Re: Set no root password
Simply I didn't know where the password was located in myphpadmin. I wanted it secure but I wanted to be able to get to the data with myphpadmin too. But now I know where it is I put the password in. And now I want to protect phpmyadmin so that only folks with a username/password can access it. At 10:43 AM 6/14/2003 -0500, you wrote: At 1:53 -0400 6/14/03, John Chang wrote: It worked!!. Thanks.

First, you want to remove the password from your MySQL root account. That is, you want to remove the protection against unauthorized access. Next, you want to keep people from getting to it without a password. That is, you want protection against unauthorized access. I fail to understand what you're trying to achieve...

Securing MYSQL
I have a website that uses MYSQL, PHP, IIS, WMS4.1 on a win2k box. The WMS4.1 is on a separate box and uses MyODBC to connect to MySQL. It only does look up. On the other box that has MYSQL, PHP, IIS there is insert, delete, select, etc. How do I secure MYSQL with NTFS permissions so that it doesn't break anything? I tried using authenticated users, and other users but can't seem to get the right configuration. Since the D: drive had the MySQL PHP folder I wanted to tighten it down. Right now it is set to everyone full control.

I'm planning on using Win2k Adv. server, IIS, MYSQL, PHP on a dual processor 2.4GHz processor with 1 or 2GB RAM, with either SCSI or ATA HDs.

Example SCSI 1000 conncetions, ATA 100 connections. Just want a ball park figure if there is a difference. 3) How much RAM do I need for 1000 conncurrent connections? 4) Should I use RAID 1 or 5?

I take it you're using DW MX and PHP and MySQL? Great combination! I'm
really glad DW supports this combination now.
What table type (and version of MySQL) are you using. The new version has
innodb table types built in, but you have to decide to use them. It doesn't
happen by default. When you use innodb you can declare columns as foreign
keys and then MySQL will not permit a value to be entered that is not a
Primary Key in the related table.
Suppose you are building the form for your titles table. You need a dropdown
lists for the Studios. So you create two recordsets in the page:
1. Select * FROM Titles;
2. Select StudioID, StudioName FROM Studios;
You tie the form's fields to the first query. You then redefine StudioID as
a dynamic list, and populate it using the second query. It isn't the most
intuitive thing in DW but once you get the hang of it, you can move pretty
quickly.
As for TitleGenres, presumably this would be a related page (it's hard to do
master-detail forms, much easier to do related pages, especially when you're
just starting out). Do you know how to do related pages? If not, go through
the tutorial that shows you how. The manual doesn't contain the example for
PHP/MySQL, you have to go to the DW site and download it from there. I don't
have the URL handy but look around it's easy to spot.
In the TitleGenres page, what will end up getting written to the table will
look something like this:
Title Genre
1 3 (Comedy, say)
1 4 (Thriller, say)
2 1 (Drama, say)
3 5 (Children's, say)
So you'll create a recordset from the Genres table, populate your dropdown
using the Genre names, and retrieve the GenreID from the control. You then
pass this to the query, which would read something like this:
SELECT VideoTitle, TitleID FROM Titles
INNER JOIN TitleGenres ON Titles.GenreID = Genres.GenreID
WHERE Titles.GenreID = 3
Hope this helps.
For a search page that shows a list of titles by genre, say

Subject: Re: Misunderstandings about SQL
OK, I'm getting close to understanding.
When I create the Title and Genre tables and then I create the TitleGenre
table. The database knows that the PK from the 2 tables are foreign keys
in TitleGenre. Is this correct? OR Is there any command I need to give
when adding the 2 PKs from the other two tables into TitleGenre so that it
will be a foreign key?
So when I create the search on the webpage using dreamweaver do I tell the
front-end to search the Titles table or the whole database to find Genre,
Titles, Actors, or Studios? I guess I don't understand how the computer
will know what to show on the webpage. I want all that info to come up and
then when someone clicks
Type
1) Is there a de facto type that is used? All I will be doing is creating a database for use on the web for dynamic webpages. Basically doing searches to the back-end MySQL database. I figure I don't need to use transactional type since I will not be adding any information via a front-end. I will probably load a file whenever I need to add more data. Am I correct? Or is it always best to use a transactional type? And which transactional type is better/reliable/robust to use? 2) If later on I change my mind and create a webpage as the front-end and start inputing data this way will I need a transactional type?

Normalization sql
I've read a bunch about normalization in MySQL and still can't do it very well. What I want to normalize is videos (Title, Studios, Actors, Genre, bitrate). These are the tables and fields I think it needs. Is this normalized? Thank you.

Re: Normalization sql
I forgot to add Video (This has all the Primary key id from the tables below) Now does it work? My question is how do I get the Primary keys into the video table? Do I just put them in and the database will know it should look in the other tables? How do I connect it? I read some books but it doesn't tell you how to do it. Thanks.

Where do you put the information which actor was playing in what title, which title was done in what studio etc. ? Normalization is a representation technique to avoid storing *redundant* information. But first this information has to be there. So first make the design complete (in an unnormalized way, which fits the problem), then in a *second* step normalize it. Greetings Michael At Montag, 14.

Re: Normalization sql
Studios (StudioName, StudioID) Genres (GenreName, GenreID) Titles (VideoTitle, Details, StudioID, GenreID, BitRateID, TitleID) Actors (F_Name, L_Name, ActorID) Stars (TitleID, ActorID) TitleGenres (TitleID, GenreID) So, if I just use theses tables I will be OK if the video has multiple titles, multiple actors, multiple genres? How do I create a junction table? Example, between Genres and Titles, how do I add the to PK fields to TitleGenres? Do I just create the TitleGenres table and add the TitleID GenreID field and does the database know they are linked? Thank you. At 09:50 AM 10/14/2002 -0400, Arthur Fuller wrote: You're starting off ok, just missing the links between the tables. I would suggest for simplicity though that you change the names of your PKs to reflect their table, i.e. Title (VideoTitle, Details, TitleID). Otherwise once you do multi-table queries joins you will have to specify the table names every time. A studio makes zero or more titles (videos). A film belongs to zero or more genres (your answer may be that a film belongs to precisely one genre) A title stars one or more actors (you may plan on storing only one, but how will you decide in a case such as Eight Women?) I would say you need a junction table between Titles and Actors so you can handle multiple stars. I'm not sure what BitRate means but I guess it is an attribute of the Title. Studios (StudioName, StudioID) Genres (GenreName, GenreID) Titles (VideoTitle, Details, StudioID, GenreID, BitRateID, TitleID) Actors (F_Name, L_Name, ActorID) Stars (TitleID, ActorID) If you decide that a Title can belong to more than one Genre, then you need a junction table there too: TitleGenres (TitleID, GenreID) This change would involve removing the GenreID from the Titles table. This design lets you easily find all the titles made by a studio, all the titles featuring a given actor (even if she is the co-star rather than the star), all the titles in a genre and even compound queries such as all the MGM thrillers featuring actor XYZ. hth, Arthur - Original Message - From: John Chang [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 14, 2002 8:49 AM Subject: Normalization sql I've read a bunch about normalization in MySQL and still can't do it very well.
