 I got version 3.23.56 of mysql with my redhat installation as an rpm

 how I can upgrade my current installation myself without going through
 the rpm package installer?

 Thanks,

I guess you can install the tarball in /usr/local. You will then have a 
directory called something like mysql-standard-4.0.17-pc-linux-i686. Make a 
symlink to it call mysql so you will have /usr/local/mysql

Inside that directory remove the data directory, and make a symlink called 
data to the directory where you have your databases for the old installation. 
When the new database is up and running you need to run 
mysql_fix_privilege_tables since there has been some changes since 3.23

This is a *very* rough description that may not suit you setup, but it should 
give you some ideas. See the README and INSTALL-BINARY files in the tarball.

Regards,

Arne

Re: dropping multiple tables with one command question

  What's the command for dropping multiple tables?
 
  Example:
  12 tables that all start with:

  What?  Well, the install isn't going as planned.  I am having to
  reinstall as I try to work out script path (I think) or some other piece
  of info that isn't entered correctly, yet.
 
  Anyway, DROP TABLE tablename;  is one table.  I want to drop all the
  tables without typing them, but using DROP TABLE phpbb*; doesn't work.

 You can't use wildcards in the DROP TABLE command.

But you can do DROP table1; DROP table2; DROP table3; etc..

Re: Sporadic myisam table corruption.

 I also agree with you, it might be a hardware problem, but i also must
 note, that in a environment with very often writes to the db, myisam
 tables are not always the best choice, that's why i suggested a change
 to InnoDB tables, a problem with sql or logic is more likely to happen
 that a hardware glitch

I frequently got corruption on a 3GB tablefile when running out of memory. 
Installing more memory solved the problem.

Dead server

2002-10-16 Thread Arne K. Haaje


Hello,

After upgrading to 4.0.4 from 4.0.2 on three server we have got some 
mysterious problems with one of the server.

Several times it appears to be dead. Connecting takes a very long time, 
and the CPU load goes throug the roof and beyond.

The two other servers runs without problems. The only difference between 
the servers is that the one with problems is a master for the two others 
(replicating one DB), and the machine is dual CPU. All serveres run Linux.

When the problem occurs I have tailed the slow-log. This crops up every 
time when there is a problem. I have no idea what it is!

# administrator command: Statistics;
# User@Host: xxx
# Query_time: 31  Lock_time: 0  Rows_sent: 0  Rows_examined: 0
# administrator command: Statistics;
# User@Host: xxx
# Query_time: 32  Lock_time: 0  Rows_sent: 1  Rows_examined: 70
# administrator command: Statistics;
# User@Host: xxx
# Query_time: 33  Lock_time: 0  Rows_sent: 0  Rows_examined: 0

I think this statistics command may be what is causing the problems, so 
can anybody tell me what is happening?

Regards,

Arne

Re: 'too many connections'

 No, I'm not using mysql_pconnect, and my apache configuration seems fine.  I
 don't have very many users at the moment so there is no reason for the
 connections filling up.
 
 This can be due to your apache configuration. do you use mysql_pconnect
 function in php. Check you apache setting agains MaxClients StartServers and
 etc...
 

Try adding something like set-variable=wait_timeout=1800 to your my.cnf.
We found that when using mysql_pconnect the connections stuck around for
far to long. MySQL's default is pretty high for a webserver that gets a
few hits.

After adding wait_timeout=1800 we have never seen 'too many connections'
again. We still use mysql_pconnect.

Replicating from 3.23.42 to 4.0 - problem

2001-11-09 Thread Arne K. Haaje

Can I replicate a 3.23.42 database to a 4.0.0 server? I have not seen 
mentioned any place that you can not so I tried.. The error log on
the slave say;

011108 15:54:17  Slave: connected to master 'user@master:32354',
replication started in log 'FIRST' at position 4
011108 15:54:17  Could not parse log event entry, check the master for
binlog corruption
This may also be a network problem, or just a bug in the master or slave
code.
011108 15:54:17  Error running query, slave aborted. Fix the problem,
and re-start the slave thread with mysqladmin start-slave. We stopped
at log 'FIRST' position 4
011108 15:54:17  Slave thread exiting, replication stopped in log
'FIRST' at position 4

I have tried SQL_SLAVE_SKIP_COUNTER=2; SLAVE START; as suggested in the
manual, but without luck. I have also tried taking a new snapshot.

BTW, the master is also replicated to another slave running 3.23.42.
This works fine, so the master seems OK. All three servers are running
on Slackware Linux 8.

Regards,

Arne K. Haaje
