Re: Sort results by order in list
Hi,
It comes from external source together with Relevance value (float),
where the first ID has highest relevance and subsequent IDs are in
decreasing order.
For example:
109k7 1.79
s3x6 1.34
sxmns 1.21
wt57 0.93
I could use these numbers in the query as well if it helps.

How can I get the results sorted by the order in which they appear in
the ID list? Indeed I could do it in the application but prefer to get
the results in the right order from MySQL as the ID list may be long
and I may need only first few entries cropped by LIMIT clause. Ideally
it should ORDER BY DATE(start_date) DESC and then by the ID list. Do I
need some sort of stored function for that?

what you probably want is

ORDER BY FIELD(id,'109k7','s3x6','sxmns','wt57')

RE: Fulltext Relevancy not returning anticipated results?
By default, MySQL ignores any word with less than four characters when
doing full text searches. You can change this in my.conf, the setting should
be obvious.
I had to do this so that customers could find inventory items that were red.

Subject: Fulltext Relevancy not returning anticipated results?
I have a database of products, doing a search on them trying to achieve
a
modicum of relevancy, but am getting a strange result on some returned
rows:
QUERY:
select *,match(code) against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN MODE) * 8 + match(name)
against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN MODE) * 4 + match(small_desc) against
('vic*' IN
BOOLEAN MODE) * 2 + match(large_desc) against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
as
score from products where active='y' and site like '%,1,%' and
match(code,name,small_desc,large_desc) against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
order by score desc
I get returned 6 rows from the product database. The strange thing is,
there is a product (at least one that is known about), with the name:
Salchichon de Vic that is NOT being returned as a result.
When I break out the scores, I get a match on the first three products
returned for the titles:
6-Pack Vichy Catalan Sparkling Spring Water
2-Pack Vichy Catalan Mineral Water
San Vicente - Tempranillo 2001
And the other three products have a match in the large_desc.
What is confusing me is why I am not getting any match on the titles
for the
Salchichon de Vic - which by my thought process should be the most
relevant of all returns?
Any thoughts on this? The term vic used in this case is the search
string
submitted by the user.

Re: replication and ibdata file size
One possible explanation (possibly not the only one): if you do a massive update on the master, that transaction would need to create many blocks of versioned data. If you roll that transaction back, those blocks will be freed to be reused, but the datafiles won't shrink. Since that transaction wasn't commited, it won't be written to the binary log, so it won't be executed and rolled back on the slave (that's only true when all tables involved on a transaction are transaction-safe tables). -- Augusto Bott On 10/30/07, Thomas Raso [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, on a replication architecture, with the same server, the same Mysql version (4.1.21) and the same configuration, the same database.

Inserting a value in an autoincrement list?
Hello, I'm programming with PHP+Mysql a CMS system to easily update my site. I want to have a list of titles to which I can add new ones either at the end of the list or in a chosen position so I can choose what order they show up in. The first solution that I thought of was to add one to all of the position values heigher than the position I wish to insert the new one to. But this would envolve alot of queries and therefore resources. So now I'm wandering if it is possible to do this directly with mysql. Here is an example of what I want to do I will have a table called titles like this : table : title --- POSTITION| TITLE 1| title joejjeo 2| title ejuejej 3| title ekkke 4| title eueoueo 5|title eehiehiehop And I wish to insert : 3|title inserted So that titles in positions 3, 4 and 5 become titles 4, 5 and 6 So I would have : table : title --- POSTITION| TITLE 1| title 1 2| title 2 3|title inserted 4| title 3 5| title 4 6|title 5 Is there an easy way to do this with mysql ? and if not what would be the best way to achieve this?

Group by time range.
I have the following query... SELECT CreateDate, count( * ) FROM `userprofile` GROUP BY CreateDate It isn't exactly what I want. Records are added to this table in 2 main ways. First people use the web site interface to create records. In this case, records are only added by one or 2 people and with a significant time between record inserts. The second way is through an import that reads data from a text file. In the second case the date on the records will all be close together with about 60 records added per second. What I want to do is find all the groups where the inserts all happened with in say 10 seconds. So my group by would be more like..

Re: Fulltext Relevancy not returning anticipated results?
OK - I am at a total loss here :)
We have added an addition fulltext field with the highest rating:
match(search_keywords) against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN MODE) * 16
And verified that in that field, there is indeed a keyword vic - but still
- that result is not returned, SO...
That leads me to believe, that despite what my eyes see in the my.cnf:
ft_min_word_len = 2
Is indeed, not true.
So:
1. How do I confirm that when MYSQL starts up, it is indeed paying
attention the the file that I assume it is, /etc/my.cnf
2. How can I confirm whether this setting is confirmed as min word length
of 2, rather than the default 3?
3. Am I losing my mind that this search is not returning the result set
that I expect? Am I missing something in my query, is the search being
performed trying to match something I am not expecting?
I guess I am expecting the match to work similar to the like query, except
that it is looking for a string of vic somewhere within the field...
Perhaps it is something to do with the * appended on there? I thought
that as a wildcard operator it would match vic , vichon, vickey,
abcvicdef equally, but am I mistaken in that? If so, how can I replicate
a like type search with '%vic%' using fulltext, which is our intention?
The reason that I am using fulltext is:
1. I understand that is may be faster than a simple like search
2. The number of fields we are using for searching
3. The relevancy ranking that we are doing in this case
Am I wrong? I am really pushing the envelope of my MYSQL knowledge here, so
assistance is appreciated ;) I am not adverse to reading documentation,
just sometimes confused by what I am reading :)
TIA!

Subject: Fulltext Relevancy not returning anticipated results?
I have a database of products, doing a search on them trying to
achieve
a
modicum of relevancy, but am getting a strange result on some
returned
rows:
QUERY:
select *,match(code) against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN MODE) * 8 +
match(name)
against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN MODE) * 4 + match(small_desc) against
('vic*' IN
BOOLEAN MODE) * 2 + match(large_desc) against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN
MODE)
as
score from products where active='y' and site like '%,1,%' and
match(code,name,small_desc,large_desc) against ('vic*' IN BOOLEAN
MODE)
order by score desc
I get returned 6 rows from the product database. The strange thing
is,
there is a product (at least one that is known about), with the
name:
Salchichon de Vic that is NOT being returned as a result.
When I break out the scores, I get a match on the first three
products
returned for the titles:
6-Pack Vichy Catalan Sparkling Spring Water
2-Pack Vichy Catalan Mineral Water
San Vicente - Tempranillo 2001
And the other three products have a match in the large_desc.
What is confusing me is why I am not getting any match on the titles
for the
Salchichon de Vic - which by my thought process should be the most
relevant of all returns?
Any thoughts on this? The term vic used in this case is the
search
string
submitted by the user.

As it turns out, the cnf file that I was shown was the cnf file on the OLD
server that we used when we had DB/Webserver combined on one server - that
conf was not updated for the new separate DB server.
Thanks muchly all, that change made the search work as expected!!!
