Japanese display problem with mysql on Linux
Hi folks I wrote an application which uses japanese characters. I can display japanese characters, fetching from a mysql database on my WindowsXP machine. I moved the same to a Linux machine and could see only junk characters. Any suggestions? MySQL version 4.0.13 on Win XP Japanese MySQL version 4.0.14 on Linux English But the charset is set to latin1 on both installation. I used the mysql binary distribution. Do I need to change this. If so how?

Re: language charset
Egor As you said I have set the default-character-set = sjis But I need few clarfications for my strange problems I am using mysql 4.0.3-beta(innodb) on windows NT 4.0 (SP6) machine 1. Under \MYSQL_HOME\SHARE\CHARSETS, there is no config file for sjis like the ones for cp1251, german1 etc. Will this affect the charset structure for japanese 2. Secondly I created a table CREATE TABLE PLOT_DB( plotname VARCHAR(5) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ) TYPE = INNODB ; When I insert japanese alphabets of size 1 from a text file, it throws error-- primary key violation. ( the characters I am inserting are unique) When I removed PRIMARY KEY constraint, they are inserted without any error 3. But When I use select * from plot_db, the characters are not properly displayed and are masked. But when the size is reduced to 1 ( VARCHAR(1) ), they are displayed properly In DB tools the characters are displayed followed by a dot mark. when the size is VARCHAR(5). They are displayed properly when the VARCHAR(1), that is the exact size of the characters. 4. When I load the characters back to a text file, the same distortion is found. How can I rectify these errors ? My problem is this happens exactly when the varchar size, I am declaring exceeds the actual size of the characters I am inserting. That too only for certain characters. 5. How MySQL handles the data transfer? Is it binary mode or ASCII mode? regards - Original Message - From: "Egor Egorov" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 15, 2002 7:51 PM Subject: re: language charset kayamboo, Tuesday, October 15, 2002, 12:31:39 PM, you wrote: k I am so far using japanese characters with mysql without any problem. k But today when I try to insert some japanese characters, only one character k get truncated to a .

Toby,
If I understand correctly you want to perform two distinct actions:
1. Convert Microsoft Office Word .doc files into .pdf
2. Store those pdf's in MySQL.
You should look into (via google.com) some doc to pdf converters. An
example
is this com object:
http://www.convertzone.com/doc2pdfcom/help.htm#HowtoBuy,
it costs $219 and converts .doc to .pdf.
If you can convert the .doc's into .html files, you might be able to get
away with using Adobe's free email converter service.
Email the HTML document to [EMAIL PROTECTED], wait an hour or so, and
you'll find a pdf version in your inbox.
(There's also a [EMAIL PROTECTED] address if you dont want to use html,
but
I think you wanted to keep formatting).
Once you have the document in PDF, it's a relatively trivial action to
store
the documents in your MySQL database.
HTH,
William.

I think if you decide to store in the blob,
whatever it is, a pdf or jpeg or bmp, it is going to be in binary
format.
While you need to display it back, just convert them back to
whatever format
you like.
Else there is always the choice of just storing the path in your
database.
By the way, which language you are using to write your applications.
If it is delphi, I can send you some sample code

hi,
2 ways to do this:
a) don't store the file actually in the db but store the path to
it.
b)use the function LOAD_FILE(filename) to get the contents of
a file as a
string value and store as a blob.
decide which to use depending on how many pics you have
cheers

Re: Updating blob from command line
Paul,
I checked for InnoDb and this have to work with MyIsam also.
But also decide your size. If your size exceeds the limit, it get truncated
and u never come to know during insert. so you can go for mediumblob if it
exceeds the blob size. Check for the size restrictions in the manual.

Dear George,
I use to have problems with Greek Chars and after hundreds of hours of
testing i can assure you that the only solution is to compile Mysql using
as default char-set the Greek char-set.
Thus if your are using mysql for Linux you have to add to the .configure
parameters the following:(`--with-charset=greek' ,
'--with-extra-charset=greek').
Also if you have problems viewing greek characters from within a PHP page
maybe you have to define the correct encoding for the specific page.

Re: installing mysql together with application
It is obvious, even in windows you have to set the configuration files atleast. It is the privilege of the user to install the stuff anywhere in his computer and so he has to change the .inf or .cnf accordingly Why not you try onething called the embedded mysql. If you just want to go with your way, better make one more program in java to get the installation directory as input from the user and accordingly change the configuration files and put them in winnt/ or windows/ regards - Original Message - From: Martijn van Iersel [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 25, 2002 4:45 PM Subject: installing mysql together with application Hello I want to distribute my java database application together with mysql, and I want to make it as easy as possible. Right now a new user has to: - download and install mysql - run the mysql server with mysqld --standalone or a similar command - download my program and run it. To make this easier for the user, I tried to zip mysql together with my program (the whole c:\mysql directory except the data directory), and to issue the mysqld --standalone command each time the user starts my program, but it doesn't work (it would be too easy, wouldn't it?). When I try that, see below for the errors that appear in mysql.err: I want my program in a single zip file, and that you only have to unzip it, type setup and then run to make it work. Is there a better way to achieve this? It only has to work under Windows (I am assuming here that linux users are smart enough to set up mysql by themselves) thanks in advance Martijn van Iersel Here are the errors I get: Cannot initialize InnoDB as 'innodb_data_file_path' is not set.

Re: Japanese Charset
Hello friend I am not an expert in mysql and I am also a newbie But As for I think, mysql has nothing to do with this problem. I am using mysql with jsp to store and retrieve japanese characters. My O/S is also japanese WindowsNT4.0SP6a. Despite I get errors in my browser in the beginning.So I wrote a small bean component. This component will read the characters(Shift_JIS , a,b or any) and convert into (8859_1) and put it into the database While retrieving the data, I will do the reverse. Also make sure the right charset is set in your html page My knowledge in asp is a big zero. So if you are using jsp, I can send you the bean. Best of luck - Original Message - From: Dawn Friedland [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Joel Rees [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Shashank Tripathi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 4:54 PM Subject: RE: Japanese Charset Here's a brief summary of where we are: I trying to store Japanese text (Shift_Jis) in MySQL and view it from a web page. The content is provided to me in Word format. I convert it to plain text, copy/paste into a web form in an ASP-based CMS on a Windows box. When viewed from a web page, seemingly random characters are morphed into other characters. The majority of the database contains rows in Latin. MySQL supports Japanese and Latin in the same table. Other people are able to do this without the morphing problem. My Regional Language settings in Windows are set to to Shift_Jis in order to view Shift_Jis characters in notepad and the DOS prompt. If I circumvent the CMS and copy/paste from notepad directly to MySQL in the DOS Prompt, the results are the same (although fewer characters are broken when viewed through DOS). For a good explanation visit this problem's web site: http://commworks01.barklouder.com/japan/press/broken_chars.asp I conclude that one of two things may be happening: 1. Characters are being corrupted by virtue of the fact that their source of origination were copied from Word, despite the conversion to plain text. (At this point I do not have a plain text file with content typed directly into notepadi.e. Word circumvented. I am at the mercy of the client's PR department.) 2. Characters are being corrupted by MySQL. If option 1 were true, then why do the characters show up fine when in a static HTML document? (see below). In Response to Joel Rees: I checked the text you gave me, and I found what's getting clobbered. It's the latter half of characters like the katakana 'so'. Although the byte that is getting walked on here is 0x5c, this is _not_ the escape character. It is preceded (in the case of katakana 'so') by a byte of 0x83. The entire character is '0x835c', and the 0x5c is being treated as if it were a backslash. There are other characters that will get hit by this, by the way. Question 1: It seems like a lot more characters are getting hit than just '0x835c'. How do I map the 0x835c to what the character looks like? I don't know what 0x835c is. Question 2: How do I handle the character escape mechanism correctly according to MySQL? - 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?

filter;sql;query
Hello folks
Can anyone pls give some useful tips for these questions
1.I have to store some images in the db. Each image size is around 800kb to
900kb(almost 1 mb). Will it affect the performance. I am using mediumblob
for this.
2.Secondly, if I am storing for eg.
this is my_table
id pic
varchar(50)mediumblob
suppose if i insert 3 rows like
insert into my_table('', load_file('c:/images/a.jpeg')) ;
insert into my_table('', load_file('c:/images/b.bmp')) ;
insert into my_table('', load_file('c:/images/c.gif')) ;
is there any way of knowing the
1. file type eg. jpeg, bmp, gif
2. name of the file inserted. eg. a,b,c
3. Thirdly
does mysql treat jpeg and jpg formats differently?
4.Is there any reason to fear, the blob data get corrupted while inserting
or selecting ?
for eg. if I issue a statement like this from the command prompt
select * from my_table ;
thanks for any suggestions ?

Re: table creation error with innodb/ sql,query
Thanks a lot Chris It worked for me. But I refered somewhere , that using excessive index will eat up resources. So is it mandatory to use index even if I am not using them for something like search? regards Kayamboo Suresh - Original Message - From: "Chris Tucker" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "kayamboo" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 17, 2002 5:35 PM Subject: Re: table creation error with innodb/ sql,query InnoDB requires that you have an index on both ends of a foreign key constraint. Thus, you need to index the "type" field of the person table. Change your create statement to: CREATE TABLE person( name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, type VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, dob DATE, INDEX (type), FOREIGN KEY(type) REFERENCES relation(type) ON DELETE CASCADE ) TYPE = INNODB ; And you should have no problems (note that if "type" was not the primary key on the "relation" table you would also have to explicitly declare an index for that column).
