rpm packages for 4.0.20 (compat-libs)

2004-05-23 Thread Thomas Seifert
Hey folks,

just wanted to upgrade from 4.0.18 to 4.0.20 but found the following.
The Dynamic client libraries (including 3.23.x libraries) are still 4.0.18 ...
does that mean that they don't NEED to be changed or were they just forgotten?


TIA,

Thomas

Re: problem with mysql-crashes

2003-07-23 Thread Thomas Seifert
Hi Lenz,

thanks a lot for your reply!

 Is that a self-compiled binary or one of ours?

It are the MySQL-4.0.13-MAX-RPMs from your site.

 Not very helpful. Does this occur under high load only?

Yeah I know, otherwise I would have tried to generate a reproducible testcase with a 
given query or such.
Any way to have valid pointers there?

Nope, the load on that system is mostly around 0.5 with peaks up to 1.5, not something 
I would call 
a high load for a dual-system. Also the crashes are at many different times (even in 
the deep night) 
so I don't think its related to load :-(.



 What version of glibc is this system running on? Is it 2.2.3 by chance?

Nope, sorry. Its glibc-2.2.4-32.

 What version of glibc is being used on that system? I noticed that you use
 the Max binary, which is dynamically linked - so it will use the locally
 installed libc.so. Is there any special reason for using Max? Or could you
 try to use our statically linked Standard binary instead?

Yeah I could try that instead, maybe I should try with 4.0.13 to see if its a problem 
of
that version. Or should I better try 4.0.14 already?
I was hosting a couple of bdb-tables for some time, but no longer now. 
Currently only myisam and innodb-tables so I could try the standard-built too.

 The problem above looks very similar to the problems we had when we linked
 against glibc 2.2.3 instead of 2.2.5: under high load, a mysqld thread
 starts eating up all CPU resources on an SMP system. Unfortunately we
 never found the reason for that - it did not seem to happen when using
 glibc 2.2.5...

Hmm, maybe 2.2.4 has the same problem? The problem is that the init-process is taking 
all the cpu, didn't see a mysql-process doing the same before.


Thanks,

Thomas

stalled mysqld-processes?

2003-03-04 Thread Thomas Seifert
Hi folks,

running mysql-4.0.x since the early versions without any problems, I had 
a problem 3 days ago.
I'm not sure if its mysql-4.0.x-related but maybe anyone may shed a light on it.
MySQL is running with the query-cache enabled (16 MB cache for it, 33% cache-hits).

That day mysql got pretty unresponsive, connects where just hanging, the 
shutdown-script
didn't shut down mysql because it didn't quit on the TERM-signal, only KILL really 
helped
to shut it down by force.
It was MySQL-4.0.9, in the meantime I've upgraded to 4.0.11.

Any problems which could have caused it? Or how could I trace it any further, in case
it happens again


TIA,

Thomas

Re: fatal error

2002-11-30 Thread Thomas Seifert
compile php with mysql-support, i.e. configure --with-mysql 
and so on.

If you are on a redhat system and using the installed apache-webserver,
then there should be a package php-mysql*.rpm or similar which needs to be
installed.

Thats not a real mysql-problem. ;-)

if you run more than one binary it will NOT use the same

  In your documentation you have a small section regarding running

  I do understand that, but you do recommend that you have different
  versions compiled for this issue, even though you can run the database
  servers with just different switches.
  
From a performance issue, I believe that you should run with just one
  binary, that will be occupy the same physical memory for the two
  multithreaded processes, even though they have different command line
  switches.
  With two different binarys will the physical memory requirement be twice
  as much.
  But it might be easier to get a system working when you have two
  different binarys. But I believe that users that can recompile your
  software with some different settings also have the competence to adjust
  runtime switches.
  
  What is wrong with the argumentaion above?

 other benefits.
 
 But the performance could be a reason on its own to use InnoDB. I don't

 what I mean is that InnoDB can be used in all tasks MyISAM is suitable
 for, and some tasks will be done faster using InnoDB.

But some tasks are really bad in InnoDB, at most selects and worst if it
comes to table-scans.

index_priv and creating indexes

just wanting some headsup on the following question.
How does the index_priv catch in at all?
Does a missing index_priv also block me to create a table with indexes in the

Or does it only affect the later creating of indexes?

Re: Gui admin clients - security concern?

2002-09-06 Thread Thomas Seifert

for a gui running on your local system the ISP has to open a remote connection which is
already security problem.
Also the data-flow between your client and the server is not encrypted.

Tools like phpMyAdmin run on the ISPs webserver with a local connection and so there
is no problem with a remote connection at all.

where is replication logged?

2002-08-21 Thread Thomas Seifert

Hi folks,

I was just wondering, where I can see, which queries are used from the bin-log.
I am using a setup with ...do-table so I restricted it but I am not sure if all the 
queries
are taken to update the tables.

is there a log where I can see, what was done?
I looked at the relay-log but mysqlbinlog (from 3.x.) didn't show all the lines in 
there!?

And for the records, 3.23.49 as master and 4.0.2 as slave, both on the same machine
with different ports and sockets.

Any ideas?

Re: Persisten Connections

2002-08-14 Thread Thomas Seifert

And I disagree with this view.

If you've got a server with 512 MB RAM and running the webserver and the
db-server on the same machine, 100 idling mysql-processes are a HUGE overhead.
At most if not every http-request requires a mysql-connection.

I did many benchmarks and I got a huge decrease of the server-load as I disallowed
persistent connections through the php.ini.

I am serving around 180K pageviews/day with this config and on the described server.

AFAIK it is MUCH more than 100K per mysql-process and a large process table is also
of no gain.

I may have to agree to your view but only if you have different servers for webserver
and database, but I never tested such a config.

 Persistent connections have little or nothing to do with increasing load!
 
 Given that you mention you are using PHP I'll assume you have mod_php running 
 in Apache. Each Apache child process in this configuration will maintain ONE 
 open database handle, so 100k pageviews per day I would expect you might max 
 at like 30k in one hour, or around 10/second, so you might top out at roughly 
 100 Apache child processes at any one time, thus 100 database connections.
 
 Each DB connection is not a huge overhead, but creating and destroying 10 
 database handles PER SECOND is a large overhead!!! Remember, every time mysql 
 creates a connection it has to do internal queries on the grant tables. I 
 don't know exactly what the overhead of that is going to be, but ANYTHING 
 that creates 10 queries per second is putting some strain on your database 
 server!
 
 One of the main goals of using Apache modules for scripting was to allow 
 persistent database connections. There is really NO reason to give up that 
 advantage. Remember, MySQL is multi-threaded, with one thread per connection, 
 so the resources for a database connection are on the order of under 100k of 
 memory per connection.
 
  it will reduce the load for sure!

many tables in one database, impact on performance?

2001-06-11 Thread Thomas Seifert

Hi folks,

just another question.
I have a lot of tables in one mysql-database (around 3200 for now) because 
I am running Phorum with a lot of boards.
(yes I am working on it to split it in different databases but it can take 
a while).

So my question is ... does that mass of tables in one database have some 
impact on the performance of mysql?
Could it be, that it creates higher load on the server it is running?

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

thas just a difference in the apache-config from caldera.
That has nothing to do with mysql!

Thomas


- Original Message -
Jeremy,
   Yeah I follow you and as a LInux user of 5 years I am accustomed to
seeing
multiple processes launched for the same executable but

I installed the same version of Mysql on a 2nd machine on my LAN.
The
difference being the 2nd installation was on Caldera 2.4 edesktop and
was
the rpm install.. My process question was vs. regarding the compiled
from source
 same version on Caldera 2.3..Same version of Mysql should Launch the
same processes, No?

   The rpm package shows these associated processes only when I command
#prompt  ps  x
679S  0:00   sh /usr/bin/safe_mysql  --user=mysql
--pid-file=/var/
774S  0:01   httpd -f /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf -D  AUTH_MYSQL
-D

The src  package shows these associated processes only when I command
#prompt  ps  x
 754 ?S  0:00 httpd -f /etc/httpd/apache/conf/httpd.conf
  790 ?S  0:00 sh /usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld

--basedir=/usr/local/
  876 ?SN 0:00 /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld
--basedir=/usr/local/

   Notice the difference in the apache server conf  between versions...
The compiled source did not produce a mod auth_mysql.conf
Which is named in a  IfDefine AUTH)_MYSQL in a Apache.conf
It appears to use a mod_dav.conf a  mod_perl.conf, a mod_php.conf and a
mod_roaming.conf  ONLY on Caldera 2.4 rpm install of MYSQL   or
perhaps, is this some module coding stuck in there by CALDERA with 2.4
ver.?

Please Shine a light over here ..   :^) ..
