

I searched google, find alot of  tips, but none of the them was
successfully.
After a db move with ibdata files, which cannot be dumped (cause of a table
failure) we made a hardcopy of the files and moved it onto the new server.

Eg. we copy ibdatafiles, the original my.cnf to the new server, we did NOT
copy the ib_logfiles (2) and the old bin files like hostname.0001 ..(we
tough its only for slave/master)

After starting the new mysql server, this follows in *.err log all the time.
The Database is runnning fine, but the log is to full after few seconds.
Re-dumping is not possible

Any ideas how i can fix it?
Check Tables means all is ok.

Thank you

RE: Download MySQL 4.0.30

2008-01-11 Thread iagosineiro
Hi, Joerg.

Thanks for the response.

In ftp://mysql.secsup.org/pub/software/mysql/Downloads/MySQL-4.0/ and other
similars that I find looking for mysql/Downloads/MySQL-4.0 in google there
is only MySQL 4.0.26 and 4.0.27.

both the 4.0 and 4.1 MySQL release families have reached their end of 
active development and are in extended lifecycle only.
This means there is neither development not continuous publishing for 
these release families, all they get is security fixes if severe issues 
should show up.
4.0.30 is such a version.

Customers who pay for this extended support then get access to binaries 
including these fixes.

This meens that 4.0.30 is never published publicy. Correct me if I wrong.

Iago.

union operator problems in MySQL v3.23?

2008-01-11 Thread Glenn Gillis
Notwithstanding end-of-life status, is there an issue in MySQL v3.23 
r.e. the union operator?


My installation returns a syntax error on any query containing the union 
operator, even with the sample queries provided in the documentation:


  mysql SELECT REPEAT('a',1) UNION SELECT REPEAT('b',10);
  ERROR 1064: syntax error near 'UNION SELECT REPEAT('b',10)' at line 1
