RE: LIMIT

SQL Server will allow you to limit a SELECT to the first n rows, but not (to my knowledge) to skip a number of rows before returning the desired rows. The mechanism used is SET ROWCOUNT (6.5 and 7.0) or TOP (7.0). The difference is that SET ROWCOUNT limits the output rows before applying an OR

[Fwd: Replication non working with Innobase]

2001-04-19 Thread Heikki Tuuri
Nico, it came to my mind that possibly 'load table from master' uses LOCK TABLES to speed up processing in the slave. In 3.23.36 there was a bug with LOCK TABLES in connection with InnoDB (named the Wisconsin bug). It might help if you download and compile the new 3.23.37 from the MySQL website.
