 Hi,

 Anyone designed a MySql database for family history?

 Any ideas,recommendations, problems ?

I know I've seen a few people with Gedcom to mysql stuff.  So I'd use that as 
a basis for searching.

 The head of the family has a child_id == parent_id

 All members of the family have different child_ids but the same
 parent_id

 Then you can do some really cool recursive fast searches.

But this does NOT work well for real life genealogy.  Think of step/half 
families, etc.  No, better to look at system's that deal with this.  Look at 
GEDCOM, genxml, or similar systems.  I know I have seen several gedcom - sql 
schema's out there, some for mysql even.

There are also several systems for archiving information such as family events 
or media, and linking those people to that data.

You might check your connection to, I received a similar on a machine 
connecting through perl/DBI, and the problem was that the DBI package merely 
needed upgrading, mysql had been set up correctly.  If your mysql really is 
set up right, you could verify this by trying to perform a transaction via 
command line.  If it works there, it's your connection most likely.

Re: Load problems with 3.23.51

2002-06-24 Thread Jayce^

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


 I have MySQL 3.23.47 running on our sever. I skipped 48 through 50 and
 tried 51. No dice. It does not handle load, CPU and the load average go
 through the roof. I'm using Red Hat Linux 7.2 and the official mysql
 binaries. It appears to be slow to connect, causing 0.5 to 1.0 second
 delay on connection.

We have had the exact opposite reaction on our RH 7.2 boxes.  .49 would 
consistently crash every hour under load (the innodb high avail_cc thingy).  
But since upgrading to .51 our load has been down, and we've only restarted 
once, to enact some .cnf changes.  For us, the upgrade has been a godsend.  
This is using the official binaries (not RPM if that makes a difference at 
all).

I know my company is having a similar problem, the reason we're not building 
our own anymore, and the same reason we're having trouble with the rpms is 
the gcc on RH which is causing us serious stability problems.  Might have the 
same problem we're having.

 We're running a custom-compiled 3.23.51 (or .52-pre, depending how you
 look at it) in production now.  It's been up for about 6 days (details
 below) and has been rock solid.

 Why not build your own?

 I can send you a binary that works for us.  But you'd really need to
 do some testing locally.

 I'm guessing that you're not a paid support customer of MySQL?  If you
 were, you might be able to get a binary out of them (but I don't know
 for sure--I've never had to ask).

Re: Results relevance

Well, you could just base the 100% off the highest returned value. 
eg, if 3.95 is the highest return, then, that's your 100%, the others are just 
percentages of that.

 If the final goal of this is a visual display, maybe it would make more
 sense
 to display relevance as a horizontal bar graph that is longer or shorter
 based on the relevance number. There is no reason to get hung up on
 percentages.

  No.  The values returned by a FULLTEXT search are simply non-negative
  floating-point numbers.  The larger the number within a result set,
  the higher the relevance, but that doesn't map onto percentage.

Hi,
You can just do
SELECT MATCH(column name) AGAINST ('searchstring') AS relevance FROM
tablename;
  
There is an example at:

I am using Perl, so if there are any scripts or modules that you know

  Hi Heikki,
 
I don't know if this has been requested, but what about a tool to

  space to 'my.cnf') and the new dataspace is available!  Maybe just
  extract the pieces from MySQL code and make it a separate tool?
 
  I know I don't want to have a server shutdown while it creates 10GB
  of Dataspace!  Of course autoextending is one answer.  One could
  just create a small dataspace and let it autoextend.

 I'll second the request.  I'm planning to test InnoDB with large
 tablespaces soon (on the order of .5TB) and would love to be able to
 create the data files off-line and add them as needed.

Ditto, I know this is one thing keeping us from going to Innodb full scale.
