MySql - Ultradev
Subject: MySql - Ultradev From: David Raza Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2000 15:55:48 - I was wondering if anyone has managed to use Dreamweaver Ultradev with a MySQL Database? I've been getting started with UltraDev through ColdFusion to mySQL this week. I'm stuck at the moment, trying to get an 'insert record' working. I was stuck yesterday as well, getting a search to work, and the reason it wasn't working was that UltraDev didn't put some quotes into the SQL statement where it should have. Had to put them in by hand, and then it worked fine.

mysqldump core dumping mysql
Hi! I'm having core dumps in mysql 3.23.28 ( BSD 4.2 ) during mysqldump. I've tried different options, now I'm currently running: mysqldump -F -l -q -O max_allowed_packet=16777216 db but sometimes mysql core dumps. Thanks for any idea!
MySQL CAPI and Multiple connections
Hi,
I'm building a C API MySQL client.
I need to connect to different dbs at the same time. My code is
(approximately):
//
MYSQL mysql, *conn1, *conn2;
mysql_init(mysql)
conn1 = mysql_real_connect(mysq, ip1, user1, pass1, db1, 0, NULL, 0)
printf("conn1 = %d", conn1);
conn2 = mysql_real_connect(mysq, ip2, user2, pass2, db2, 0, NULL, 0)
printf("conn2 = %d", conn1);
conn3 = mysql_real_connect(mysq, ip3, user3, pass3, db3, 0, NULL, 0)
printf("conn3 = %d", conn3);
// ... use conn1
// ... use conn2
// ... use conn3
mysql_close(conn1);
mysql_close(conn2);
mysql_close(conn3);
mysql_close(mysql);
//
I see always that (conn1 == conn2 == conn3), so the prevuoius connection
are overwritten.
Could you give some explanation about this?
How can I mantain different connections on different db (or different
ip, user, etc)?
Thanks

Re: query much slower when function used...?
okay, with gdb i can see that this column becomes a blob (thereby not allowing heap tables to be used - which has got to be costing me speed), is there any function i can use to 'cast' this column to a fixed length? hrm, apparently LEFT(SUBSTRING(MAX(CONCAT())), N) will do that for me... sorry for thinking out loud ;-) ahh, this works generically for the 'create table' portion of it, but in order to prevent the blob from being in the tmp table, this really needs to be SUBSTRING(MAX(LEFT(CONCAT(),N))) because the contents of MAX() wind up in the tmp table. and N = 255 (with the potential truncation of data realized as a possibility) to avoid blobishness. or, i could redesign my tables so that the total length of the columns/constants used in CONCAT() was = 255... - 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?

Re: index corruption and mysqld crash
Thank you for your help but there is no cron job that kills the process. I also got an answer that was not CC'd to the list that suggested me to install 3.23. I have installed 3.23 (mysqld Ver 3.23.30-gamma for pc-linux-gnu on i686) today since I had a lot of users complaining and could not spend time investigating the problem. In order to be sure of data integrity, I made a mysqldump with 3.22, removed 3.22, installed 3.23, created a new database from mysqldump result and ran myisamchk before restarting our web server (there was no corrupt data at that time). After 2 hours of MySQL running with an average of 250 requests/s without crashing (that's the good news ;), I shut down MySQL and ran myisamchk, one of the table was corrupt ! The message from myisamchk was: Checking MyISAM file: message.MYI Data records: 896368 Deleted blocks: 0 - check file-size - check key delete-chain - check record delete-chain - check index reference - check data record references index: 1 - check data record references index: 2 /usr/bin/myisamchk: error: Key 2 doesn't point at same records that key 1 - check record links /usr/bin/myisamchk: error: Keypointers and record positions doesn't match MyISAM-table '/msqldb/mysql/rencontre/message.MYI' is corrupted Fix it using switch "-r" or "-o" So, since installing a new version is not an option anymore, let me ask again : Is it possible to run myisamchk while mysqld is running ? In this case, is it enough to remove --skip-locking option (set in safe_mysqld) or should I also add --enable-locking ? Also, what will be the impact on performance with this option ? Does anybody have any suggestion on where I could look in order to find what is causing these corruptions ?

Pre-installed MySQL from Redhat 7.0
Fellow travelers, I'm a MySQL debutant. I have no experience with it (other than not being able to get it to work on my Dell PowerEdge 1400 server running RedHat Linux 7.0). Is the RedHat Linux 7.0 distribution of MySQL a satisfactory or difficult one to use. Is it a good idea to buy a distribution from a concern like Abriasoft, in order to get a more useful or complete distribution of the software plus support. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Re: Locking records
MySQL doesn't have built in row-level locking, but they are chaning that. The best thing to do, for now, is to have a record_locked column, and set it to 1 if the record is in use. To lock the record, you would run a query like update table_name set record_locked = 1 where id = ??? and record_locked = 0 'id' is an auto increment column, so each row has a unique id. If the record is locked, the query will return 0 rows affected, and you wait a while. If it is not yet locked, and the query changes it, it will return 1 row affected, and you now know you have a lock on it. Another note. Something to experiment with, but I'm not sure this is guarenteed behavior, so tread carefully; this was an accidental discovery. This query should also work: update table_name set record_locked = 1 where id = ??? If the record_locked column is already 1, it won't set it to one again, so you might not need the 'and record locked = 0' part of the query, but I'd use it to be safe. Hope that helps. j- k- On Friday 12 January 2001 05:34, Martin Thoma wrote: Hello ! I want to make something like: There is one server and seval clients, which all access the same database.

Re: I need to tell MySQL that i have other database
Did you use mysqldump to save your databases? It is *highly* recommended that you do that instead of just copying the database files over. This way, you can just dump all the data back in and mysql will take care of everything :) If not, you can tell mysqld where to look for its databases: -h, --datadir=pathPath to the database root Atle On Fri, 12 Jan 2001, William M. wrote: Hi, I have been looking for in the manual but i didn't find anything, that how i tell to MySQL tha i have a databases.

Martin You shold have atleast one column (or combination) that is unique to each row in your table, this would be the PRIMARY KEY. If you need the database to enforce the uniqueness of other columns (or combinations) you would use a UNIQUE KEY. KEY and INDEX are synonyms. That work? If you want it generated automaticaly what you want is an auto_increment column something like create table blah (id bigint unsigned not null auto_increment, rest of table columns) would hold a VERY large number that would increase for each entry. probably an 'int unsigned' is big enough for most things. - 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?

problems when accessing from several clients
Hi all, When I access MySQL from several API clients, one of them quits with the error message: Query failed (Lost connection to MySQL server during query) Does any one know why?
Help with a semi-complex query
I'm simplifying slightly, here's the basic tables: build --- idx int namechar(16) test_name idx int namechar(64) main_table idx int unsigned test_name_idx medint status char build int swipchar(11) I want to do the following query, but a little more: select distinct test_name.name, status, build.name from main_table, test_name, build where test_name_idx=test_name.idx AND build.name ='x5.1.0' AND build.idx=build_idx; The above works fine. But I need to get the swip value at the same time, which will break the distict function of returning one result for each test name because I may have multiple results for a single test name build. The following does not work: select distinct test_name.name, status, build.name, swip from main_table, test_name, build where test_name_idx=test_name.idx AND build.name ='x5.1.0' AND build.idx=build_idx; Any suggestions? -mike - 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?

Re: 3.23.28-gamma Crash and data loss
We have replicated this crash over and over just now... Very strange. Yet with the 2.23.30 version, we dont lose the data and dont seem to get corruption. Here is exactly what happened... (This also crashed it in the first place, which lost all our data in the 2.23.28 version) We have a table called user For testing we went to do this insert into the db... which, by the way, was trying to insert into the 17th row in an auto incremented id... This is a Berkely DB file. ERROR 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query mysql insert into user (user_id,user_name,first_name,last_name,display_name,email,notes,password) values (NULL,'testuser','Jason','mCwIl','jason ','[EMAIL PROTECTED]','none','tester'); ERROR 2006: MySQL server has gone away No connection. Trying to reconnect... Connection id:1 You could sit and do this over and over and over. But, the connection would come right back and no data was lost. So, I actually tried a different query next: insert into user values (NULL,'tester','jason','jason','jason mcwilliams','tridog','','[EMAIL PROTECTED]','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',''); or somthing simlar which produced: Query OK, 1 row affected (0.02 sec) So, I thought it might be the format of the insert... so then I try the first insert again: insert into user (user_id,user_name,first_name,last_name,display_name,email,notes,password) values (NULL,'testuser','Jason','mCwIl','jason ','[EMAIL PROTECTED]','none','tester'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.02 sec) I havn't had another error since? It was like it could not insert that style of insert into that particular row, once it got passed that... it is fine. I would think we could reproduce this by dropping the database recreating it, and redoing the create statements (just like we had to do to recover)... If anyone from mysql is interested in trying to reproduce this, let me know. -- Jason McWilliams Tridog Interactive, Inc. 303-415-2538 Jason McWilliams wrote: Well, we upgraded to 2.23.30 and tried to bring it up with the same seemingly corrupt datafiles.

It was like it was making its way through the entire db transaction log. We ended dropping the entire database and going to our most recent mysqldump. We just have to hope that the .30 version fixed this corrupted file thing when mysql crashes. If anyone else has knowledge about this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Ok I get a table is full error...

need advice about security
Hi everyone, I use a MySQL database for the back end of our e-commerce site. We take credit as one method of payment and the last 8 digits of the card number are stored in the database. There is a web interface to the database from which I can get order information, but not the card number. I also can access the database through a MyODBC connection and MyAccess. In order to proceed with invoicing, I need to retrieve the card number (all 16 digits). I can think of a couple of ways to do this: 1. Change the web interface to include the card number. 2. Bring the information into Access through the ODBC connection. 3. Have the card number encrypted and sent through email, using PGP (this is the way we did it on our old system). There may be others which I am not thinking of also. Which method would be the most secure, or is there a better and more secure method which I haven't mentioned? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. take care, robynr Robyn Renwick, CPST (NIC 1998) Programmer, Buckingham Stencils, Inc.
