Re: MySQL on Linux
Well I guess it depends on what is meant by Default. I was using RH8 and had no such issues, even with RH7... I think it's important to note the filesystem chosen can make a huge difference. as of RH8 and onward I'd suggest EXT3, especially for Peter's issue of possible corruption - because it is a fully journalling filesystem. of course, a filesystem cannot (and will not) overcome issues with the software or OS itself. It's always best to use the latest stable Mysql (4.0.18 as of last I checked), and don't always upgrade just because. too many admins will upgrade just because the latest thing is out, if it's working, stable, etc, leave it alone. don't fix it if it aint broke. the point is, choosing the right options during install. myself, I never had an issue with the defaults, even back as far as RH7, using files larger than 2gigs with mysql. perhaps because I always choose the best file system available at the time. I chose journalling as soon as it was available, things like ReiserFS come to mind. for me, large files was always the default, never had to choose it manually or change any settings. oh well... Dan.

nice flame! :) btw- Doesnt exist in out-of-the-box Linux distros, or any distro you can currently download. or any distro you could download (or buy) over the last few years. it doesnt occur in vanilla distributions or any other retail, commercial, or otherwise distribution... well maybe Suse, since I stopped looking at it once it went commercial. but SUSE is NOT the linux standard. Neither are any of them actually. the most popular would have been Red Hat, which doesn't have this limit you speak of, even plain vanilla install (no twiddling needed). contrary to your statement, SUSE is not the bar by which other linux's are measured. Did you even read that document you're referring to? I think you should at least READ it before speaking up on stuff you know nothing about. Look at it, it refers to linux kernel 2.4.0-test7, not even a release kernel. and glibc 2.1 and all the way back to SUSE 7.0 running the 2.2 kernel! It also refers to Red Hat 6.2, I mean, come on man... taking a document like that, which has been sparsely updated to reflect new versions of Linux and just says now has support for those versions is hardly a decent reference... any current linux in any format will support large files out of the box as they say. so yes, I know what I'm talking about, thanks. sheesh.

Sorry, didn't mean to sound flameish. Just wanted to point out that 32 bit systems have limitations. 2^32 = 4 billion that's the max. Addressing more space than that requires a bit of black magic.

RE: mysql on Linux
Today I migrated my system to RH7.1. I had been running mysql on Mandrake 7.2 but I wanted to use the newer versions which require kernel 2.4.x. I experienced exactly the same problems as you with the RPM of mysql which came with the RH distro. I looked at everything and then some that had been pointed out in this thread and was having equally poor results. No amount of fiddling caused the symptoms to change in the slightest. I solved the problem by downloading the 3.23.49a RPM from mysql.com and installing that. First time I tried the new version, it worked exactly like it is supposed to. I was both surprised and pleased with this outcome. Fixes for such nasty problems aren't supposed to be so easy. 8-) I'm not going to try to guess what the exact problem is. I'm just letting you know how I resolved it.

Re: mysql on Linux
No need to get all snarky. People are confused because there's a whole section in the manual that covers the installation, step-by-step, with no cryptic mumbo jumbo. This is at http://www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/manual_Installing.html#Linux-RPM and basically tells you to download the RPM and then install it using rpm -i. Alternatively, if you have a .tar.gz file, you can follow the install directions given therein. We _CANNOT_ help you further without you telling us what part of the install you are having problems with. The step-by-step instructions are available as people have pointed out. So what are you asking for? On Tuesday 05 March 2002 4:23 pm, Intrex wrote: Not to be sarcastic, but Pointing us all to ducumentation I HAVE READ 100 TIMES is NO help.

Hello! I'm in the process of upgrading my Linux-server (currently a dual P2-400MHz), and have been thinking about getting a system with dual Athlons (maybe 2x Athlon MP 1800+). Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with a dual Athlon system with Linux running MySQL 3.23.x, and maybe Apache under HEAVY load? Since the Athlon MP's haven't been around for very long, I'm a bit concerned about the stability under heavy load on the 2.4 kernel... So please, if you have a success- or disaster-story I'd like to know! :) I'm also very interested in what mainboard you are using for the Athlons, and what Linux-kernel version you're running...

RE: MySQL on Linux 2.4 question
Amazing! I've not had a chance to upgrade a server to 2.4 yet, though I've long imagined that the results would be similar. I imagine the biggest performance boost you received is due to the built-in multi-threading that the 2.4 kernel enjoys which is currently lacking in the 2.2 kernel. Linux is becoming more robust all the time along with a pretty hard kernel. It's come a long way in a short time. Linux is developing along a more solid path than Windoze. Even the big boys are turning to open source to handle the high-traffic/high-availability jobs. Yahoo saved somewhere around 17 million dollars by switching needed infrastructure over to linux/open source. I just read today that MySQL is their big database that handles 800 transactions a second for their stock quotes and financial handlings. In the year that M$ wants to rent the OS to you, linux will only continue to grow in it's usage as the desktop gets more friendly and the applications are developed to make people want to use linux instead of windoze.

Re: MySQL on Linux 2.4 question
Walt, Yup, we use Innodb with 3.23.46 on Linux 2.4.2. I can't tell you whether things are better than they were on 2.2 kernels but we're updating tables just about that quickly I'd say. Largest table we have is a log table which has 50 million rows in it so far. Thanks to Innodb row locking, we've significantly improved insert versus select query performance. I've heard (I think I read this in a magazine) that prior to 2.4.4 kernel, there are some virtual memory issues with Mysql, so I'd be interesetd to know what kernel version you have... memory management changed a lot between 2.2 and 2.4, so that would probably account for the changes you're seeing.

Re: MySQL on Linux 2.4 question
Walt, a possible reason is that fsync is much faster in Linux-2.4 than in 2.2. Check that the combined size of your log files is 50 % - 100% of the buffer pool size. Small log files cause more disk i/o and more fsyncs. The kernel 2.4.4-SMP-64GB has been very stable on our 2-way computer. Somewhere in about version 2.4.10 Linus changed the virtual memory. I am not sure how stable kernels 2.4.10 - .17 are, but at least some people are running them with success. 2.5.1 seems to be unstable. Regards, Heikki .

Following the advice of 2.6.1.4 Linux Alpha Notes at: http://www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/manual_Installing.html#Li nux-Alpha I installed the Compaq Linux Alpha compiler (ccc and cxx) and built the latest MySQL source with configure flags: CC=ccc CFLAGS=-fast CXX=cxx CXXFLAGS=-fast -noexceptions -nortti ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --disable-shared --with-extra-charsets =complex --enable-thread-safe-client --with-mysqld-ldflags=-non_shared --wit h-client-ldflags=-non_shared Yay, it works!

I find it easier to download direct from the sourceforge mirror than to navigate through the new download system on mysql.com. I hate it when I wget an html file instead of the tarball I'm seeking. Ahh, OK. Didn't know about the SourceForge site. I've always just used the 'home' site.

Re: mysql on linux redhat v.7

This is telling you that you have mysql 3.23.22-6 installed, and that you're replacing files that it needs. Problem might be solved using the update switch as I listed above to do the update. i then did rpm -e mysql Redhat's packages are rarely named just the application name. You can see what the exact package name is by issuing the following command: rpm -qa|grep -i mysql This will report back to you any packages containing the word mysql (upper or lower case) in the package name. Then you rpm -e full-package-name to uninstall it. which produced the output: error. package mysql is not installed See above for more details. Hope this helps.
