mysql-max 3.23.41 beta
Hello all, I had installed mysql-max 3.23.41 beta some time back. Now I was trying to get the binary , but cannot find it anywhere! Also, if I use the stable 3.23.41 do I make some installation etc. changes? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

RE: cannot get mysqld to start
HMM. Now I dont know why I always failed to get mysql up with the 'right' command... I am looking into setting my root password right now But please tell me if I am doing something wrong by running just safe_mysqld instead of with the parameters...

RE: cannot get mysqld to start
Dana, Thanks for looking into this further. I did all that, and ran the command mysql_install_db instead of mysql_install_db --user=mysql & as they said in the install guide! I have no clue of the difference between the two and reason why it should work on one and not on another. Would appreciate if you could shed some light on this.

BDB questions
Greetings everyone! I had 2 questions related to using BDB and mysql. I don't see any startup options for BDB, so can I safely assume that there are'nt any , so don't need a my.cnf file? Also, how do I specify 'autocommit off' every time BDB starts, instead of specifying it explicitly whenever needed, also I believe even if it is on, I can use begin and end transaction to achieve the same ?

RE: Choosing between Databases.
Hi Paul, Will not contest your claim at all since you must have tried it to make that claim. So if I agree with you, then don't you think that the statement which is posted earlier :"Berkeley DB does not support SQL queries. All access to data is through the Berkeley DB API." is misleading esp. to a novice like me or is it that I misunderstood? -Original Message- From: Paul DuBois [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 1:38 PM To: Sheena Sidhu; Mysql (E-mail) Subject: RE: Choosing between Databases.

You send the server SQL statements, it performs the appropriate translation from SQL onto the operations supported by the table handlers. It doesn't matter whether the table handlers understand SQL as long as the MySQL server does -- which it does. You can easily convince yourself of this by writing a C++ program that talks to the MySQL server to manipulate a BDB table. >Regards, >Sheena. > >-Original Message- >From: Paul DuBois [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 1:19 PM >To: Sheena Sidhu; [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: Choosing between Databases. > > >At 11:10 AM -0700 8/27/01, Sheena Sidhu wrote: >>Hello, >>I am looking into choosing between Innodb and BDB.

Hi Paul, Thanks for responding. I am not sure if I understand you fully here. SO you mean to say that BDB DOES support SQL, meaning that I send statements like 'Select * from user' to a BDB table from my C++ code? If that is possible, then great.

Hello, I am looking into choosing between Innodb and BDB. One thing about BDB which I am quoting from the official site :" Berkeley DB does not support SQL queries. All access to data is through the Berkeley DB API. Developers must learn a new set of interfaces in order to work with Berkeley DB. Although the interfaces are fairly simple, they are non-standard. " has me worried. When I looked into Innodb, I see not similar reference so can I assume that it supports SQL. Can someone please let me know if I am wrong here?

Choosing between databases.
Hello, I am very new to mySQL and researching on the various databases options. Since I needed transactions enabled, so after a lot of research, I narrowed down to innodb and Bdb. But realized that Innodb is in alpha but BDB is very stable. Although I like the features that innodb has to offer, but for stability purposes I am leaning to BDB! Please let me know if there is anything that I missed in my research, or links that I should look into before I make up my mind. Thanks, really appreciate your help.
