You should use your debugger of choice to get a stack backtrace, unless

 I guess for removing debug symbols I need to add the --without-debug

Check the character sets you configure, get rid of those you don't need.

You might look into compiler options optimizing for space rather than
for speed, but I hope you are not that much limited by your system.

If you want to run client/server as separate binaries, you can use
--without-embedded. However, I guess linking the server part to the

should look into that.

Are you using version 5.1 or 5.5 ?

Re: How to slim MySQL?

Roam,
   Why are you installing a client server database on an embedded 
system? There are better databases for this task. In the past I've been 
able to squeeze a Windows application and an SQL database so it could run 
directly off of a floppy disk (remember those?). But it wasn't client 
server. :) It seems to me you are trying to fit an elephant into a phone 
booth. Just don't expect it to sit up and dance.


 BTW, where are the MySQL temp files going to go? Like the ones used 
for sorting the table? Also are you going to have crash recovery in case 
the machine gets accidentally powered off and damages the database?

Hi folks,
I'd like to install MySQL on an embedded system. It's a powerful x86-based
computer with the only limitation of having a small-size flash ROM as its
secondary storage.
I tried installing MySQL from source which resulted in occupying 140 MB of
disk space, while the maximum amount of flash memory I'm permitted to use is
about 20-30 MB. So I'm wondering how to go about slimming MySQL down to the
bare minimum. Following is the list of directories at the root of the
installation directory:
* bin/
* include/
* lib/
* libexec/
* mysql-test/
* share/
* sql-bench/

I think removing the 'include', 'mysql-test' and 'sql-bench' directories may
be a good start, but I'm still far away from having a tiny little mysql!

BTW, I tried MySQL Embedded, but it seems that it doesn't meet our needs.

Any help would be highly appreciated :)

Re: Got error 139 from storage engine (InnoDB)

2010-07-06 Thread James Corteciano
Hi Joerg,

Thanks for your reply.

I found out that this error was limitation row length of 8000 bytes on
InnoDB. I have check the dump sql file and one particular table is causing
error 139.

What I did is just to use MyISAM engine rather than InnoDB for a specific
table only.

BTW, the machine has 24GB memory and Quad-Core CPU. The platform is RHEL 5.5
x64 and mysql-server-5.0.77-4.el5_4.2.

*Rob Wultsch *and Prabhat Kumar, thanks for your response.

combined or single indexes?

2010-07-06 Thread Bryan Cantwell
Is there a benefit to a combined index on a table? Or is multiple single
column indexes better?

If I have table 'foo' with columns a, b, and c. I will have a query
like:
select c from foo where a in (1,2,3) and b  12345;

Is index on a,b better in any way than an a index and a b index?
An explain with one index sees it but doesn't use it (only the where) 
and having 2 indexes sees both and uses the one on b. 

Am I right to think that 2 indexes are better than one combined one?

As I previously said, deciding which RBMS to use is not up to me. Actually I
myself suggested SQLite, but the system has already been designed and it's
not possible to change the plans.
Our case doesn't fit into your analogy (elephant and phone booth). The
system has a powerful processor, 2GB of RAM and broadcasts video over the
network. But the operating system resides on a flash memory. The client
program, used to receive the stream, connects to the MySQL server to do some
ACL and authentication stuff. There are some stored procedure in the DB
which does the job.
The purpose of using a flash memory and a read-only ramfs was to conqueror
the accidentally powering off part! It will update the flash memory when
we command it to do so.
Hope the scenario is clear now!
Did you really need this explanation to answer my question?

Re: How to slim MySQL?

2010-07-06 Thread Andrés Tello
The more information, the easiest to pinpoint solutions.

delete all client and administrativ tools (mysql, mysqladmin, etc from the
server, since you aren't doing any transactions, I think you can ditch all
engines excepto the isam/myisam, the basic one, also you migth want to leave
memory engine...

If I understand your project, you migth copy the database to the ram into a
tmpfs and if any change is needed, you update it, maybe to another engine??

What would I do. Build  mysql in some machine, only copy mysqld and it's
libraries, start it and trace it with strace -e open to see what files does
it needs at startup. Supply them.

Add the database, run the aplication.

If not working, repeat... until it works...

that would be my approach, I think that would take like... 2 days at most.
Don't think about leaning down the mysql, better thik about providing what
it barely needs to run properly.

Good luck.

Hi Bryan, all!


Bryan Cantwell wrote:

This is a FAQ, but I'm not aware of a place to point you for the answer.

 
 If I have table 'foo' with columns a, b, and c. I will have a query
 like:
 select c from foo where a in (1,2,3) and b  12345;
 
 Is index on a,b better in any way than an a index and a b index?

Any multi-column index can only be used when the values for the leading
column(s) is/are known (in your example, they are).

My standard example is a phone book:
It is sorted by last name, first name; you cannot use this order
when the last name in unknown (you have to sequentially scan it).


 An explain with one index sees it but doesn't use it (only the where) 
 and having 2 indexes sees both and uses the one on b.

Testing select strategies requires that you have a meaningful amount of
data, and a close-to-real distribution of values:

If your tables hold too few rows, the system will notice that it is
wasteful to access them via the index, a scan is faster.
And if your value distribution differs too much from later real data,
the strategy selected will also differ.

 
 Am I right to think that 2 indexes are better than one combined one?

It depends:
AFAIK, MySQL will not yet combine several indexes, but evaluate only one
per table access.
If you have a usable multi-column index, it will provide better
selectivity than a single-column index, so it is better if all the
leading values are given.

I cannot specifically comment on conditions using in and .


HTH,
Jörg

Thank you all for the help and info! This error happened because I started 
MySQL with -bind-address=91.203.57.207; even if Softslate is given the 
proper IP address and port number is fails on connection pooling. I fixed

I am thinking that the reason is that the C3P0 connection pooling cannot

Re: Fixed Connection Diagnostic Tool

2010-07-06 Thread Michael Dykman
C3P0 connection does, indeed work well on remote machines..  In fact,
I only deploy it locally on dev servers.  My production systems all
use c3p0 on remote servers.

Again, if you can connect from the command line of your client machine
to the server *via TCP* with the same credentials as your DataSource
is using, then it will all just work fine.  You appear to have
specified a bind address which made local TCP connections impossible.
Address that, and you sohuld have no trouble at all.

Re: combined or single indexes?

2010-07-06 Thread Octavian Rasnita

Hi,

MySQL can use a single index in a query as you've seen in the result of 
explain.
Of course it is better to have an index made of 2 or more columns because it 
will match better the query.


But if I remember well, the in() function  can't use an index.
And I think it also can't use an index if you use OR operators like:

select foo from table where a=1 or a=2;

So for your query the single-column index for the second column is enough.

I've seen some tricks for using a faster method by using union and 2-column 
index, something like:


select foo from table where a=1 and b1234
union
select foo from table where a=2 and b1234
union
select foo from table where a=3 and b1234

This might be faster in some cases because the query would be able to use 
the 2-column index, and especially if the content of those columns is made 
only of numbers, because in that case the query will use only the index, 
without getting data from the table.
