RE: access-mysql

2002-12-04 Thread Steve Bradwell
I saved the email last time this was posted, didn't look into it but someone
suggested looking at this site. http://www.intranet2internet.com . Another
option was to link the table, not exactly sure of all the steps but maybe
create an empty table in mysql with all fields and data types, then set up
an odbc connection to mysql then link the empty table from access to mysql
and copy data from access table to linked mysql table, this way its all done
in access.

RE: Is it possible to export data from access to MySQL?

2002-11-26 Thread Steve Bradwell
A quick way. If you don't have phpMyAdmin running set it up. It has a great
import feature. Just dump the access table to a delimited text file. Then go
to phpMyAdmin, from the main page - create a new database, or select an
existing one. from there scroll down to create a table, enter the table name
and amount of fields. Enter all field names and types. Save it, then scroll
down to Insert data from a textfile into a table and follow the
instructions. Its a piece of cake from there.

Is it possible to export data from MS Access into MySQL?
If so how?
I have a huge amount of data that will take weeks to input and I've
convinced my boss to use MySQL rather than any other DB because of it's
compatibility with PHP. However I (probably hastily) *assumed* that
there would be a way to export the data.

you're gonna get lots of neat high tech answers

because it's fun.

construct the database in mysql.

copy the access database to a working copy to be 
safe.

in the working copy, link to the mysql tables.

open the access table a and copy the data.  open 
the mysql table a and paste the data.

: )   the kid in me loves doing that.  copy and

the only reason that i don't use it in corereader 
is that it would permanently tie corereader into

server no longer starts after data folder copy.

2002-11-05 Thread Steve Bradwell
Hi All,

I have messed up my server just a bit, it no longer starts ;) I have 2
servers one on a 98 machine for testing, and another on a 2000 box that is
being set up for intranet applications at my company. I usually do changes
etc on the 98 box then just stop both servers and copy the data folder from
my 98 box to the 2000 box. This time when I wen't to restart the service on
the 2000 box i get a message Fails to start the service, please wait 30
seconds and try again. I did and no go :(
I'm new to mysql and db admin stuff so what I have been doing is probably
not the best way to do this, but it has worked for me so far. 

So can anyone tell me what I can do to fix this?

Also by simply stopping the service on the 2000 box am I actually shutting
down the server?

Is there another way I should be doing this kind of thing?

I am running mysqld-max-nt on the 2000 box, with innodb.

startup on win2000 as service not working.

2002-10-08 Thread Steve Bradwell

Hi everyone,

I have recently moved my mysql server from a win98 machine to a win2000
machine. After running the self extracting setup for mysql, I copied my
existing my.ini file over from the win 98 box, made neccesary changes to
start mysqld-max-nt from correct dir, I copied the my.ini file because of
the Innodb settings I had setup on the win98 machine. I then copied over my
Ibdata, and IbLogs directories and their contents to the win2000 box, and
the replaced the data directory with the one from the 98 box. I then started
mysql from the command prompt with mysqld-max-nt --console it said 

...Innodb: Flushing modified pages from the buffer pool... 
Innodb: Started 
Ready for connections...

And all works fine, however when I restarted the pc, and winmysqladmin.exe
was started as a service, the server is not started, I get the red light and
no server, or table information. If I then go and start it through the
console and run winmysqladmin.exe All my information appears like normal.

Can anyone suggest what I should do?

Thanks alot,
Steve.

Hi,

I checked the path, it is correct. I also tried from
c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-max-nt --install
and got the following,

The service already exists!
The current server installed: C:/mysql/bin/mysqld-nt.exe

So what I can tell is I am not running mysqld-max-nt like I thought I was,
but my.ini has all my Innodb definitions.

Any idea of what I should do, again if I start mysqld-max-nt --console from

Hi,

First run 'mysqld-nt --remove'

'mysqld-max-nt --install'

This removes the old installation of the service and then inserts a new

 I currently use MS Access as a single-user desktop database. The database

 I am considering upgrading the database. How suitable is MySQL as a

 Obviously MySQL would have advantages if I intended to use it as a server
 database with concurrent users. But is it faster than Access in the

RE: [PHP] phpMyAdmin is this possible

2002-08-20 Thread Steve Bradwell

Do you have phpMyAdmin running yet? If so you create new databases with the
click of a button. The first page you see should say Welcome to phpMyAdmin
...ver etc. If you have set phpMyAdmin to run on an existing MySQL install,
the drop down boxes should contain your existing databases if configured
correctly. To create a new database just type the name in the box on the
home page and click create, from there you can create new tables etc.

 -EDIT_LOCK is a MySQL (ver 3.23.49-max) time field, allows nulls, default

 NULL.

 If this cannot be done in a query, whats the best way to compare time in
 php?


The best way to compare time in PHP is to use the MySQL RDBMS that is
managing/retrieving the data for you.

Recommendation 1: do not use a Time field (you did mean the back 'half' of a
Date-time field didn't you?). Because you are (apparently only) using this
field to temporarily lock a row, the value is only ever used for computation
(cf display). A Timestamp field is best for computation - a Time field for
presentation. Consider also storing such data as an integer field or beware
the automatic update feature for Timestamp fields.

Recommendation 2: re-consider the (default) use of NULL - this may be the
root of the question you're asking: what if the row has never been 'locked'
and attempt the (above) SELECT? (then the last comparison clause would be
illogical) If the default were zero (0 or 00:00:00) and the retrieval logic
updated slightly, things should be less complicated.

This does not make sense. This will always be true:

  A  A + 10  =  0  10  =  true

 The field must also be greater than 00:00:00. The query below
 executes without error but doesn't return rows. Can I do this or is

 SELECT EDIT_LOCK FROM ordmaster WHERE ORDER_NO = '5' AND EDIT_LOCK  0 AND

Well, does 

  SELECT EDIT_LOCK FROM ordmaster WHERE ORDER_NO = '5'

return any rows? What about

  SELECT EDIT_LOCK FROM ordmaster WHERE ORDER_NO = '5' AND EDIT_LOCK  0

EDIT_LOCK  0 should work as expected. The rest should resolve to
true, so I do not see any reason why you do not get the desired
result. Exclude PHP from the equation, i.e. run the query in the mysql
command line client.

RE: InnoDB or MyIsam?

2002-07-05 Thread Steve Bradwell

It all depends if you need to use transactions. If you are entering items
from a cart into a database you may want to use transactions to make sure
ALL items get written correctly before you actually commit the changes to
the database. With InnoDB tables you can use transactions so if one or all
insert statements in a loop didn't work you could rollback the changes or if
they all worked, you would commit the changes to the database. You can't use
transactions with MyIsam.

Steve,

mysql_query('BEGIN');
if (is_object(mysql_query('Insert something'))){
  mysql_query('COMMIT');
} else {
  mysql_query('ROLLBACK');
}

I'm working from memory here.  I use the ADODB wrapper and it works a little
different. (Look into it, it's a great piece of code)

HTH,

indexing?

 Subject:  indexing?
 
 I've been doing some reading on indexes but I thought I should get an
 experienced persons input. My question is about Over Indexing.
 I have a MySQL MyISAM table that stores inventory transactions, in, out
 etc. I store numeric fields that are primary indexes in other tables, 2
 datetime fields and a qty field, Paul DuBois' MySQL book says that
 anything used in a where clause or join clause is a candidate for an
 index. It turns out that 7 out of eight fields fit this description,1
 primary key, 4 smallints, and 2 are datetime fields. 
 
 Should I use all these indexes or is this overkill?
 
 Thanks for any input
 -Steve.

RE: data compare and duplicate entries..

2002-05-02 Thread Steve Bradwell

Are you writing a php script, perhaps with a form and a submit button,
that connects to mysql?

Subject: Fw: data compare and duplicate entries..


hi,
I was looking for an SQL statement or script that whould allow me to compare
data when it was entered into a mysql-php field on a web page so that it
checks whether the data entered has not been used before in the database..
In short, when data needs to be entered, the statement/script must check in
the database whether the data is not already entered into the database and
if its there, return with an error.. and not allow the data to be entered...
if the data is not there, then it may be entered..

Thanx
Willem Pretorius

RE: newbie question.

2002-04-16 Thread Steve Bradwell

Ya I am running it on my local machine and I'm doing some development, I
have some people here excited about mysql and they want to play with it so I
granted them access through apache via ip address and created databases for
them, however I really don't wan't them to be able to access my databases.
Is there a way I can do this with phpMyAdmin?

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve:

That depends.  Are you running the db server on your local machine?  Or are 
you having it hosted somewhere and using PHPMyAdmin?  In the second case, 
you will have to contact your hosting company to find out how they handle 
it.  Some hosting companies severely restrict your access to the security 
tables.  If you have full access, check out:

http://www.mysql.com/doc/P/r/Privilege_system.html
and
http://www.mysql.com/doc/U/s/User_Account_Management.html

Hope this helps!
