Subject: MySQL running out of date
Some make the laughing stock of MySQL with this code:
create database data_test ;
use data_test;
create table test3 (a date);
insert into test3 values (-1);
insert into test3 values ('1996-02-31');
insert into test3 values ('1996-67-31');
select * from test3;
I ran it on MYSQL-4.10-max and was not amused.
Anyone to comment??

RE: Oracle DBA here looking for advice on MySQL ....
Just look at amazon. There are more books popping up all the time. The manual with user comments is the best. http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/ Paul DuBois wrote a good book that helped me get started on a few things. This one is a newer one I think. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0735709211/ref=pd_sim_books_1/ 103-1999417-1493463?v=glances=books or for 4.0 by Ian Gilfillan http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0782141625/ref=pd_sbs_b_1/103- 1999417-1493463?v=glances=books opinion per 1st reply I've noticed a lot of Oracle people don't like MySQL for one reason or another. I don't understand why that is, but in my opion MySQL is easier, faster and more fun to use. Granted there are not as many features available in MySQL, but having the ability to create my own solutions to problems is what I enjoy most about it. That's the reason I became a programmer, not an app user. /opinion per 1st reply Brian -Original Message- From: Andy Jackman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2003 2:29 AM To: Johnson, Michael Cc: MySQL Users Subject: Re: Oracle DBA here looking for advice on MySQL I've used a lot of Oracle, some MS Access and I'm newish to MySQL. I found it easy to write an abstraction layer for Ms Access and Oracle despite their different approaches to some important things. I find MySQL very sparse by comparison and I spend more time working round the db than working with it. Unlike Oracle the richness and integrity of language is simply missing - these people have lived without something as useful as sub-queries for a long time. (The argument being that speed and data integrity are all-important). It's more a file system than a relational database. I know you asked about books rather than a comparison of the products, but the software philosophy is reflected in the documentation. If someone else pays you to be an Oracle Dba then I bet you have at least a 10 foot shelf of comprehensive documentation. This list is about as good as it gets (see your previous response). There is a PDF copy of the manual somewhere and setting up MySql was accompilshed by a colleague who wouldn't have known where to start with Oracle, so it has that in its favour. So, if you're thinking of migrating, think carefully! If I could get Oracle to give me a sensible price (say USD 1000) to sell their db with my product I would be out of here so fast. So far with mySQL i've written my own database for a particular (simple) structure that it wouldn't handle to my satisfaction; I've written my own date/time routines to calculate things like seconds between 2 datetimes (despite a wealth of datatime functions, this one isn't available unless you convert to 'Unix' dates which expire in 2036) and I've written functions to handle the fact that in 'C' all data is returned as strings rather than as native data types.

RE: max clients
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Linux.html If you are using Linux, you need to read this section. You can get up to 4096 connections minus a few for the server admin threads. Did this a while back and works well. I don't know if any of these issues have been resolved in the Kernel or LinuxThreads yet. However, you can see from some MS SQL Server, and Oracle benchmarks, that you can have 20,000+ connections which sounds cool, till you read the fine print and see each query takes over 5 minutes! I don't remember where I read that, but it was posted on slashdot a while back. Hope that helps.

RE: store video file into MySQL database server
Why not change VIDEO - VIDEO_PATH and just use the directory path as a varchar() field to point you to the file stored on your computer. That way you don't have to worry about it. Whenever I need to use images or large files of some type, I just put it in a directory and reference the path to it. like this... INSERT INTO GAME GAME_ID, GAME_NAME, VIDEO_PATH VALUES(2, 'Termonator2', '/tmp/tm.mpg'); That leaves you to handle opening it or viewing it in your own code when you query though.

RE: mysql.sock doesn't exist
OK. I sent to you once on the list, and to the original poster, but it was returned from his email server (who knows). Here it goes. The most probable reason reason that file is not there is permissions. When mysqld starts (under user mysql or mysqld) it writes the file in the directory specified by the my.cnf file. If the my.cnf file says path-to-unix-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock, the user that is starting the server has to have write permissions in that directory. Otherwise it will not create the file and die. Make sure that the user who starts the server has write permissions in the directory. A simple ls -l will tell you. I hope this can fix your problem, it seems you've been stuck on this quite a while.

RE: mysql.sock doesn't exist
check that the permissions in the data directory are correct. If mysqld does not have write perms in that directory, it will not start. ls -l /var/lib/mysql mysql_install_db used to set the permissions to the user that ran the script (usually root). -Original Message- From: John Nichel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 24, 2003 9:26 AM To: Kevin H.

If you get a failed when the script is stopping the server, it's more than likely that the server is dying right after it's started.

Re: Install PHP with MySQL
yes... it seems that you do not have mysql in the PHP module. you can use --with-mysql in the php configure, but you should use --with-mysql=/your/mysql/directory PHP has included code for the default mysql build. try to use your own libs and headers.
