Re: restarting MySQL on OS X
alex, chuck a copy of phpMyAdmin onto the machine. edit the phpMyAdmin configuration file to your username and password and load it up on the loopback address. you should find a button saying 'reload mysql' on the page. phpMyAdmin rules!!! cheers, jake on 21/5/02 1:43 pm, Alex Pilson at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I was wondering if anyone knew the proper way to restart MySQL on OS X?

Re: mysql/php on Win2000
i've got IIS (so i can do ASP), apache, php, mysql and darwin streaming server all running on a w2k box that i use for web dev. i've set the services to start manually and depending on what i'm doing for the day i'll start them up individually. all works, it's fast and rarely give me hassle - redhat on the overhand has been a nightmare to set up but then again, i'm only starting out on it... the main thing is windows offers so many other web technologies (plugin 'n stuff) that i need it! bloody microsoft! cheers, jake on 25/3/02 18:33, Andrew Hazen at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, if you think that IIS and Apache are going to have problems co-habitating then, yes, please tell me which services to kill.

Re: MySQL, MyODBC and MS Access
hello mark, been doing this quite a bit recently but i cheat a bit... 1st step is to export the table from access as a text file - delimited by comma's. if you load up phpMyAdmin (available at http://www.phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin/), create your database and then mimic the table set up from access, you can then use the 'Insert textfiles into table' function to load all the information. a bit time consuming but it does work! phpMyAdmin is wicked as well hope this helps, jake I have a project where I may need to connect an MS ACCESS db and MySQL. I have read some pretty good documentation and know that is possible to take an existing Access db and export it to MYSQL. I have a few questions and wondered if someone might offer some insight. 1. Where must the Access db reside in order to talk with MySQL? 2. After the import to MySQL, if I insert new data into MySQL will the Access db be updated as well? I am looking for a way to access live MS Access data from the web. Obviously, I could connect directly to the Access db itself but with limited connections, I would think it would be hard to share the data . My thought was when someone updated the Access db, the data is then exported to MySQL. I then could use php, JSP or whatever to access the data from the web without having to worry about odbc connections. Am I way off here? Any help is appreciated. thanks Mark - 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: OSX and Virtual Hosting set-up?
hello mike, i've got a similar set-up on my g4 - only i'm not quite at the hosting point yet. the way i think i would go about it is create a database per domain and use phpmyadmin (saves using the command line!) to grant 'user' permissions to each domain name. this 'user' would be able to do a full range of tasks with the database. i'd then also set-up 'web' permissions so that hosts connecting in can select, insert, delete and update rows in the tables - that way the php scripts can talk to the database. hope this helps! cheers, jake p.s. phpmyadmin is excellent! i use it all the time - it at: http://www.phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin/ on 19/3/02 11:28, Mike Yrabedra at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all, I am new to the list and have a quick question (I'm sure it won't be my last).

How do I set up Mysql so that every virtual host has their own set of databases (or tables) that only they can access? I don't want one client able to access another client's records. Let's just say we have 3 domains. How would they be setup using mysql? domain1, domain2 and domain 3 Is mysql just one big database and everyone on the server uses it?

Re: mysql on redhat instalation problem
hello edna and brian, your life savers! thank you for getting back to me. i've done the chown and chmod which went well! then i typed: mysql_install_db this then said 'installing all prepared tables' and a message saying: /usr/sbin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete after that the default kind of welcome screen (that i've seen before when i installed mysql on a win2000 pc) came up reminding me to set root passwords ect. i tried this and no joy... the default stuff seems to have gone in and when the machine boots up it does say 'starting xsf' and then goes on about starting the mysql daemon using /var/lib/mysql ect ect i also tried the: service mysqld start and get a message saying: mysqld: unrecognised service have i missed something again? thank you for any help you can chuck my way! many thanks, jake p.s. has anyone ever found a complete tutorial on the web for installing redhat, php and mysql? i've searched and found stuff that seems to bear no relation to what i'm trying to do! actually, once i get this up and running, i'm seriously thinking of setting up a site that has this kind of thing on it - i've been using http://www.entropy.ch to help me with php and mysql on mac osX and it's first class! i cant believe theres not one for redhat on 26/2/02 18:08, Edna Walton at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Well, you shouldn't have to do anything (much). RedHat has set it all up for you, albeit not in any place you would expect it if you read the manual. RH creates a user mysql and sets up the tables. They are in the directory /var/lib/mysql. However, for some reason RH has left root as the owner of all this, so you have to change it: chown -R mysql /var/lib/mysql and also give mysql permission to write to it. Not being very security conscious on my standalone machine, I just did chmod -R 755 /var/lib/mysql but you may wish to be more stringent. To start the daemon under RH, the command is service mysqld start (note the d) rather than safe_mysqld or whatever. Hope this helps.

Re: Couldn't select database
hey bob,
thanks for getting back to me - here's the full set up
i have a pc running windows98, apache, php and mysql. it sits on our
ethernet network and i connect to it via my mac using the ip address i have
set up in the network control panel on the pc. i use the mac for building
and the pc for web serving/ testing.
first error to report: when i start up from the command line, change into
the mysql/bin directory and type:
mysqld --standalone
i get the error 'can't initialise InnoDB as 'innodb_data_file_path' is not
set'. however, this doesn't seem to effect the general running of mysql.
i created a data base with the mysqladmin programme called 'test'. i then
create a host, user and password by typing the following at the mysql
prompt:
use mysql
insert into user (host, user, password) values ('192.168.254.204', 'jake',
password('twentyeight');
i then exited and used the mysqladmin to flush-privileges and tried to
connect to the database using a simple php page which checks the connection
and then use's it to connect to the test database. this all works.
then i created a 2nd database called 'guest' to start developing a guestbook
mysql backend with a php front end.
when i try to connect to this using the same host, user, password my php
test script seems to connect and cant find or connect to the database.
from what i have read and the responses i have had, it seems you have to
re-enable the host, user and password for the new databases you create but
the code that people are kindly offering up seems to have different commands
in it and to be truthful my skills are not advanced enough to full
understand how to enter it correctly.
any more info that people can chuck my way would be great.
cheers,
jake

Hi Jake,
Your problem appears similar to a problem I had but...
you aren't providing quite enough information..
Are you working as a user on the same local host or
are connecting across a network?
To eliminate a MySQL problem ( so you can concentrate
your efforts on PHP code) try to connect directly from
the command line with MySQL as follows..
#root$ mysql yourdatabasename -h hostname -u username -p password
You can eliminate -h and -p if your on the same machine without
password.
See if this will connect..
