Re: Running mysql (complete newbie)
Hi guys/gals, the problem is directory perms but not in the tmp. And yes
you should have my.cnf in your /etc (can change this location but cant
remember where), and there are sample cnf files in the support-files
directory of mysql.
As far as the directory issue goes simply run:
chown -R mysql data
chgrp -R mysql data
in the mysql directory. Obviously you need to have a mysql user, and
this lets that user, and only that user write to the data directory, or
even enter it for that matter (besides root of course).
HTH!

Hi Sanya
Don't appear to have a file called my.cnf anywhere on my system. Should
I have? If so how should it be formatted, and what should be in it?

Hi guys and gals,
I'm a complete newbie to mysql, so please bear with me.
Today I downloaded mysql4.0 binary distribution and installed it on my

/usr/local/mysql-standard-4.0.14-pc-linux-i686
and I've created a symbolic link to give me /usr/local/mysql
I then ran scripts/mysql_install_db (as root). The output was:

also tried the perl script run-all-tests, but it just reported mysql

Replacing text on query..
Hello all. I was wandering if it was possible to do a general replacement of text on a query. What I want to do is for any fields that equal 'false' to be replaced with 0 and any fields that equal 'true' be replaced with 1. Now I know you can do if statements, but I have a whole bunch of fields and don't really want to go down the route on all of the fields. But if I have to I will.

RE: Replacing text on query..
Thanks for pointing that one out. Unfortunately relplace(table.*, ...) does not work (syntax error) so I'll stil have to go through each field individually.

RE: Alter table error
Thats what I thought, but wasnt the case. The directory was open to full control by everyone. I did fix the problem though. It turns out this is an issue with windows not letting anyone edit a file that is in use. And when a table is used mysql will cache and hence windows thinks it's in use and will lock it. I just had to do a mysqladmin -u root refresh and I was able to edit the table. God how I've missed windows! blah! Thanks for the pointer though. I ended up finding this solution somewhere through google, can't remember where atm though. -Nick On Wed, 2003-01-08 at 19:19, Jennifer Goodie wrote: ERROR 7: Error on rename of '.\helpdesk\call_information.MYI' to '.\helpdesk\#sql2-b90-81.MYI' (Errcode: 13) Any ideas on why I would get this??

Re: returning top two values
Not a problem. I think the easist way to do it is SELECT * FROM families ORDER BY score DESC LIMIT 2 Of course you need your grouping statement in there but the ORDER BY section shouldntmake a difference. There are MAX and MIN functions but my understanding is that those will only return THE highest/lowest values and not say the highest two values. It would work Ibelieve if there were two families with the same highest score. Someone correct me if I'mwrong. -Nick Hi, I have a table containing data on a number of families. I want to retrieve members of each family that have the two highest scoring values for a column. i.e the max and second max.

SBS and MySQL
Hello all, We recently Installed MySQL on M$ lovely Small Business Server, and since then we have been experience some problems. I was wondering if any one had experience with SBSand MySQL and if they did or did not have any problems with it. Personally I don't think it is MySQL that is crashing it but try telling that to the IT guys =) Apparently some of the problems include the kernel crashing and some of the backups are failing for no apparentreason. Is there any way at all that MySQL could be responsible for these? I wouldn't thinkthat MySQL would do this as it simply runs as a service and doesn't particularly mess with anywindows settings.

PHP Question
Ok so this really doesnt have anything to do with MySQL but I thought this might be a good placeto ask. Ok heres the problem. I am constructing a Message Board with MySQL and php (was usingASP) and I dont want the user to reload/repost data. For example, say the user goes to post amessage, after they hit the post button it takes them to a temp page saying that there post wassuccesful with a link to go view the post. The problem arises if some one decides to hit thereload button. Because of the way I have the posting page setup it will reload the page and postthe message again! doh! Anyways, has anyone come up against a similar problem and found a way around it? Thanks in advance. -Nick - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

RE:PHP Question
Thanks for all of you who responded with ideas. I think I'm going to go with the temp page,redirect solution. Seems to me that this is the simplest and easiest way to deal with it. I could have dont it with MySQL as some one stated by entering a unique identifier andkeeping track of that, but generating and passing that around could become a hassel, and Iknew there must have been a better way.

Text Field Inserts
I'm having a problem with trying to come up with a work around for this common(?) problem. I'mnew to using MySQL but have gotten a handle on it pretty easily. My problem is that I'm using itto develop a simple message board and of course message boards have a lot of text in them. My problem is when a user types in a word like can't or it's or something similar. You can see the problem in that ' will stop the current string and the next characters will be a newone, which of course wrecks havoc on the statement. Also haven't experimented with other punctuation but anything else to look out for would be nice as well.
