Re: [PHP-DB] Optimising LIMITs
Hi Richard! Step 1 --- Is it right? 1. `threadid` value is unique. 2. `threadid` value is auto_increment. 3. if `threadid`(2) > `threadid`(1) => `created`(2) > `created`(1). You can do the following: 1. Create the index on two fields: (boardid, status) 2. ALTER TABLE `board` ORDER BY `threadid` DESC; Here is new query to fetch a block of records: SELECT * FROM `board` WHERE `boardid` = 1 AND `status` = "L" LIMIT 100,50 Step 2 The average size of row in your table is 128,000,000 / 190,000 ~= 675 bytes. Split your table in two tables, like: CREATE TABLE `boardinfo` ( `threadid` INT(4) UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT, PRIMARY KEY( `threadid` ), `boardid` INT(4) UNSIGNED, `status` ENUM( 'L', '' ), `created` TIMESTAMP ... (all fixed fields ) ) ALTER TABLE `boardinfo` CREATE INDEX `main` (`boardid,`status`) ALTER TABLE `boardinfo` ORDER BY `threadid` DESC CREATE TABLE `boarddata` ( `threadid_ref` INT(4) UNSIGNED, PRIMARY KEY ( `threadid_ref` ), `threaddata` LONGTEXT ) Here is your query after: SELECT * FROM `boardinfo` LEFT JOIN `boarddata` ON `threadid` = `threadid_ref` WHERE `boardid` = 1 AND `status` = "L" LIMIT 100,50 Sorry for my englist.

Well, it can't use a multi-column index if you are only matching on one column. If you have 3 indexes, (status, boardid), (status), and (boardid), it won't slow you down any on your queries. If one index is needed it is put into memory and stored there until another index bumps it, otherwise it resides on disk. I don't see it has too much of a performance dock, it may slow down inserts a little... I am not sure about this, but I think if you are going to have the 2 column indexes, they have to match up in both tables you're joining. You'll have to experiment with it a bit. you can say "select * from thread (index statusBoardCombinedIndex) where" to get the index you want. > > JM> If you want to optimize things further, I would run the query at midnight > JM> each morning, and instead of paging through the entire table, just page > JM> through that temporary table. > > Figured someone might suggest that - I will have to look into it. > Thanks. > > -- > Best regards, > Richard Davey > http://www.phpcommunity.org/wiki/296.html > > -- > PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You mean this will unset $v_dec["page_no"]?
This explains why at reload of index.php happens what happend.
But how to solve it? I _have_ to store some variables anywhere.
The session management at this point is rudimentary. I wrote it that
way, that it works for now, i.e. building the query pages. This is of
course not the final session management. At login I just write the
session_id() into the table without checking if the user already owns a
session. I left it to the end of work. So maybe it is not a problem of
login_status()?
function check_user($check_name, $check_passw)
{
$connect = @OCILogon("", "", "");
if(!$connect)
{
$err_oci = OCIError();
echo "(2) No connection - OCIError():
".$err_oci["message"];
echo "";
}
else
{
$sql_check = "SELECT count(*) AS count FROM user_web
WHERE user_name = '".$check_name."' AND user_pass =
'".$check_passw."'";
$stmt = OCIParse($connect, $sql_check);
OCIExecute($stmt);
while(OCIFetch($stmt))
{
$res_check = (int) OCIResult($stmt, "COUNT");
}
if(!$res_check == 1)
{
OCIFreeStatement($stmt);
OCILogOff($connect);
return(false);

{
$user_pid = (int) OCIResult($stmt, "USER_PID");
}
OCIFreeStatement($stmt);
OCILogOff($connect);
return($user_pid);
}
}
}
function login($user_pid, $session_id)
{
$connect = @OCILogon("", "", "");
if(!$connect)
{
$err_oci = OCIError();
echo "(2) No connection - OCIError():

echo "";
}
else
{
$sql_login = "UPDATE user_web SET user_session = '".$session_id."'

$stmt = OCIParse($connect, $sql_login);
OCIExecute($stmt);

[PHP-DB] Optimising LIMITs
Hi all, I have what is probably a quite standard question and would love to know how you would all approach this scenario: I have a table in a database that has approx. 190,000 records in it. The table is currently 128MB in size and I'm happy that it is well constructed with no data duplication and sensible indexes. I'm using MySQL 3.28.58. and my question is about querying this volume of data efficiently. The table holds forum threads (several years worth) so a common query running on the table is to bring back the top 50 or 100 threads from a board within the forum. To do this I'm using a LIMIT on my query and for the paging through the data (i.e. the first 100 threads, the next 100, etc) I use the LIMIT n,x syntax. Threads are sorted by date (most recent to the top). This is fine and it works well but I'm concerned it's not the most efficient way to do this because the use of LIMIT is causing the whole table to be scanned each time. Here is a typical (simplified) query: SELECT * FROM thread WHERE thread.status='L' AND thread.boardid=1 ORDER BY created DESC LIMIT 100,50 This takes over 1.02 seconds to process. Running an EXPLAIN on my query shows that it's using one key (boardid), but in the Extra field it shows it is having to use a filesort on the data. 5701 rows were used in order to bring back the final 50 - that's every single thread for this board. What I'm trying to figure out is a more efficient way of selecting a block of 50 or 100 records from any point in my table without MySQL needing to sort/check them all first. One thought I did have was that the Primary Key on my table is called threadid - and I thought that instead of bring back the data in my original query, I could collect nothing but the thread IDs and then use a separate query that does something like: "SELECT * FROM thread WHERE threadid IN (...)" (where ... = all of the IDs previously selected). Would the fact that threadid is my primary key make the original LIMIT/sort faster? Any thoughts appreciated. -- Best regards, Richard Davey http://www.phpcommunity.org/wiki/296.html -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Thanks Davey,
but is $page_no not set every time (see below) or did you mean that I
must rather use $v_dec["page_no"] in the code?
if(!isset($page_no))
{
$page_no = "login";
}
$page_no is set to "login"
if(!(login_status($session_id)) == 1)
{
$page_no = "login";
}
$page_no is set to "login"
if(($user_pid != false) && (login_status($user_pid) == false))
{
login($user_pid, $session_id);
$res_login = 1;
$page_no = "start_select";
If login ok then $page_no is set to "start_select".
if(!($page_no == "login"))
switch {

RE: [PHP-DB] my code
For one thing, your column name Long is invalid. It's a reserved keyword in
MySQL. Either enclose it in backticks or change the name of the column.
If you want to see what the db is reporting, do this:
$result = mysql_query($query)
or die(mysql_error())
And see what the database tells you.

RE: [PHP-DB] Is there a limit to columns in a mysql table
1. What type of error is being returned by the database when your INSERT fails? 2. Does the INSERT work from the command line interface for your database? 3.

You don't check $v_dec in your manage.php script though, you check to
see if $page_no is set which it never will be, because no-where do you
give it a value.

[PHP-DB] "global" variables
Hi,
I build a small web interface to a database.
I include into the index.php the and a :
#index.php
In I include the and the
and then decide on the status of a variable $page_no which further
has to be included to perfom the query jobs:
#manage.php
if(!isset($page_no))
{
$page_no = "login";
}
if(!(login_status($session_id)) == 1)
{
$page_no = "login";
}
// user logged in?
if(!($page_no == "login"))
{
include('head.php');
}
else
{
if(isset($_POST['login']))
{
if(!($_POST['user'] == "") && !($_POST['passw'] ==""))
{
$user_pid = check_user($_POST['user'], $_POST['passw']);
if(($user_pid != false) && (login_status($user_pid) == false))
{
login($user_pid, $session_id);
$res_login = 1;
$page_no = "start_select";
}
else
.
.
.
if($res_login == 0)
{
include('b_login.php');
}
}
if($page_no == "start_select")
{
if(isset($_POST['b_start_select']))
{
if(!($_POST['sources'] == ""))
{
switch($_POST['sources'])
{
case "wells": $page_no = "wells";
break;
case "springs": $page_no = "springs";
break;
case "precipitation": $page_no = "precipitation";
break;
case "surface": $page_no = "surface";
break;
case "used": $page_no = "used";
break;
default: $page_no = "start_select";
}
}
}
}
if(!($page_no == "login"))
{
switch($page_no)
{
case "start_select": include('b_start_select.php');
break;
case "wells": include('b_wells.php');
break;
case "springs": include('b_springs.php');
break;
case "precipitation": include('b_precipitation.php');
break;
case "surface": include('b_surface.php');
break;
case "used": include('b_used.php');
break;
default: echo "If you see this side, please mail to.;
}
include('fuss.php');
}
?>
I declared the $page_no in my
#variables.php as
$v_dec["page_no"] = $page_no.
Now I have the problem that after login and switching to
b_start_select.php still $page_no="start_select", because I can print it
to this page:
echo $page_no gives: start_select
but
echo $v_dec["page_no"] prints nothing
Second problem: When I pass my selection through the form on the
b_start_select.php (form action = "index.php") $page_no again becomes
unset. That means I fall back to the login page.
Any suggestions? How in general do you this.
Thank you,
Torsten

Re: [PHP-DB] plain-text file (.txt) to mysql database
Hi, So would I need to edit anything in my .txt file? Could you show me an example on what you mean by: you can specify which columns of your text file goes to what DB column. Because my text file has first , last , title seperated by a space and a new entry is seperated by a enter. (new line) I took a look at www.mysql.com and had a read on 'LOAD DATA' but am not 100% sure on how it works with my sort of .txt file setup. If you could show me an example that worked with my .txt file that would be great, or would I need to edit my .txt file somewhat? Sorry about this, never used a .txt file for use of mysql before but since I need to do alot of entries at once it would be the easiest way to do it.

G'day, mate, With MySQL LOAD statement, you can specify which columns of your text file goes to what DB column.

Re: [PHP-DB] plain-text file (.txt) to mysql database
I know this might sound a little bad, but i would use Perl or an editor that supports regulars expresions to convert the data into insert statements and after that i would use a database administration tool (ex. myCC) to insert the data, you could put some statements before doing the inserts to disable foreign key checks and others things to speed up the process, but in your case i think this would have no effect in the speed. - Original Message - From: "JeRRy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, March 01, 2004 9:08 AM Subject: [PHP-DB] plain-text file (.txt) to mysql database > Hi, > > Quick question, does anyone know of a program/site > that could do the following: > > I have a .txt file written in notepad. > > Bob Someone Mr > > Now I have a db with the fields: > > First Last Title > > Now the .txt file looks something like this: > > Bob Someone Mr > Susan Taylor Miss > Andrea Nothing Ms > ... > > Now I want to use a Program/site to put the names in > the right field.

[PHP-DB] plain-text file (.txt) to mysql database
Hi, Quick question, does anyone know of a program/site that could do the following: I have a .txt file written in notepad. Bob Someone Mr Now I have a db with the fields: First Last Title Now the .txt file looks something like this: Bob Someone Mr Susan Taylor Miss Andrea Nothing Ms ... Now I want to use a Program/site to put the names in the right field. So each field is seperated by a space as shown above. I have about 1000 entries to put in and don't think doing each query per line is going to be a 5 min job, any suggestions? Thanks! Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo!
