Re: large temp files created by mysql
Something you're doing is creating a very large temporary table as part of handling it's query. Usual culprit would be something doing a full table join combined with an order by or group by which would typically cause MySQL to need to create a temp table. You should do EXPLAINs on your slow-running queries to find out which ones are likely... If it is generating a 30gig file, I'd expect it must be a very slow query.

Re: Slower performance with LOCK TABLES
Even for MyISAM tables, LOCK TABLES is not usually the best solution for increasing performance. When there is little to no contention, LOCK TABLES doesn't offer much value. MyISAM works best when you can get more work done in a statement: Instead of executing a bunch of insert statements, combine them into a single multi-row insert statement, as an example. On 22 Sep 2011, at 06:13, Hank wrote: Thanks for your reply. I failed to mention that these are MYISAM tables, so no transactions. And like I said, this is not a production box nor is there any application running, so there's no contention for the tables being locked. I'm trying to update a database design on two tables with 200 million records each, so anything I can do to increase the performance of these long running queries will shorten the migration running time. What I was referring to was that in the documentation, that when using LOCK TABLES, mysql does not update the key cache until the lock is released, versus when not using LOCK TABLES it does update the key cache on each insert/update/delete. see: http://tuxradar.com/practicalphp/18/2/22 In my testing, I'm seeing a slow down when I use LOCK TABLES versus running the same queries without it.

Re: From MS Access to MySQL
I have taken a Microsoft Access database and have basically copied the structure of it and rebuilt it in MySQL, however, I have encountered some problems with formatting of data. I need to ask what is the most suitable field type to use to retain the content from Access field types The MS Access fields are: Currency (formatted to £ with two decimal places e.g. £10.00) DECIMAL(nnn,2) You'll have to add your own signage ($,£, etc.) upon extraction. Currency (formatted to £#,##0.00;(£#,##0.00) Date/Time (with a Now() default) From the manual: The DATETIME type is used when you need values that contain both date and time information. MySQL retrieves and displays DATETIME values in '-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' format. The supported range is '1000-01-01 00:00:00' to '-12-31 23:59:59'. Yes/No enum() or set() Number (as a percentage) decimal() Number (with field size of Double and Decimal Places of 2) decimal() What would be the equivalent of the above for MySQL 5.1.35? If there isn't an equivalent for some, how can I work around it considering that the Access version of the database is already used in an ASP website? see: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/data-types.html --Curtis -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org

I cannot figure out what I should be entering where... I have tried

out how to modify it for my needs:

option value=31003100/option

this is possible but it must take some huge knowledge and experience
to do it.
BUT ...
as I look at things, I am wondering if the FOR statement in the above
should be used to do several INSERTs, that is, one $sql(number) per
selected category... now, would that require many $sqls or many
INSERTs within the $sql ?
first, I think, $categoriesIN is string, but in the form you made it
as an array $categoriesIN[]. I think you have to modify it a little
bit, something like {$categoriesIN}.'[]'
second, I think the php part FOR ( $ii = 0 ; $ii
count($categoriesIN) ; $ii++ ) can't be part of the mysql statement,
it should be outside the statement
FOR ( $ii = 0 ; $ii count($categoriesIN) ; $ii++ )
{
$sql4 = INSERT INTO temp (example) $categoriesIN[$ii]
;
$result4 = mysql_query($sql4, $db);

Re: JAVA UDF HOW
Hi! MySQL is an open-source product. That allows anyone to contribute patches and new features from the community. In time, when the feature is mature, it may be included in some future version. Documentation on this feature is very limited because the (2) people behind the project have only pursued it during their personal free time. The code is of alpha quality and the target audience is mostly aimed at people of expert knowledge who can largely figure out how to use it without the aid of verbose documentation. Of course, if anyone is willing to contribute documentation, it would be greatly appreciated. The forge site is a wiki: Anyone may add stuff to it.

In most respects, upgrading from MySQL 5.1 to 6.0 should present few problems with regard to Unicode usage, although there are some potential areas of incompatibility. Some examples: + For the variable-length character data types (VARCHAR and the TEXT types), the maximum length in characters for utf8 columns is less in MySQL 6.0 than previously. + For all character data types (CHAR, VARCHAR, and the TEXT types), the maximum number of characters for utf8 columns that can be indexed is less in MySQL 6.0 than previously. Consequently, if you want to upgrade tables from the old utf8 (now utf8mb3) to the current utf8, it may be necessary to change some column or index definitions.

(This is an issue only for an upgrade, not for a new installation of MySQL 6.0.4.) To work around this upgrading problem, use these instructions: 1. In MySQL 5.1, before upgrading, create a dump file containing your mysql.event table: shell mysqldump -uroot -p mysql event event.sql 2. Stop the server, upgrade to MySQL 6.0, and start the server. 3. Recreate the mysql.event table using the dump file: shell mysql -uroot -p mysql event.sql 4. Run mysql_upgrade to upgrade the other system tables in the mysql database: shell mysql_upgrade -uroot -p 5. Restart the server.

Re: User Preferences?
I think that I'd set up a varchar column and store a tab separated list in it. Then parse it upon retrieval. Curtis Dan Buettner wrote: Waynn, I've used both schemes 1 and 2 as you describe, and in my experience 2 is the best way to go. It's easy to scale up as you add users and settings, and it's easy to make changes if the meaning of settings should change (i.e. you need to do a backend change to people's settings). #1 is harder to make those kind of back end updates on, and harder for someone troubleshooting to make sense of the data. #3 may not scale well - you would end up having to track too many tables, I think. What I'm doing in my current project is using a data model that has a method for each preference setting, and returns a sensible value by default if the user has no pref set for a given lookup key; otherwise, I return what the user has set. This means adding a method every time I add a preference setting, which on the one hand means adding code - on the other hand, chances are very high that if I am adding the ability for a user to set a preference, I'm already adding code somewhere to ensure that preference has an effect.

I've come up with a few alternatives, and I'm wondering if people have ideas or suggestions, as this has to be a common problem. A quick Google search didn't turn up anything. 1. Store the preferences as a binary blob on the Users table. This blob could be either a blob, or an integer that I use application logic to read/write from, or I could use the SET datatype. 2. Store the preferences in normalized form, with a new table called UserPreferences that has UserId, Setting, Preference and we add a row for each setting of that user. 3.

Re: www.innodb.com
My guess is that its intentional. Oracle is who they are and MySQL is eating their lunch. I look for them to kill the product to try to drive MySQL out of business or make life difficult for them; hence the reason they're working on a new storage engine of their own. They tried to buy MySQL, but when they couldn't they bought up the two pieces of software that gave MySQL ACID transactions (innodb and Berkely (sp?)). They will renegotiate the contract, but make it very expensive for MySQL to license. You don't honestly think Oracle is going to be honest about this do you? They have absolutely no interest in helping MySQL survive. Sounds pretty fishy to me no matter what they're saying publicly.

date_add function
I'm having some trouble setting a future date within a table. I have one column 'this_date' which is a DATE field and I'm trying to add 90 days to it and set a column named 'future_date', also a DATE field. I don't know if the problem is that I'm trying to write the value into the 'this_date' and 'future_date' fields in the same query. UPDATE this_table SET this_date = $this_date, future_date = (DATE_ADD(this_date) INTERVAL 90 DAY) Would this work?

Hi Alaister,
Your root password is not actually set. If you do
mysql -u root -ppassword
and it fails, it means that the password is not password
if you do
mysql -u root password
the mysql client will parse password as the database you're trying
to use -- that's just the syntax of the mysql client. Which means
that your password is not very secure, because it's the same as your
database name. You should get an error like this:
ERROR 1049 (42000): Unknown database 'password'
What you should do is this:
# mysql -u root
set password=password(newpassword);
where newpassword is your new password.
hope this helps.

Yes.
Whenever you have a problem, go back to basics. Can you login as root
on the commandline? What password do you use there? Once you're
there, check root's permissions, but I'd be willing to bet your
password is incorrect, or root is only allowed to logon from localhost
and not the machine the webserver is on.

Ignoring username parameter when connecting via ssh tunnel
I am trying to connect to my mysql server through an SSH tunnel. On the server, I have a local instance of mysql running, but one of the hosted domains needs to access another remote mysql server. For security, I want to connect to the remote server via an ssh tunnel. I am creating the tunnel using the following command: ssh -L 3307:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3306 -l root -N xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -f This creates a tunnel so I can connect to port 3307 on the local server, and end up talking to the remote server on 3306. Telneting to 127.0.0.1:3307 gives me the mysql handshake. Now the fun begins when I try to use the connection. If I do: mysql -h xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -u leg_shop -p, I can log into the remote server using the username leg_shop. This works fine with no problems except the fact the traffic is not encrypted as it isnt using the ssh tunnel. If I do: mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3307 -u leg_shop -p, it connects to the remote server through the ssh tunnel, but for some insane reason, it ignores the -u leg_shop. I can enter any username of my choice (e.g. a user which is DEFINATELY not valid on the remote server), and yet it still connects. Am I missing something here ?

Richard I believe that your mysql server gets the local ip address (127.0.0.1) as connection source and not the one from your remote host which you are connecting from. You're granted access from the anonymous user which is default entered in the mysql.user table. I would suggest to 1.) delete this users with use mysql; delete from user where user=''; flush privileges; 2.) Try to reconnect via ssh tunnel. This should be denied now. 3.) alter the host-entry from the leg_shop user to 'localhost' and try connecting again. Regards, bh Absolutely right.

importing data
Hi, I have done an incredibly stupid thing. I have a server that suffered a bit of a failure. It wasn't a hard failure, but it was enough of one to have to rebuild the server from scratch. I was and am running mysql 4.0.22 on Gentoo with a 2.6 kernel. It rocks. However, The dumb thing that I did was fail to perform a mysqldump -a on the machine before I finished killing it. I rebuilt mysql from scratch. I then copied over the my.cnf files and I copied over the old /var/lib/mysql directory in tact. mysql wouldn't start at that point. I then deleted all the files in /var/lib/mysql and ran mysql_install_db. mysql starts automatically. If I create one of the databases and then put the files for that database from the old installation in place of the newly created ones, the database is recognized, but i get errors saying that the columns in the tables are not recognized.

To my mind, a boolean is something that can be used in a boolean
context. That is, if flag is a boolean, the following should work as
expected:
SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE flag; # rows with flag = TRUE
SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE NOT flag; # rows with flag = FALSE
If you have to compare the column's value to something, it isn't really
a boolean value.
MySQL, like most programming languages, treats 0 as FALSE and any other
number as TRUE. That means that boolean expressions are evaluated
numerically and compared to 0.
In a numeric context, ENUM columns return the value's position in the
list of allowed values, starting with 1. This means that with the
definition
someflag enum('TRUE','FALSE')
someflag evaluates as 1 when it is 'TRUE' and 2 when it is 'FALSE', both
of which are TRUE in boolean context. Hence, you cannot use someflag in
boolean context and get the expected results. In other words, someflag
looks like a boolean if you view the data, but doesn't behave as a
boolean in queries.
I don't quite know what Mark Warner means by abstract a tinyint(1) into
true or false, but I personally find using tinyint for boolean to be a
simple solution. I define someflag TINYINT, then set it to 0 for
FALSE and 1 (or any other number) for true. Of course, if you're not a
programmer it won't look like a boolean when viewing the data (is that
what you don't like, Mark?), but it will behave as one.
With tinyint you get some added flexibility, which may be an advantage,
depending on your application. For example, if I store the number of
children a person has in the tinyint kids, I can use kids in boolean
context:
SELECT * FROM persontable WHERE kids; #people who have children
SELECT * FROM persontable WHERE NOT kids; #people who don't
One more advantage of tinyints is that, with common programming
languages, they continue to function as booleans in your application.
Another option is to take advantage of the special error value in every
ENUM. If you insert a wrong value, mysql replaces it with '', which is
always 0 in numeric context. So, you could define
someflag ENUM ('TRUE', 'T');
If you insert 'FALSE' or 'F' (or 'false' or 'f') into someflag, it will
get the error value, 0 or ''. When you view the data, you will see
'TRUE' or 'T' for TRUE values and blanks for FALSE, and someflag will
behave as boolean in queries.
If your values are 'Y' and 'N', then, strictly speaking, you don't have
a boolean unless you've defined which is TRUE and which is FALSE.
Assuming you want to treat 'Y' as TRUE, you could define
yesflag ENUM ('YES', 'Y');
Inserting 'YES' or 'Y' (or 'yes' or 'y') will get you the corresponding
entries, which are TRUE in boolean context. Inserting 'NO' or 'N' (or
'no' or 'n') will get you blanks, which are FALSE in boolean context.

Hi,

well. The only annoying thing I can think of, from a programming
perspective, is MySQL's lack of a Boolean type - the manual says use
TINYINT(1) which works fine but is slightly annoying because of the
extra type conversion needed every time you use it. Apparently MySQL
will be implementing the Boolean type soon in accordance with whatever
SQL standard requires it. Quite why it still has not been implemented,
even though MySQL is into version 4, I have no idea - as a programmer I
find this a staggering omission but presumably they have their reasons
and perhaps most people are happy with TINYINT(1), but for clarity of
code TINYINT(1) is inferior to a Boolean type.
I hope this helps,

Hello.

The O/S is most likely to be Linux, although FreeBSD could possibly be

So far, it seems that MySQL, MaxDB, PostgreSQL, and Interbase/Firebird
are possible candidates.
Does anyone know why we should or should not use any of these? Does
anyone know of other possibilities?
Id very much appreciate hearing your comments and recommendations.
I have only recently started these evaluations. BTW, my own
background is from the Oracle DBA world.
MySQL is certainly popular and seems to have very good performance,
but I am concerned that the lack of Triggers, Stored Procedures,
User-Defined Functions, and Views (to a lesser degree ) will be a
disadvantage.
MaxDB appears to be more feature-rich and possibly more
industrial-strength. How does its performance and stability compare
to the others?
Many Thanks.
