Please quit telling us that Oracle purchased Innodb.  That is ancient news. 
The innodb.com web site had innodb content on it in the past, Heikki 
signature makes me think that it still should, and it doesn't now.  That is 
the issue that I raised.  I am guessing, given Reimer's insight, that the 
domain name registration has expired and someone needs to renew it.  I hope 
they plan to do that because I found the site useful.

they park a domain as soon as a customer lets their domain name

Hi,

Maybe domain name down.

No the domain is not down.  At least the DNS answers up with an IP address 
and there is a web page that is displayed innodb/mysql type links.



Perhaps they are at Oracle now?

Re: Need help coverting MDB SQL

2005-04-01 Thread Bill MacAllister
I would recommend that you use perl.
 1. Install perl on your Windows box.  I use Active State's
distribution.
 2. Install DBI, DBD::ODBC, and DBD::mysql.  The commands you use
are:
  ppm install DBI
  ppm install DBD-ODBC
  ppm install DBD-mysql
 3. Create a DSN for your Access database.
 4. Now you can write perl scripts to read data from one database
and write to the second database.
I would expect that you will have some data conversions issues that you 
will have to work through.  For example, as I remember Access has a weird 
format for dates.  You put a '#' in literals when you specify them.  The 
good think about using perl is that you can handle all of these problems.

Hope that helps,
Bill

 Hello,

 I have tried and i have failed. I am trying to help out a non-profit
 site
in their move. The old site had a forum run by MDB and in the transfer as
you know...it won't work. I have used PHPBB and I like it and want to use
it. We need to convert the MDB to SQL. I have DL 2 converters...and
MySql..again I have failed. The database is almost 9 meg. I need
someone that can convert this for me and then explain how to upload
since it is so big. I have read you cannot to it thru the web/mysql?

 Any help...guidancePLEASE!

I'm not familiar with MDB but I'm assuming that it is some kind of
database, like DB2 or Oracle. Does MDB have any kind of export facility?
All of the good databases - and even a lot of lousy ones - have some way
to convert the database format into one or more text files. There might
be a single file for all of the data or a separate file for each table
in the database.
If MDB has such a facility, you can almost certainly use MySQLs import
facilities to convert the export files from MDB into MySQL tables.
Does MDB have some kind of export capability? If you don't know, can you
point me to where the MDB documentation is located online and perhaps I
can figure it out for you.

See the descripion of --user in the option list.
Thanks for the pointer to the documentation.  I just missed it.
But, my reading of the code in mysqld_safe (4.1.2) does not match the 
documentation.  The first pass through the option sections [mysqld] and 
[server] have the SET_USER script variable set to 2.  With this value set 
any user specification is ignored, but specifying a user disables any 
subsequent user specifications because SET_USER is set to 1.

Also, I don't see any where that would generate warnings if there are 
multiple user specifications.  It took me quite a while to figure out why 
my mysqld_safe was trying to run the mysql server as mysql instead of the 
user that I specified.  Still looks like a bug to me.

This is counter intuitive if nothing else, and I really don't see
why user should be parsed any differently than any other options.
Am I missing something or is this a bug?

Replication and tmp tables

2002-08-17 Thread Bill MacAllister

Hello,

I am continuing to have what seems to be intermittent problems with 
replication.  I have attempted to exclude temporary tables from replication 
by using ignore wild specifications in my.cnf on both master and slave. 
For some unknown reason there are times that MySQL still tries to replicate 
a temporary table.

On the slave:

nb3% mysql --version

I don't think it should be trying to replicate this table.  Any suggestions 
would be greatly appreciated.

Replication Problem with Temp tables

2002-07-13 Thread Bill MacAllister

Hello,

My MySQL slave (3.23.51) stopped with the error:

 Last_errno: 1146
 Last_error: error 'Table 'bts.tmp_na' doesn't exist' on query 'insert into 
name_address select * from tmp_na '

It is possible that this occured because of inopportune timing in stopping 
and restarting of the slave.  But it seems to me that this could not have 
been a problem since the my.cnf on the slave has the following entries:

replicate-wild-ignore-table=%.tmp%
replicate-wild-ignore-table=%.%tmp
replicate-wild-ignore-table=%.temp%
replicate-wild-ignore-table=%.%temp

The documentation seems to save that you put this in the my.cnf on the 
slave, but maybe it should be on the master as well?  Maybe in both places?

I will try adding this to the master, but any other suggestions would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill

 We had a Linux guru look at the version of mysql on this system that we
 compiled with debug.  I got information about the debugging session third
 hand and really don't have any details other than the problem appeared to
 be in pthreads.  I am not so sure pthreads is at fault other than a
 dead-lock condition exists and it is not detecting it and blowing one of
 the stuck processes away.

 What version of Linux are you running?  After a lot of reearch and gdb'ing,
 I found a bug report in bugzilla on redhat.com that seems to illustrate the
 bug that we're having:
 http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13785

 In short, it seems it's a contention problem in pthread_lock. the fix is to
 upgrade to libc 2.1.92 (or better).  RedHat 6.2 is running libpthreads 0.8,
 and I think this problem is fixed in 0.9.  Unfortuantely, 0.9 needs libc
 2.2, so you're probably better off upgrading to RedHat 7.2.

 I know, this bug report applies to SMP kernels, but ieven if you're not
 running an SMP kernel, it's probably a good idea to upgrade anyway.

 Why it started suddenly and won't go away, I have no idea.


Thanks for keeping me informed.  Two systems here exhibited the problem, both 
RedHat 6.1 systems, one a uniprocessor system, and one an SMP system.  The 
kernel on the SMP system is 2.12.12-20smp.  The other system has been rebuilt. 
The SMP system is soon to be rebuilt with RedHat 7.2 and a kernel that we build 
to make sure we are greater than 2.4.10.

--On Tuesday, January 29, 2002 2:08 AM -0600 Ed Carp [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 What seems to be happening is that the open of the db hangs.  So, when
 you attempt to connect with a client, mysql tries to look at the grant
 tables and hangs waiting for access.  This is just a guess though.

 When you connect with a client, mysql_real_connect opens a socket to the
 server, does the handshaking, then authenticates and  passes the query info.
 When I connect, I don't get anything, and gdb says the client is hung in one
 of the net_read routines, which makes sense - the client is waiting for
 something from the server.

Yes, exactly.  To authenticate you it has to consult the grant tables, i.e. the 
tables in the mysql db.  It has to open those files.  I never see the file 
opens.

 Is this a MySQL issue or not?  I'm not sure - I just downloaded
 MySQL-3.23.47-1.i386.rpm and installed it (this is supposedly the static
 version of the server, no?) and it gave me exactly the same result, which if
 it was a Linux issue, it shouldn't react the same, since it was linked
 statically, so I'm leaning towards it being a MySQL issue of MySQL not
 handling an error condition properly.

Yes, I think it is a mysql issue in that the mysql server does not respond.  It 
is likely that in both of our situations something has changed in the 
environment to make the server go catatonic.  I just can't figure out what it 
is and mysql is not helping me figure it out at all.  No error message, no 
core, no nothing.

MySQL Clients Hang

2002-01-14 Thread Bill MacAllister

Hello,

We had a development box running Red Hat 6.1 on it.  Over the Christmas weekend 
someone hacked into this system, installed bitchx on it, and filled up the disk 
among other things.  One of the consequences of the attack was that MySQL 
stopped functioning.  MySQL appears to start correctly on this system, that is 
the startup script finishes and there are mysqld processes that show up.

The problem is that when any client attempts to access any database the client 
hangs.  Initially, when we thought we could clean up the box I completely 
rebuilt MySQL from sources and the problem persisted.  We now are just about to 
completely rebuild the box, but we would like to know what is going on.  What 
should I look at?  What is preventing MySQL from answering queries?

Thanks in advance,

Bill
