RE: Spam - a possible cause ?
I am an experienced programmed and have worked on Unix and with Oracle and Informix for many years. I personally am struggling to get my head around Mysql (getting there now though) I think part of the reason I am posting simple questions is. 1.) I find the manual quite combersome for particular reference, ie I found finding information on adding users and the like quite hard to find easy and had to trawl through similar topics when someone on this list got me on the right track straight away and it was easy to reference the manual from the info given on this list. 2.) My past experience in other languages and RDBMS is hindering my quite bad, ie I am expecting certain restuls from certain situations and not getting them, somethings that seem quite straight forward to people using mysql is totally confusing for someone used to other products. 3.) There is a lot of conflicting information. I have a number of books on Mysql and some conradict each other and the manual, so the only way to make sure is to play/test the methods mentioned, then ask the list when something doesn't make scense 4.) People of All levels join and leave the list each day (I imagane) so reposts are quite common, If they do not apply to me or I don't feel I can help I delete them, otherwist I reply, the number or reposts is becoming a problem due (in my opinion) to a select few elite mysql people, who have strong skills with MySql and have been using it for a while, instead of ignoring the reposts (which I am sure they have seen hundereds of times) they reply back with harsh (again my opinion) or acidic comments, like this was posted 3 days ago, read the manual before wasting our time. This points out peoples re-posts to others who are not so bothered, if they just deleted what did not apply I am sure someone of similar level to the question poster would reply with a helpfull comment. On the other hand these elitist people do provide good info when needed so I don't intend to be too blaming on them. I really like the way this list works, and I have found %90 usefull and had some really indepth discussions on even the simplist questions, giving me a better understanding of the problem that I first asked. Not sure how close to the mark I am but I thought I would put my opinion in.

Hi, in Oracle I have a test database. there are 2 tables table1 and table2. there is a field on both tables called account_number. on table 1 it is set to auto increment.

RE: command mysql -u $user without typing it SORTED THANKS ALL !!!!
I had cleared down the user table, and had the correct entries, BUT I had not cleared down the DB tables, as I thought grant would do this. after clearing down the db table and then granting the privileges it worked.

RE: Sun netra's and MySQL
I have clustered Netra's together before using SUN HA and Vertias VCS. I found for large content avoid the Netra X1 - more so for webstuff, they run on a very slow IDE bus. They work excellently for say processing like the middleware box, or actual webservers but disk heavy apps I would avoid as the disks cannot keep up with the processing power. The Netra T1, what a box worth while in every way, small VERY fast got the new trendy prom cards as an option. Fast disks, excellent processing of an Enterprise Sparc Chip. Great machine. Be warned though sticking external disks on this is not as straight forward as other larger sun kit. There have both got to internal HME class cards in which work really well. Oracle didn't run to great with large ammounts of recrds, so much infact that a web customer we had we had to upgrade. take a look at smg.co.uk this runs 3 webservers on T1's load blanced in hash format, with a alteon load balancer. Connected on an internal address to a Sun 420R with a Disk array running Oracle. The netras run Java, PHP, sendmail, and a couple of other apps.

in the db table there is the db field. if I put in db1 in this field then the user test1 will only be able to connect to db1. the questions I have (I can't quite figure it out from the manual) 1.) how can I get it so test1 can connect to db1 and db2 but not db3.

I have created 3 users for mysql test1, test2, and test3 (shock horror) If I want to connect to the database as root then I understand I must do mysql -u root -p but I would like test1 2 and 3 to be able to type mysql and be either logged in as their unix username, ie test2 types mysql and connects to the database as test2 (mysql account) or at least be prompted for the password for test2. The only way I can think of doing this is by setting up an alias ie alias mysql_connect=`mysql -u $username -p` there must be some sort of autologin from username like in oracle.

RE: command mysql -u $user without typing it ????
I read similar notes on this in the manual, saying that invoking mysql without the username will try to take the unix username if it exists in the database. I tried this with test2, it opened an mysql session no problem, but when I did a connect mysql it said access is denyed for user @localhostto database mysql to me this looks like it is trying to connect with no user instead of test2@localhost can you explain this ?

I was doing a flush privileges. but this was coming up with the same thing no rows affected which to me was concerning. I have now got 1 user working but 1 user not. I am going to delete all users and start again with the users, as at the start I was not doing flush privileges and I was also trying put hostnames without DNS into the hosts field. I may have corrupted the user accounts in some way. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for the help and the good explainations though.

I was aware of the user table as a standard table. I did a select on it and it all looked fine. Loads of Y's and % for host Yet this user still cannot connect. The only explaination is corruption.

Whenever you do a GRANT, you're really just doing an INSERT or UPDATE against this table. You can do SELECTs, INSERTs, UPDATEs, etc. against this table (the 'user' table), just like any other table.

adding users (reference from O'reilly book)
I was reading about adding/managing users.
I understand hat the user table holds user information.
the example I will give is taken from the oreilly book.
insert into user (host, user, password, select_priv, insert_priv,
update_priv, delete_priv)
values ('%', 'bob', password('mypass'), 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y')
;
questions
1.) is the % a wildcard, and if so does this mean the user bob can connect
from any host ?
2.) the password function encrypts the password. If the password function is
missed out before the ('mypass') bit will it enter the password un-encrypted
? or will it just not work ?
thanks,
Matt.

Hi
If you have a new copy of MySQL use GRANT.
If you have an old copy update it.
If you can not do this then
Yes % is a wild card. Yes bob can use any host at user table is global.
Yes you can use clear text passwords.
Hope this helps.
Simon
PS I like using desc tablename
PPS Get the new O'reilly book the old one is not so good!

I just installed mysql under my new linux system. I did a test command of ./mysqladmin -u root password new-password thus setting the root users password to new-password this appeared to work. I now want to change the root users password now that I have the syntax correct. I do a ./mysqladmin -u root -p password test1 this should set the password to test1 correct ? I get this error ./mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)' can anyone explain why this is happening so that I can better understand how this command is working.

Using MYSQL and PHP With Vitual Apache Servers ?
Hi, I have a redhat server, running apache 1.3.20. The server is running a couple of virtual servers for different websites. I now wish to add a few new virtual servers/domains to the machine. However (here is the twist) these sites will need to use a different mysql schema each and have some of the content generated with php based on the data from the different mysql databases. Is this possible ??? if so what is needed to configure this setup (just brief), and I would be very interested in hearing from someone who is running virtual servers with each site using a different mysql database.

RE: Using MYSQL and PHP With Vitual Apache Servers ?
this is a perfect explination, I was concerned about the same webserver
(split into virtual) accessing different databases.
Out of interest can anyone think of ANY problems this virtual setup may
cause ? ie memory, transaction time, dns even, just anything at all so I am
trying to evaluate possiblities for different ideas.
Thanks,
Matt.
PS is anyone interested in working on any projects, I am new to both PHP and
MYSQL and I am trying my hand at some new projects, I am quite competant in
Oracle, C++, VB, Unix so it is not quite the same as working with a non
programmer.
If you are interested drop me a personal mail.

Subject: Re: Using MYSQL and PHP With Vitual Apache Servers ?
Why not just create separate databases for each virtual server? It sounds
like a perfect situation to create multiple databases, as databases do
provide data separation...
mysql create database Virtual1;
mysql create database Virtual2;
mysql create database Virtual3;
mysql create database Virtual4;
mysql show databases;
+--+
| Database |
+--+
| Virtual1 |
| Virtual2 |
| Virtual3 |
| Virtual4 |
+--+
And then in the PHP code for each website, you connect to the appropriate
database.
Say for website Virtual2:
$dbh = mysql_connect(localhost,user,pass);
mysql_select_db('Virtual2');
... Access schema for website Virtual2 ...
http://www.mysql.com/doc/C/R/CREATE_DATABASE.html
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-select-db.php
Good luck.

host not allowed to connect ? where is this config ?
I have a server called jordan, that is running mysql under linux. I have a laptop called jaguar which I am trying to launch the mysql gui on to connet to jordan. I have configured jaguar to connect to jordan, when I click connect it asks me for a password - I have not set the password yet so should this be blank. If I click ok it says host jaguar.no-dns.co.uk is not allowed to connect to this mysql server in the gui window. Is this a password problem or does work have to be done on the server to allow clients in general or the gui to connect. Thanks, Matt.

RE: As plain as the nose on your face
Thank you for explaining. I did try mysqladmin --help. This gave me a list of commands and I understood what each did however the problem was I didn't understand why the error was occuring. I get the impression you last comment was a little condesending, please remember all people where new to mysql at some point. I personally am having trouble with is as I am very much used to oracle and I am struggling to drop my old methods and embrace new one. I do read the help and man pages and the manual but sometimes things can be a little missleading, more so when you are used to something meaning 1 thing and you find out it means another with mysql. Please bare with me if I am slow on the uptake as I have tried to explain I am struggling to get my head around the basics.

RE: A News Group Perhaps.
Hi, I was wondering if the mysql list had any plans to be put onto a news group. I have only been a memeber a short time but I have found %50 of the information to be usefull. This does however mean that %50 is does not apply to me at this time. Due to this I get a lot of emails that are of no use to me at the moment. I would be keen to talk about hosting this list as a news group to make it browsable so myself and others could pick out infromation that is usefull to me at this time. The email list could stay for mass contributions but I would rather just browse for information I need. Any thoughts on this ?

I must be mental but.
I compiled without problem mysql on Redhat linux 7.1 I have just started the sever using nohup /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld This started fine without problem. as I am used to using Oracle and new to mysql I decided to do an mysql_install_db which prompted me saying remember to change password using mysqladmin -p password `password` I did this and it asked me for a password ?? what is the password and how do I change it. This command to me suggests that -p password enters the password password and the `password` is the new password ??? can someone explain ??

RE: Mysql in NFS
I have done oracle on NFS and it is not really the best option due to NFS locking. ie a poor network or if the NFS server drops, or the NIS/NIS+ (assuming you are using automount maps) dies this will hold your development/production up no end. Also oracle's table locking (not sure if mysql has this) causes problems over NFS. The only time I have seen it work ok was on a veritas cluster using the Oracle/NFS export as a failover and it worked BAD the machine failed over quite a few times and picked up but the machines had to be very powerfull as there was tons of rollbacks and non commited transactions, and non bound variables over NFS was s slow. I am sure you could do it but it is not wise. I have stored Oracle binarys on NFS so that clients could access oracle and manage it over NFS but never had good performance keeping the data on NFS.

RE: Problems compiling under Solaris 2.6
Hmmm, Good thinking. However, the files needed (autoconf) is in /usr/local/bin - which is in my $PATH. a which shows autoconf so I know it can be seen without any problems. There is no ld.conf.so under solaris 2.6. Any more suggestions as I am having big problems with this. Thanks, Matt. -Original Message- From: Alan W.

MD MD Hi, MD MD I am running fully patched Solaris 2.6 on a Sun ultra 2 server. MD MD I am running a simple MD MD ./configure --enable-thread-safe-client --with-mysqld-user=dba MD MD and yes the dba account exists. MD MD There is 2 problems with this. MD MD 1.) if you examine the output of configure you will notice the it cannot MD find autoconf - although if you view pkginfo output you will notice that MD autoconf is present and in the search path. Why is this and how to fix ? Make sure that these packages are in your PATH. MOST SMC packages install in /usr/local, so having /usr/local/bin in your PATH should be sufficient. MD 2.) if you read the end of the configure output you will notice an error. MD I am unsure what this error means, and the librarys that it complains MD COULD be missing are infact installed in the correct place. Make sure that ALL of your library directories are in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH, or listed in /etc/ld.so.conf. I'm not sure it /etc/ld.so.conf exists in Solaris 2.6 or not, as that majority of my work has been in Solaris 8. However, I have had successfull compiles under 2.4, 2.5.1, 2.6, 7, and 8. -- Alan W.
