Re: book advice

2005-04-17 Thread David Bailey
Thanks all for the advice. It seems that no-one is recommending the book I
mentioned. I've now got Paul DuBois' book (unfortunately, it's the second
edition, but hope that's still okay). Looks rather large! But it also looks
very clear.

book advice

2005-04-13 Thread David Bailey

Hi,

I'm a newbie and looking for a book to help me learn mysql. I have come
across a book called Beginning MySQL by Robert Sheldon and Geoff Moes.

Can anyone recommend this book? Or, if not, what book can you recommend for
a newbie.

Re: Error 1043 Bad handshake [In MySQL Administrator]

2004-11-17 Thread Chris Bailey
I have just installed MySQL Administrator on FreeBSD 5.2.1. I am trying to use the Connect to MySQL Server Instance 
dialog to establish a connection to a version: 4.0.22 MySQL server. I can establish a remote connection using:

mysql -h hostname -p -u username databasename
However, using MySQL Administrator, I get the following error:
Could not connect to host 'hostname'.
MySQL Error Nr. 1043
Bad handshake
I have UPDATED the database password as suggested using the OLD_PASSWORD() 
function. Still not able to establish a connection.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your time,
cb
An answer to my own question.  I have solved this problem which seems to be 
due to the way
mysql 4.1.7 stores it's passwords.  I used the mysql function OLD_PASSWORD to 
make mysql
store it's passwords in the pre 4.1.x method.  Basically the syntax is:
mysql UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd') WHERE Host = 
'some_host'
AND User = 'some_user';
mysql FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Now I seem to be able to connect.

Did you use mysql client program from 4.1.7 installation? When you use
it from 4.1.0 or older (on another machine) there some differences in

 I have a brand new install of 4.1.7 on a Redhat 9 box.  I compiled it with:

I don't think that I need to do any sort of permission fixing (Isn't that just for
migrated data?) I can connect to it via local host just fine but if I try to connect from
another machine running 4.1.? I get:
 bash-2.05$ mysql landfill -u root -p -h 192.168.1.100

 Any idea what I am doing wrong?

wierd error message from mysqld

2004-02-27 Thread Brent Bailey
Hello,
 Im running mysql on a Freebsd 4.9.. In going through my logs this 
 morning I saw this error. I find it odd that mysqd would try to open 
 the /etc/hosts.allow file .. this makes me think that someone issued 
 the command through mysql .with that in mind.
  
 1. Is there a way to get mysqld to log to a specific file ?
  
 2. Does the below error mean that someone tried to access these files 
 via mysql commands ?
 
 
 Feb 25 13:44:14 xxx mysqld[175]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 59:

Why Doesn;t this Date Query Work?

2004-02-24 Thread Scott Bailey
Hello All,

I have a very strange problem which makes no sense to me whatsoever.

I am trying to find the number of queries that the people have dealt with
in a database between two dates. The dates are generated from some drop
down boxes and dropped into a variable. This is the code for the query.

$sql = 'SELECT Username, Count( Username ) FROM MainDetails, Usernames
WHERE MainDetails.UserID = Usernames.UserID and Date Between \'$Date1\'
and \'$Date2\' GROUP BY Username';

The strange thing is if I replace the $Date2 variable with a date manually
it works -. i.e. 

$sql = 'SELECT Username, Count( Username ) FROM MainDetails, Usernames
WHERE MainDetails.UserID = Usernames.UserID and Date Between \'$Date1\'
and \'2004-01-01\' GROUP BY Username';

This would indicate that the variable is wrong but it is not. The code to
generate the variable is exactly the same as $Date1 further more it echos
on screen and is creating the date in the format as entered in the manual
version?

Any ideas?

 Not a MySQL issue, but an error in your PHP code. Single quotes do NOT
 replace variables with their values,
 so if you use double quotes:
 $sql = SELECT Username, Count( Username ) FROM MainDetails, Usernames
 WHERE MainDetails.UserID = Usernames.UserID and Date Between '$Date1' and
 '$Date2' GROUP BY Username;
 it will work.

Someone PLEASE Help Me!!! This should be really easy for you folks!

2003-10-17 Thread Mike Bailey
I desperately need everyone's help.  

I normally build database driven websites on NT Servers with an MS Access database, 
using perl 5 to read/write the database.

Now I need to build a website that can handle a database with almost a gigabyte worth 
of images to catalog (no it's not porn).  

Ideally I would like to use the same method BUT the only hosts i can find that will 
offer that much disk space only use Unix and MySQL.

I, However, have never used MySQL.  I have used sql statements in the perl script to 
read/write the MS Access database, but i have never used MySQL.

I need someone to tell me would I have to buy some software to build a MySQL database? 
 
Is there a free download that i can use to build the database?  
Where would I find it to download/purchase it?
Is there an easy example of what statements I could use from a perl script to add, 
delete and read a single entry or a whole range of entries from the database?

Can someone please help me?  I'm desperate!  

Alternatively, if someone knows of a host that offers that much space and MS Access 
capatibility for around $10 a month that would certainly work too.

Thank you everyone for your help and time in this.

Sincerely,

Using LOAD DATA IN FILE or SOURCE with MyODBC.

2003-03-25 Thread William Bailey
Hello all,

I am thinking about produceing a small app that will use MyODBC on a windows 
machine to connect to a MySQL server on a remote FreeBSD machine.

I already have something that will open an MS Access database and output 
either a MySQL syntax or CSV file and before i start adding an 'export 
directly to MySQL server' option want to know if it is possiable to issue the 
'LOAD DATA IN FILE' or 'SOURCE' SQL commands to export the data from the 
Windows machine to the FreeBSD machine.

FW: Text field question

2003-01-19 Thread Robyn Bailey
Could anyone please tell me how I write an SQL statement to seperate
text from one field into multiple fields based on a aprticular character
(i.e. tab/comma/space). For example, I have a text field containing:
Text=Robyn Bailey Brisbane

I want to seperate this (per query) into 3 fields so that I can sort and
count the fields: Name=Robyn Surname=Bailey Location=Brisbane

I dont want it permanently just per query (for a report).

Thanks in advance

Re: Hiding the password

2002-12-26 Thread Brent Bailey
i would try using php to have you page connect to the mysql database.. The code gets 
parsed
first then is loaded into the browser...so the user  pass for the database is never 
seen.. i
would use something like:

$db = mysql_connect(localhost, mysql-user, mysql-user-password);
 mysql_select_db(whatever-database-name,$db);

  I want to make a CGI program in Perl that queries a MySQL database, and the

  server.
 
  I need to gave 755 permissions to CGI scripts because they need to be

  Do you have any tips for hiding the password,

 Not really. Whereever you put it, the web server account has be able
 to access it, so the problem stays. Even if you could arrange that
 only the web server account can read it (e.g. by changing the owner of
 a file containing the password), every user with permission to create
 CGI scripts can still write a script to read the data.

  or accessing MySQL from CGI scripts is not secure at all?

 Well, it is as secure as the server is set up. E.g. one can set up
 Apache so that it executes CGIs as the user to whom the script
 belongs. I know this has its own problems... it was only intended as
 example that it is a question of the server configuration.

 The best way is always a compromise and depends on how the server is
 used. If the server configuration is not in your hands, I don't there
 is much you can do, except asking the admin which way she suggests.

 HTH,

 Benjamin.

user password issue help ?!?

Hello ...  my name is Brent ..and im using the latest version of mysql
on a Freebsd box with apache  php3  php4. My problem is that ive set a

password for the root mysql user by doing:
/usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'x'

then i installed phpMyAdmin ..and set the correct username  password
within phpMyAdmin's config file ..and it connects to mysql with no
problems. However ..i wrote a form with php3  html ...to connect using
the same username  password and it will not connect. I know that the
form is correct in its code...in that ...i moved the form to another
server (running the same versions of mysql  such) and it connected with

no issues. Ive seen this problem on other servers that i have
administerd in the past and have not been able to get it to work
correctly without totally uninstalling and re-installing mysql.
When i set a password in the form for root@localhost to connect to mysql

i get the following error:

to get around this issue temporarily i have set the root@localhost user
with NO password ( i hate doing this as i know its not secure)

Id rather not run mysql with  skip grant tables ... whenever i add a
user  password to mysql  and then set  a form to use that UN  PW ...it

will not connect however if i take that user out and just use a root
user with NO password ..it will work..can anyone give me a clue as
to what i can do ..??
Any and ALL help is greatly appreciated..

4.0.5 mysqld-max segs on TCP connect under RH 8.0

2002-12-03 Thread bailey

MySQL-4.0.5-0, MySQL-shared-4.0.5-0, MySQL-devel-4.0.5-0,
MySQL-client-4.0.5-0, MySQL-Max-4.0.5-0

 mysqld-max starts normally (including binding TCP socket) and handles
 connections via Unix socket normally, but segs when connection made from
 another machine via TCP.  Quoth the server (my wrap):

/usr/bin/mysqld_safe: line 312: 13509 Segmentation fault \
$NOHUP_NICENESS $ledir/$MYSQLD $defaults --basedir=$MY_BASEDIR_VERSION \
--datadir=$DATADIR $USER_OPTION --pid-file=$pid_file --skip-locking \

 with little info in the log (not surprisingly):

/usr/sbin/mysqld-max: ready for connections

Number of processes running now: 1
mysqld-max process hanging, pid 13512 - killed
021203 13:49:00  mysqld restarted
/usr/sbin/mysqld-max: ready for connections

 Non-max mysqld runs fine so far.  Quick ldd doesn't show up any obvious

 linked against i386 equivalents):

Constraint HELL

2002-08-21 Thread Jim Bailey

sql, query
I understand I must use InnoDB tables if I plan to use constraints.

If I:
   CREATE TABLE TEMP_TEST(A CHAR(2),B CHAR(2))
   TYPE = InnoDB;

Well the test table gets created, but it is, according to
SHOW TABLE STATUS, a MyISAM table.  How can I set Type to InnoDB
and make it stick.

And if it is true that InnoDB tables can contain
only 1000 or fewer rows, what's the use. I could do that with a text file.

Constraint Hell

2002-08-20 Thread Jim Bailey

sql, Query
Hark ye experts!

Here I stand an expert grunt.
Trying to understand,
The syntax of constraint.

I was directed to the constraint doc.
And found the constraint doc doth suck.

Here's my ploy, renewed, refined.
Please see if you can help.

To create my Foreign table I used the following script

CREATE TABLE IIM_InventoryItemMaster(
IIM_InventoryItemMaster_ID MEDIUMINT(8) NOT NULL,
IIM_ItemNm VARCHAR(64),
IIM_ItemDescCD VARCHAR(1) DEFAULT 'U',
IIM_GenderCD VARCHAR(1),
IIM_ItemPN VARCHAR(36),
IIM_Spec1Nm VARCHAR(48),
IIM_Spec2Nm VARCHAR(48),
IIM_RecordCreatedBY VARCHAR(24),
IIM_RecordCreatedDT DATETIME,
IIM_LastEditBY VARCHAR(24),
IIM_LastEditDT DATETIME,
PRIMARY KEY(IIM_InventoryItemMaster_ID),
KEY(IIM_GenderCD),
KEY(IIM_ITEMNm),
KEY(IIM_ItemDescCD),
key(IIM_ItemPN)
)
Type = INNoDB;

Then SHOW CREATE TABLE Told  me the table type
is MyISAM. Don't I need InnoDB to use Constraints?

Does INNoDB cause it woe?
===
Now for some clear and Poignant questions about MySQL hell?
===
From the following URL:http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/CREATE_TABLE.html
I found Constraint docs
===
[CONSTRAINT symbol] FOREIGN KEY [index_name] (index_col_name,...)
[reference_definition: REFERENCES tbl_name [(index_col_name,...)] [MATCH 
FULL | MATCH PARTIAL] [ON DELETE reference_option] [ON UPDATE 
reference_option]
===

Question I.
If there is a Foreign Key in a Foreign Table, then there must be a Native 
key in a Native Table.
What is the correct technical name of the {Native} Field?

Question II
I understand CONSTRAINT symbol to be the name of the constraint.
true or false?

Then there is FOREIGN KEY [index_name]
What Index_name, The name of the Foreign Key field's Index
(located in the Foreign Table?)
So this is the name of an index in the Foreign Table?

Question III.
Then comes (index_col_name,...)
I guess this means the name of the Foreign Key Field(s)?
true or false;

Question IV.
Next comes REFERENCES tbl_name. [(index_col_name,...)]
The name of the Native Table or he Fireign Table?
[(index_col_name)], This must mean the name of the Foreign Key Field(s) 
AGAIN?
true or false

Question V.
I suppose I should include the Constraint syntax in the SQL that creates the 
Native Table and not in the SQL that creats the Foreign Table?
True or false?

Thanks for your help
Jim Bailey

Re: Joining tables using IN (...) clause returns duplicate rows

2002-02-04 Thread Greg Bailey

I guess I'm a little confused about the MySQL versions.

What is the real production version?  If 4.0.2 can be called a
production version, I'd gladly use it on my web site; however, it
doesn't seem to indicate that on the MySQL home page.  So if I find a
bug in 3.23.47 that was fixed a long time ago as Mr. Milivojevic
states, wouldn't I expect it to find its way into the 3.23.X series as
the production series?

I really like MySQL and don't mean this as any type of a flame, just
wondering what the versions mean.  Thanks for any insight anyone can
shed on this for me

 Hi!
 
 I tested your case with 4.0.2 and got identical results from both
 queries.
 
 This was some bug probably fixed long time ago.

Joining tables returns duplicated rows

2002-02-01 Thread Greg Bailey

Description:

Joining multiple tables together in a select statement with where clauses
using the IN (...) construct generate duplicated output rows.

How-To-Repeat:

1.  ==Load the following into the test_bug database:

# MySQL dump 8.14
#
# Host: localhostDatabase: test_bug
#
# Server version3.23.41

#
# Table structure for table 'event'
#

CREATE TABLE event (
  id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  status int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  severity int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY  (id),
  UNIQUE KEY lens_event_0 (status,severity,id)
) TYPE=MyISAM;

#
# Dumping data for table 'event'
#

INSERT INTO event VALUES (1,0,2);
INSERT INTO event VALUES (2,0,2);
INSERT INTO event VALUES (3,0,3);
INSERT INTO event VALUES (4,0,3);
INSERT INTO event VALUES (5,1,2);
INSERT INTO event VALUES (6,2,3);

#
# Table structure for table 'severity'
#

CREATE TABLE severity (
  severity int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  description text
) TYPE=MyISAM;

#
# Dumping data for table 'severity'
#

INSERT INTO severity VALUES (0,'Unknown');
INSERT INTO severity VALUES (1,'Alert');
INSERT INTO severity VALUES (2,'Critical');
INSERT INTO severity VALUES (3,'Error');
INSERT INTO severity VALUES (4,'Warning');
INSERT INTO severity VALUES (5,'Notification');
INSERT INTO severity VALUES (6,'Informational');
INSERT INTO severity VALUES (7,'Debugging');

#
# Table structure for table 'status'
#

CREATE TABLE status (
  status int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  description text
) TYPE=MyISAM;

#
# Dumping data for table 'status'
#

INSERT INTO status VALUES (0,'New');
INSERT INTO status VALUES (1,'Acknowledged');
INSERT INTO status VALUES (2,'Working');
INSERT INTO status VALUES (3,'Resolved');
INSERT INTO status VALUES (4,'Closed');

2.  ==Execute the query query_normal.sql which produces the expected output:
(all 6 rows of event are returned)

  select * from event, status, severity
   where event.status = status.status
 and event.severity = severity.severity;

yields a result set of 6 rows

3.  ==Execute the query query_failure.sql which produces the failed output:
(Note the IN (...) clauses should have no effect on the output)

  select * from event, status, severity
   where event.status = status.status
 and event.severity = severity.severity
 and event.status in (0,1,2)
 and event.severity in (2,3);

yields a result set of 30 rows, with duplicated IDs

Too big for max_allowed_packet - service problem or JDBC driver problem?

2001-10-19 Thread Peter Bailey

I'm developing a Java application that uses a pool of JDBC connections
to store and retrieve data in a MySQL database.  I'm using the 3.23.38
Win32 version of MySQL, on Windows 2000 Professional, and the
mm.mysql-2.0.4 JDBC driver.

I'm using a table with a MEDIUMTEXT field, which the MySQL documentation
says can handle up to 16.7 Megs of data.  However, I've run into
problems with this Exception being thrown (the [java] prefix is there
because I'm running this from inside of an ant script):

 [java] java.sql.SQLException: Error during query: Unexpected
Exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException message given: Packet is
larger than max_allowed_packet from server configuration of 65536 bytes
 [java] at
org.gjt.mm.mysql.Connection.execSQL(Connection.java:898)
 [java] at
org.gjt.mm.mysql.Connection.execSQL(Connection.java:815)
 [java] at
org.gjt.mm.mysql.Statement.executeUpdate(Statement.java:227)
 [java] at
org.gjt.mm.mysql.jdbc2.Statement.executeUpdate(Statement.java:97)
 [java] at
com.incellico.arrayex.data.MyClass.storeBigField(MyClass.java:xxx)

I'm running mysql as a service on my machine, using the mysqld-max-nt
executable.  When I take a look at the variables, the output reports
that the max_allowed_packet size is set to 1 Meg.  I've tried explicitly
setting max_allowed_packet in the C:\WINNT\my.ini file, by adding a
[mysqld] section, and I've tried bumping up the available memory by
adding a [safe_mysqld] section with ulimit -d 256000, as was suggested
in the MySQL manual.  Neither has worked.

Could this be a problem with the mm.mysql JDBC driver itself?

Re: The Mysql socket thing using Redhat 7.1

2001-09-05 Thread Jason Bailey

Ed,

Thanks for the email. I was a bit tired last night and was a little frustrated (4 
nights getting nowhere), so apologies if I was little rude (I've just reread my email) 
and
sarcastic, but thanks for the 'Details' pun. I've dug myself into a hole offering to 
set up a Linux/Apache Webserver for a friend. There's no rush but wanted to use it as a
learning experience and am getting problems with mysql- everything else seems ok.

jason bailey ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) writes:

 I'm consistently getting the error (2002)
 : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
 '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)

You mean /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock? Details are IMPORANT.

Yes, thanks for the pun. It was the above /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock and I noted that 
deleting it and then running mysql_install_db  or possible safe_mysqld recreated.  

 I've deleted it and running something above has brought it back again!- this
 is good I think

Bad idea.

Slightly sarcastic- sorry

 1. Can i found out if the server is or is not running -which command and
 what am I looking for?

mysqladmin status

As I remember and I'm not sure I was going round in circles- this was a call giving 
the error- I've just read somewhere to  check that this is installed, so will do that
tonight

 2. Can I stop the mysql server

mysqladmin shutdown  

Again an error on that one

 3. Can I start it?

safe_mysqld

Yep it does produces a lot of information and then ends (I think- you see I'm not sure)

Where is mysql.sock?  In /tmp?  If so:
ln -s /tmp/mysql.sock /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

mysql.sock  is in the directory that the error produces i.e.
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

ln -s /tmp/mysql.sock /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
Should get you going.

This, in my ignorance, looks like a soft link to the mysql.sock in the 
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
location. The file(?) does exist and I'm not sure why a softlink will help unless it's 
something to do with permissions.
Thanks for your suggestions I'll give them a try.

Jason

Re: The Mysql socket thing using Redhat 7.1

2001-09-05 Thread Jason Bailey

Ed,

Once again, thanks for the email response. I'm going to try all the suggestions I've 
received. 

A colleague has suggested as I'm new to Linux to select the 'Install Everything' 
option in red hat 7.1. He suggests that it's probably easier (for me) to get everything
installed and work backward (uninstall the unnecessary) as I learn more.   

If the server is creating mysql.sock in  and something else is looking for it in 
/tmp, this is the easiest way to get it to
work, besides checking to make sure
that the permissions are such that anyone who needs to can read and write to 
mysql.sock. --

I think this may be my problem in that I couldn't understand whether   mysql.sock 
should be located in /var/lib/mysql but is required to be in /tmp. It certainly 
appears in
/var/lib/mysql  
I'll try your suggestion for this and check permissions.



 Well, it wasn't a pun :)  Details are critically important, especially when you work 
with complex systems like these.  I was commenting on the lack of detail in your post 
-

My mistake about the Pun. I do agree details are important; I will use mysqlbug next 
time, if I get no joy. I'd found several, if not more, postings from several people 
with
the same type of question, regarding the error I was getting. I'd assumed that this 
common problem was well understood and didn't require explicit detail from myself. 

 you ran something and something happened, but you weren't quite sure what. It's 
much more difficult when people have to guess what you did.  I'm not trying to flame 
you
 at all - but you will probably be able to get a lot more, and a lot higher quality, 
help if you can supply as much detail as possible.

I would'nt blame you for flaming my first email was a little rude. The detail I will 
try for next time.
 
  I've deleted it and running something above has brought it back again!- this
  is good I think
 
  Bad idea.
 
 Slightly sarcastic- sorry
 
 No, this really *is* a bad idea! The mysql.sock file is created by the server - if 
you delete it, you will not be able to connect locally.

I'd been sarcastic and was apologising. I realised it was a bad idea but was getting 
frustrated and wanted to see if it would be recreated as a test if I was running the
server at all. On deleting it I was finding that it was being recreated when running 
something.

Something- I wasn't sure about at the time either mysql_install_db or safe_mysqld  - 
still not sure but will check tonight when I get home.

The Mysql socket thing using Redhat 7.1

2001-09-04 Thread jason bailey

HI,

I'm a new user to Linux and am interested in MySQL and PHP. I currently use
both as a developer elsewhere and am now trying to set up a test server at
home.

I've searched the MYSQL lists and notice that alot of people are getting a
similar problem as myself and I'm not sure if any have got this to work.

I'm consistently getting the error (2002)
: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)

I've read through the manual about problems starting a server but this has
not helped and I've tried to follow help in the lists but again no result.

I run mysql_install_db and get the messages about starting up

I run safe_mysqld  and get something about starting and stopping

I've found the the mysql.sock and it's in the location that the error
mentions the location of the sock thing?? (It's late and I'm tired and a bit
fed up -after being told to forget windows and go to Linux- I really wanted
to agree but am now finding it hard too!)

I've deleted it and running something above has brought it back again!- this
is good I think

I've uninstalled mysql and reinstalled the client, server etc but still the
same error

People keep responding about starting up or restarting the server. Someone
has mentioned Services Mqsqld Start which does something but every single
time I try mysql I get that error.

I'm just going round in circles now. Can someone give me some help.

1. Can i found out if the server is or is not running -which command and
what am I looking for?
2. Can I stop the mysql server
3. Can I start it?

Using anything to do with mysql or mysqladmin results in the error. I'm
currently reading about something to do with configure  how ???

Please please please help

Jason

Temporary Table problem

2001-01-27 Thread Matt Bailey

I'm using version 3.23.25, and am having trouble setting up a temporary 
table. I have the following permanent table already set up:

bill_pay
(pbid int (8) default '0' not null auto_increment,
billdesc varchar(20),
bpamount int(8),
pbdate date,
budgetid int(8),
primary key (pbid), unique id (pbid))

I have tried to set up a temporary table:

CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE tempbills (
billdesc varchar(20),
bpamount int(8)
)

SELECT billdesc, bpamount FROM bill_pay

When I do this I get an error message saying "Duplicate column name 
"billdesc"". And if I change the column names on the temp table it still 
won't work - the table doesn't get created.

If someone could help me out I'd be grateful!

Matt
