installing Binaries under /usr/local
Hello, I was wondering if there is distribution or method for me that would allow me to install mysql with a --prefix of /usr/local instead of /usr/local/mysql Normally I would just compile it but I am getting lazy in my old age and this is my first time with 4.x series, so I'll the official binaries this time. Should I just copy all the binaries over to /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/libexec /usr/local/share and be done with it? Moving from 3.23.x to 4.0.

Re: JDBC RowSets in Mysql Connector
Yeah, I was thinking about doing the scrolling results thing using a pure java solution. I will look into the CachedRowset from Sun, thanks for that info. I still believe the mysql driver is cool. What's up with the docs, though? Mark Matthews wrote: Vincent Stoessel wrote: Hello, I am working on a J2EE app and I really would love to take advantage of jdbc 2.0's RowSet functionality. Is Connector J (2 or 3) compliant with this part of the standard? No. There hasn't been a large demand for support of that API, and it's not required to be JDBC-compliant. What particular feature of a rowset would you be using that isn't in java.sql.ResultSet? There are a lot of third party ones that do work with MySQL. Sun's CachedRowset provider (from java.sun.com) is one. -Mark -- Vincent Stoessel Linux Systems Developer vincent xaymaca.com - 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: mysql with java
Hmm, I have done some java/linux development using mysql and it works fine using the jdbc api. I highly recommend using Mark Mathews' jdbc driver in your java development area. It is licensed under GNU LGPL. http://mmmysql.sourceforge.net/ Be sure to join the mysql-java mailing list for questions to the java/mysql community.

Help, any convert(legacy) function? in mysql?

a column of names
One thing that has always puzzled me is how poeple are
gaurding against duplication in columns where people's
names are stored.
For example this table has a persons's first and last name.
Stars:
starID
starFirstName
starLastName
1
Vanna
White
2
Bob
Marley
problems begin to arise when people begin adding new names to the
table. I could make a unique key out of (starFirstName,starLastName)
but what happens when someone enters ('Robert','Marley') or
('Vanna','Wihte').
I guess the solution is to force users to do a query for an existing name.
Is there a way to do a more fuzzy search than using LIKE ?
would soundex or something else be the way to go?

joins across table types?
Hello, I have finally decided to start using innodb tables in production enviroments and I noticed that I was able to do a join between a myisam table and a innodb table.

Re: [midgard-user] Re: big problem with mysqldb
I would /strongly/ advise that you discontinue the use of the Isam table type in mysql. The Isam table type is a legacy of the mysql 3.22.x series. If you are using the stable 3.23.x series Myisam is the new default type. One of the cool things about Myisam is that you CAN repair it while the database is running. You can also configure mysqld to repair tables automatically when it finds a problem. Of course you it manually still with myisamchk -r Tarjei Huse wrote: Hi, I would like to thank everyone (esp Carsten and Jocelyn) who helped me solve this problem. It now seems that the db now works ok. For the record, I suggest that isamchk should contain a warning in the help text that you should not run it when mysqld is running. This combined with isamchk -i *.ISM. Also, I'll backup using mysqldump from now on, not just tarballing my dbdirs :) Tarjei Carsten H. Pedersen wrote: isamchk -e -o page.ISM I get: Found block with too small length at 2249; Skipped ... Now what do I do?? Restore from backup? Your table structure is definitely corrupted.
