RE: Parser seems to have problems with '-' (dash).
I believe I ran into this problem before, and I'm pretty sure that a back tick will work. NOTE: a backtick is not the same thing as a single quote Using the backtick will also help you handle (and hopefully rename) tables and so forth that accidentally or unknowingly use a reserved keyword. using mysql-front, it had a bad tendancy to enclose table names with backticks, and so table creation would be allowed, but when i tried to access the table from the command line i got all sorts of errors, and using the backticks again worked. So try the back tick (`table-with-dash`) and see if that works.

RE: Using MS Access as front end to mysql database
Depending on your OS, you might be able to implement security through the network layer via IPSec. I run mySQL between two Windows2k servers, with the mySQL server requiring the web server (in this case, a remote client to the mySQL server) to establish an IPSec tunnel in order to connect. It works very well. However, this perhaps is only a good solution where the servers/workstations involved are static and well defined. mysql query Mike Grabski -Original Message- From: Fernando Grijalba [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 10:17 AM To: MySQL Help Subject: RE: Using MS Access as front end to mysql database Just be careful because the connection can be looked at and if there is sensitive data going through someone who wants to can get their hands on it.

RE: MySQL4 on Linux with Intel Hyperthreading CPUs?
If the OS can use hyperthreading, fortunately, benchmarks are showing that there's no preformance hits because of overhead created trying to keep resource contention down. This is good! So if your system _can_ support hyperthreading, leaving it on won't hurt, if it doesn't improve your system's performance. If the OS doesn't support hyperthreading, then it just won't use it, obviously, so it's not an issue. But as far as MySQL's usage and performance in particular with hyperthreading procs, I don't have any experience :/ Mike -Original Message- From: John Dell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 6:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MySQL4 on Linux with Intel Hyperthreading CPUs?

RE: Serwer Hardware p4 or pIII ?
I saw some discussion on this topic last night, and forgot to put in my .02: Whomever said that memory and hard disk hardware should be the focal point in a new mySQL DB server, and not processors, I very much disagree with. While I agree that ample and fast memory, in addition to an efficient, reliable, and speedy storage system, is vital, neither of those mean squat if you don't have a high speed bus and powerful CPU to do the computations. You can have gigs and gigs of RAM and the fastest SCSI RAID array, for all I care, if it's still on a tiny 100MHZ FSB (like _original_ P3s), you still have a huge bottleneck looming on your horizon. I've been an AMD user for quite some time, and I really think AMD can kick some butt, but I think the statement that P4 FPU performance is poor is not entirely correct. the 2.53GHz P4 is right on par, if not better, than all but the highest (2600+) AMD XP chips. The 2.8 certainly edges them out, and the 3.06 GHz's performance is ASTONISHING. This is based on multiple benchmarks I've either seen or done, so I'm not just talking whitepapers (and keep in mind, I've been a big AMD fan for a couple years now). I refused to be impressed by the performance of Intel's processors, but this made my head spin. As far as cash goes, yes the 3.06 is VERY expensive (around $700 right now), but the other tiers below it are getting ever more reasonable. It comes down to cash flow, I think. P3's strong points is that they are tried and true, powerful, reliable, but inexpensive. P4's fast memory bandwidth, and the upper echelon of P4s are just impressive, but expensive. AMD's are cheap and pack a good punch. I won't go into Xeon, MP, and other multi-proc stuff, that's a slightly different ballgame. I very much agree with mixing and matching different types of boxes based on their strongpoints.

I am running a few AMD based servers in our offices here and have no issues with them. The big question is, What kind of operations are you most likely to see with your servers? If the servers will be doing some heavy floating point operations stay away from the Intel P4. (Unless recent versions have been fixed.) The Pentium 4 has a TERRIBLE FPU. If you need high FPU and MUST stick with Intel, then by all means look for Pentium III CPUs or look from some Pentium Xeon CPUs. If you aren't brand specific, take a look at AMD. They perform admirably for FPU options. For instance, there is one workstation application that we have for developing CNC Mill cutter path that simply tears things up when it is run on an AMD chip. Our old system would take nearly an hour to generate the same cutter path that is generated in less then 30 seconds on the AMD Chip. (Athlon 2000+ XP) In the tests performed by our vendor, a similar speed Pentium 4 takes quite a bit longer to generate the same cutter path. Something close to 5 minutes longer. Of course, that's all FPU doing the work there. The one thing that the P4 has over the AMD Athlon XP and P3 CPUs is raw memory bandwidth. It can easily outpace both of those other processors for VERY specific operations, like video editing and other HIGH Memory bandwidth hungry applications. Depending upon what you are building, you might want to utilize more then one CPU type across several boxes to be able to utilize the strengths of each processor design. Good luck!

RE: newbie PHP/mySQL query
Agh... I apologize to all. Did not read the question asked correctly.
As far as order is concerned, you need to add ORDER BY field sort
order, DESC for descending, ASC for ascending
if you have a date field, this would probably be the best to use.
And example might be SELECT field1, field2, field3 FROM news ORDER BY date
DESC
Again, my apologies.

Which would be a faster query:
I am building a forum as part of a site, and the forum is broken into three tables, a forum table, a thread table, and a post table. All tables have indexes for common SELECT statements, to increase speed. Example- A user posts a new thread: One method would be 3 queries to insert/update (insert into post, insert into thread, update forum) and 1 simpler query to read (SELECT forum info and stats), and in another method, 2 queries to insert/update (insert into thread, insert into post) and one slightly more complex query to read, using a query similar to this: SELECT COUNT(*) AS totalreplies, postid, threadid, userid, username, posteddate FROM post GROUP BY posteddate ORDER BY posteddate DESC At smaller volumes the query times are all very similar and not very substantial. I'm curious as to what the fastest method would be, at higher volumes. Thanks in advance for any thoughts, ideas or info.

I've found plenty of products that will do this, of course, I'd rather do it myself. here's some links i've found: http://www.convert-in.com/acc2sqlp.htm http://ultradev.buzzinet.co.uk/mysql/tutorials/converting_data/index.asp http://www.winmysql.com/ i hope that helps at all. If you find anything useful, would you be able to pass the word along? Thanks.

RE: ID in table
I believe auto_increment uses the last highest value inserted into the record. So if your first insert is 1000, it will count up from 1000 there on after. Correct me if wrong.

RE: Coldfusion?
Interesting story. We run Windows 200 servers, and we axed MSSQL and CF/ASP. i would (and do) run php even on a windows box. i guess the only problem it brings is no stored procedures, and people freak out if they don't have that enterprise interface. oh well. mySQL runs better even on a win32 platform (IMHO). -Original Message- From: Nally, Tyler G. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 2:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Coldfusion? -Original Message- From: Andy Ingham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] We've been running Cold Fusion with MySQL on the Solaris platform for almost two years now and have had such terrible problems with Cold Fusion errors that we have begun the process of migrating to PHP. Our average load has been about 30,000 .cfm pages (linked to MySQL backend) served per week, which I don't consider to be too heavy a load to expect the system to handle successfully. Unfortunately, our log files are riddled with fatal Cold Fusion errors and subsequent restarts. It got so bad that we had to institute a cron job to check for the happiness of the CF processes every 3 minutes and restart them if there was a problem. Oh boy... I'll confirm that as well. I previously worked at Macmillan Computer Publishing (www.mcp.com) when I wrote The Personal Bookshelf and migrated that application from cgi-bin/perl and dbm arrays to Cold Fusion/Oracle all on Solaris. It was CF version 4. And it was really bad. In a development environment where there is limited access, and the machine load is relatively low, it's no problem. Yet, the webstats were saying we had approximately 8,000 users using the Personal Bookshelf at any one time, so it was going to be put under a heavy load once it is in production. Such happened and CF really really choked. The machine suffered under a really high *load*. Typically above 90%. The sysadmins joked that the machine was working so hard it was glowing in the corner. We optimized the code over the course of a couple of weeks scruitinizing the CF markup for more efficient ways to do things in order to get it down to a load. We got the load down to between 60-70% as I remember, which was still too high. Not only was the machine at an unusually high load, but the CF server would die periodically between every 10-45minutes. The sysadmins eventually wrote a script to check the health of the CF server instance that'd run every 3 minutes to determine whether or not it should restart CF automtically. It was a really bad situation. We talked with Allaire and they couldn't believe the problems we had with CF on Solaris. At the time, Allaire said that we had the largest *nix based CF application on the www with a Sun Ultra with 4 GB of RAM tied to a pretty heavy amount of disk space, etc. We provided them with database schema's, data, and our code ... and let them try it out. They did. And they confirmed everything we had said...even in their environment. They said the design of the database and the coding of the pages didn't contribute to the poor performance of the CF engine. Ultimately, they said they couldn't help us because the thing in CF that was causing all of the problems (they said) was a simulated windows registry that CF requires in order to operate. They said that we were also suffering from a lot of errors where CF would loose database connections and not keep threads alive like they would in a non-*nix environment without a heavy load. They had no answers for us at all. They suggested that it be monitored constantly so that the application stays running as much as possible. When I heard about the simulated registry for *nix servers built into CF, I nearly hit the roof! I couldn't hardly believe it. That was a couple of years ago, and CF has went from 4 -- 4.5 -- 5. Under a windows environment, it's probably pretty good. Under *nix (Solaris in my experience) it really left much to be desired. I'd avoid it and stick with php on Solaris any day.

RE: I must be mental but.
There shouldn't be a space after -p password, also don't forget to put the user in there, unless you are using the default user (usually root, although i've noticed on win32 it seems to be 'ODBC') ex: if your password is test, the command would be mysqladmin -u user -ptest newpassword By all means, correct me if i'm wrong. It's happened before ;) Mike -Original Message- From: Matthew Darcy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2001 9:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: I must be mental but.

RE: Pictures in mysql
as someone suggested, if you have ASP, you can get an upload module. if you
have php 4, you already have full capability to upload images, either using
FTP, or if your server will let you copy from the temporary directories, for
instance:
page 1 has a form that allows you to select an image on your harddrive, in a
variable called fileupload.
the form target has a script similar to this:
if(!$fileupload = none) {
copy($fileupload,[target]);
unlink($fileupload);
}
at the same time, you can simply insert [target] reference into your mySQL
database. the above will only work, of course, if you have the correct
permissions on the server's temp folder.
