Graphical data visualization for RDBMS/SQL schema?

2002-12-05 Thread Daevid Vincent
I'm looking for something that will take mySQL databases and show me graphically how the tables all relate to each other. At the very least, show me boxes with the schema in each one and allow me to draw lines as I see fit (or use the foreign keys of InnoDB tables). This could then be printed to

I'm having a strange problem connecting via remote to mySQL. This is an internal LAN, so there should be no firewall issues. I'm running RedHat 8.0, but I've installed the latest mySQL rpms which I thought were statically linked to avoid the earlier problem of this same nature. The peculiar thing

Well, it seems there are some glitches with and snags and other fun stuff to deal with when doing a straight RedHat 8.0 install. It turns out you have to edit your /etc/php.ini and uncomment out the extension=mysql.so line for starters. It also helps to set short_open_tag = On. Another fun thing

Benefits of using ENUM vs. a TINYINT mask?

Assume my db will have millions of records and frequent selects. If I plan on have a field that can be one of multiple states (A, B, C or All), is it better to store as ENUM or TINYINT (as a mask, such that A = 1, B = 2, C = 3 and if I know that, then All = 6, and none = 0). I'm only talking

Well, you could have the Canadian admin add your pakistan IP address/host to the mysql database in the hosts table, along with the proper user and db I'm sure. Then you can use any 3rd party mySQL client to connect and do whatever you want. Something I just did recently is to install phpMyAdmin
