You're right.. it didn't stop the process, but did cause the warning..

Hrm...  I tried to repro this by upgrading from 4.0.13 to 4.0.15 on
another machine and was unable to...

Aha...  I think I figured it out...

I have the MySQL-4.0.15-0.src.rpm in the same directory...  I'll bet
that an rpm -Fvh automatically installs the source..  The source is
"owned" by mysqldev, isn't it...  :)

Yup, appears to be...  Thanks for the info though!

mysqldev user ?

2003-09-10 Thread Jason Frisvold
All,

I recently updated the RPM files on my Linux box to 4.0.15 ...  During
the update, I received the following error :

warning: user mysqldev does not exist - using root
warning: user mysqldev does not exist - using root

Can someone please explain to me what this user is and what it's being
used for?  This was generated during the update of the MySQL-shared RPM.

If I'm missing out on increased security because of this, I really want
to know!

I checked the release notes, but I don't see anything in there related
to this user...  

Thanks!

Optimizing with TEXT fields

2003-05-31 Thread Jason Frisvold
Hi all,

I'm in the process of designing a database and I'm a bit of an
optimization freak ...  I'd like to make sure that the actual structure
of the database is optimal.

With that said, my question is about TEXT fields.  In the actual CREATE
TABLE statement, would it make the table "faster" if the TEXT fields
were at the end of the table definition?

In fact, should VARCHAR fields be there as well?

Thanks,

Continuing a previous selection

2002-11-15 Thread Jason Frisvold
I want to select a large amount of data from the database, but I can't
use it all at once.  Is there a way to "pick up where I left off" and
get another X rows of data?

For instance, suppose I have the following table in a database :

CREATE TABLE namelist (nameid   INTUNSIGNEDNOT NULL  
PRIMARY KEYAUTO_INCREMENT,
   First_Name   CHAR(50),
   Last_NameCHAR(50))

This table has 500 rows.  I want to select the data, order it by last
name, and limit the select to 10 rows at a time.  After I display this
data, I want to be able to go to the next 10 rows ...  Or, perhaps view
the data and select to jump 50 rows ahead ...

My initial thought was to use the nameid field to do this, however, I
cannot since I'm ordering the data.. There is no way to be certain that
the order that comes out keeps the nameid values in order ...

So how is this accomplished?  I see it done all over the place, but I
have no idea how to do this on my own ...

The program that will be doing this is written in perl using the perl
DBI and the mySQL DBD...

Any help would be greatly appreciated...!

Major MySQL Server Problems

2002-10-07 Thread Jason Frisvold

Greetings,

We're experiencing some severe problems with MySQL and I'm at a loss as
to what to look at ...  It seems we've encountered some sort of a loop
but I'm not sure what's causing it.  The system will run fine for a
while and then begin using 100% cpu on both processors in the system.

We've spent several days trying to track it down and I believe we may
have found the process responsible, but I haven't seen anything at all
in that process that's suspect.  It's a fairly simple perl script that
generates some email addresses via the db.  It has to use several
different db's to do so, but again, I can't see it putting a lot of load
on the system doing this.

Can anyone help me pinpoint this problem?  It's causing the entire DB
to run extremely slow and because of this we sometimes lose data. 
Killing and restarting the DB speeds it back up, but I believe this is
because it kills those DB connections and the processes fail.

The system is a Dell PowerEdge 2650
Dual 1.4 Ghz Intel P3 Processors
512 Meg RAM
MySQL 3.23.52
RedHat Linux 7.3
Hardware Raid 5
The DB partition is 4 GB, only 300 Meg used.
Overall, the HD's are less than 50% full.

Any help or suggestions are gladly welcome!

Thanks,

MySQL Stability Problem

2002-09-24 Thread Jason Frisvold

Hi all,

I seem to be running into a stability problem with our current mySQL
server.  I'm at a loss as to where to begin looking.  We first noticed a
problem with large files being created in the /tmp directory.  That
hasn't happened since, but yesterday the server bogged down twice. 
There were about 100 or so connections to the server, mostly sleeping,
and the server was acting extremely sluggish.  It took about 60 seconds
to get a processlist via mysqladmin...

Can anyone give me any pointers as to where to look first?  Are there
any settings I can tweak that may help this?  The machine is a dual 1.3
Ghz machine with 512 Meg RAM   It used to be running on a dual 733
Mhz machine and we never experienced anything like this ...

read the documentation in the my.cnf sections

you can supply 
datadir=/usr/data/mysql (or whatever the data directory you choose)

make sure mysql has permissions on the new directory

a couple other things rely on this base directory too
your socket file
your pid file

You can set these too in your /etc/my.cnf

pid-file=/usr/data/mysql/mysql.pid
socket=/tmp/mysql.sock

or some such directories

Your err files will write to the datadir you specify

MySQL Queries

2001-09-23 Thread Jason Frisvold

Setup :
MySQL 3.23.42
Perl 5.6.0
DBI 10.32


I’m trying to do a few different queries where the table name needs to be
dynamic.  I’ve tried the following :

$dbquery = $dbhandler->prepare_cached(“SELECT id, target FROM ? where
somedata=?”);
$dbquery->execute($tablename,$somedata);

But I keep getting an error….  The error looks something like this :

DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax near
''mod1' where id='test.1'' at line 1 at ClassMRTGDB.pm line 73.
DBD::mysql::st fetchrow_array failed: fetch() without execute() at
ClassMRTGDB.pm line 75.

Anyone know why this isn’t working?  Do I have to specify the table name in
the actual prepare statement every time?


Also, assuming I only run execute’s after I first define $dbquery, is
$dbquery guaranteed to be there until the program exits?  (I’m not
redefining $dbquery at any time…)  I’m pretty sure it is, so I’m just
checking.. Otherwise I need to write code to check on it..  ☺

Thanks,

REPLACE vs INSERT/UPDATE

2001-09-21 Thread Jason Frisvold

Currently I'm checking to see if a value exists in the database before
deciding whether to update it or insert it.  Would this be quicker to do if
I merely used REPLACE?  Is that the purpose of the REPLACE command?  If it
exists, just update it, and if it doesn't exist, insert it?

Thanks,

Update TimeStamp

2001-04-02 Thread Jason Frisvold

Is there any way to query a mySQL database for the last time it was updated?
I need this ability to trigger a "restart" in some other applications that
create config files and such for MRTG...

Thanks,

Database Permissions

2001-02-26 Thread Jason Frisvold

Greetings,

I'm having a little trouble understanding how the permissions work
within mySQL.  I have 3 current databases.  The first is the default mysql
database, and the other 2 are ones that I have created.  I want to be able
to grant access to each table individually based on username.  Hostname
isn't really a big deal to me because of the firewalls.  Basically, if they
can get to the database server, then they belong there.  But, I want to
limit what they can get to via username.

So, I tried the following :

insert into user (host, db, user, select_priv, insert_priv, update_priv,
delete_priv) values ('%', 'myuser', password('mypass'), 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y');
insert into db (host, db, user, select_priv, insert_priv, update_priv,
delete_priv) values ('%', 'database1', 'myuser', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y');
insert into db (host, db, user, select_priv, insert_priv, update_priv,
delete_priv) values ('%', 'mysql', 'myuser', 'N', 'N', 'N', 'N');
flush privileges;

I *thought* this would allow access to database1, and not mysql, but
apparently I was wrong...  I can still access the mysql database, make
changes, etc. without any restrictions.

What am I doing wrong???!!!???

Also..  Is there a way to allow a user to connect to the mySQL server, not
specifying a database (this is via Perl and DBI), and get a list of
databases that they have permissions to?  (What I'd like to do is let them
list all db's except those they have no permissions on...)  I have it
working so that they can list all the databases, but it will list everything
on the server..  (This may be a moot point when I get actual permissions to
work...)

RE: MySQL Tables over Multiple Drives

2001-01-30 Thread Jason Frisvold

Well, there are a few reasons..  We have a system with 4 8G drives..  If we
use one for root and one to mirror that root, we have 2 drives left.  Now,
if we raid those 2 remaining drives (RAID5) we get about 12 Gigs of space
available...  If we merely use one of the remaining drives completely, and
use the last one to mirror it, we have 8 gigs available.  On the root drive,
however, there will be an additional 4 gigs of space not used..  so again,
we're at 12 gigs, but with a higher redundancy value.

So, I want to be able to put tables in /mysql/data (8 gig mirrored) and
/data (4 gig mirrored on the root drive) so I can still use 12 gigs of space
with better redundancy...

As an aside here, does anyone have any decent information on Linux software
raids?  We have been having a large problem with them failing for no
apparent reason and I've lost enough data to last me a lifetime...  (all
backed up now...)

Yes, you've to recreate the tables with RAID option (read the manual for
details)
and move and link the directoris manually.
I think there may be a performance gain, instead of performance
hit...Because as the file spread on diff discs, the seek time gain.
The code should has been stablize already, I think.

BTW, why you want it to span over multiple drive?

RE: MySQL Tables over Multiple Drives

2001-01-30 Thread Jason Frisvold

Sam,

Thanks for the reply..  Is that a stable way of doing things?  Is
there a performance hit when using the --with-raid option?

I assume I will need to move the files manually and link them
manually as well?

MySQL Tables over Multiple Drives

2001-01-30 Thread Jason Frisvold

I looked through the manual briefly and did not see this addressed
anywhere..  Is it possible to have a table span over multiple drive without
a raid?  Or perhaps possible to specify a directory where a table will
reside other than the default directory?

Thanks,

Front End Needed

2001-01-18 Thread Jason Frisvold

I know it's not "correct" to just jump in and ask and I apologize, but I'm
under a bit of a time crunch here...

I need to find a web front end that I can use to update a table in MySQL.
What I'm looking for is a program that will display an entire table with
records as a web page for editing.  Something like a submit button at the
bottom to send in the updates to the server.  Does something like this
exist?  If not, is there a front end that I can use to first search for a
specific record(s), and then edit that record(s) 

My eventual plan is to write a robust front end to take care of this, but
for now, I need something that I can use temporarily until I can complete
the rest of this project.  I'm not worried about speed at all since the
tables are only updated once in a while.  The problem is, there are other
people that update the tables and SQL is nothing more than voodoo magic to
them...

TIA!
