Re: Compling on RedHat 9
You might want to check that the developer tools were installed with Red Hat 9; if not, you'll have trouble. The RPM is easiest to use, works like a charm.

Re: Command not found
Also make sure you installed both the server and the client for MySQL. And of course if you're not running bash, put the path to the MySQL directory in the correct shell file. For example, I prefer the tsch shell, so I would put it in the .tcshrc file in my home directory. If you're not familiar with Linux, take a look at some of the commands at http://www.reallylinux.com/docs/consult.shtml. If you want a book, http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0972679006/qid%3D1041438546/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/103-4038995-5196662 will get you a quick start.

If your MySQL binaries are installed in a directory like /usr/local/mysql/bin/, they're not in one of the directories your shell (probably bash) looks in for commands. (To see which directories are being searched, type "echo $PATH" at the shell prompt.) You'll need to edit the .bashrc file in your home directory to add the /usr/local/mysql/bin directory to the search path if you want to avoid typing the full path. Another alternative is to place links to the binaries in one of the directories already in the path, like /usr/bin/. pjm -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'd recommend Apache, www.apache.org, but be aware that Windows OSes come with a personal version of IIS that can be used as a single server (i.e., no virtuals).

Re: Handling Arrays
Yes, it should. Check it yourself by printing out array values: echo array[2]; echo array[3]; etc. If it's a really long array and you want to print the whole thing, look at foreach, http://us2.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.foreach.php "John Macon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> net> cc: Subject: Handling Arrays 09/02/2003 09:40 PM I have a quick question about arrays.

Re: Crystal Decisions Report Application Server Problem
Sounds like a problem authenticating the host the queries are coming from. Try using the grant command with like john@"%", which allows any host to connect. (replace john with the username you want.) As a historical note, we tried using Crystal RAS with Lotus Notes and concluded it was too slow and too inflexible in generating reports. Because we wanted to try FileMaker, we switched to that with better results, but my team still thinks it's slow. So I'm getting ready to recommend a switch to MySQL and PHP, which I know will be blazing fast, and it will be simple to design whatever reports are desired. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ics.ca To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: 09/02/2003 09:50 Subject: Crystal Decisions Report Application Server Problem AM I'm writing to get some help on the following problem: We're running MySql (1.4.1 version) with MyODBC (version 3.51.06) and the Report Application Server 9 (RAS) from Crystal Decisions. We're having a problem getting the Report Application Server to connect to the MySql database via MyODBC. We have two databases going - an Oracle database and a MySQL database. We wrote a simple report for each and we're trying to run the report via the RAS sample web page (e-portfolio lite). The oracle report works fine - RAS manages to display it and access the database. The MySql report fails to connect to the database - it asks for a user name and password, but always fails to connect to the database (it prompts for another user name and password). However, Crystal Reports itself run the report fine. There seems to be a disconnect between how RAS connects to the database versus Crystal Reports. Anyone able to get RAS to work?

Trim() is a function listed in my PHP Functions book, not something I wrote. It's supposed to: "removes all whitespace characters from both the left and right ends of a string..." A space (ASCII 32) is considered a char to remove, but since it's in the middle of the string, I don't understand why it's being removed. "or you could fix or replace the trim function with one that does not remove that data." Is there a library of PHP user defined functions out there?

Re: multiple databases creation
My recommendation would be to use phpmyadmin, http://www.phpmyadmin.net/. Takes just a few minutes to pull out the original database schema then feed it back to create new tables. Or you can do it with command-line instructions. 2000 small databases shouldn't be a problem as long as the server it's on can handle the load.

You can use the Bookmark property to set a bookmark (Bookmark: A property of a Recordset object or a form that contains a binary string identifying the current record.) that uniquely identifies a particular record in the form's underlying table, query, or SQL statement. Read/write Variant. Example: In VB6, I can read a bookmark in a variant like varBookmark = rsName.Bookmark Where varBookmark is a variant and rsName is a adodb recordset. Later I can go back to the same record by rsName.Bookmark = varBookmark In ASP, I'm trying to come up with a better solution where there is too much data in recordset to display at once in a web page. Exactly like when you search on Yahoo and at bottom its gives links like: Next, Next 10 and also page links like 1,2,3 14.

You must first set up your mySQL datatbase and be sure that the field types from FM are appropriate. In addition, on the high end, there is some software that will let you interface FM Pro with mySQL directly, so that you can work in FM on your local machine and then pump the data to the server transparently.

Followup on 1054 error
Thanks for all the responses to my posting below. I was using phpmysqladmin to check on updating the database, and I finally figured out that phpmysqladmin was misconfigured, with the same database on two different servers but with different column names. Naturally I was sending the query to the database with the wrong column name, which is why I got the error. Once I figured it out (by command line calls to mysql), all was well. I appreciate the advice from the list and I've changed some of the column names as responders suggested to avoid other problems. So thanks much!
