After backup/restore view turns to table
Hi All ! I did mysqldump mydb -uroot -ppass --databases --add-locks --allow-keywords --create-options --extended-insert --routines -r file.sql and after that in MySQL Command Line Client source file.sql After that my view was converted to an empty table. What should I do to backup and restore my view correctly ?

Re: Backup: Copy MYSQL Directory or use MysqlDump

Hence it is mostly slower than locking the MyISAM tables and copying them or shutting down the server and taring the entire MySQL directory if you are using innodb.

It will more of depend on your use case. Alex is right. Depending on how you'll want to be able to restore, and how big your database is you may use different methods for backup. I usually use mysqldump along with bzip2 for maximum compression, but I have used tar in the past. cp -av retains permissions, making it easy for restore, but its not a good option, as you can't compress data nor restore pieces of information in an easy way.

RE: Ms access front end and mysql back end
If the connection itself passes a test, but MS Access hangs, I don't know what to suggest. I'm not an expert, it just worked when I tried it. You use File... Get external data... Link tables, right? Is that where it hangs? Does it list the tables in your MySQL data base, or doesn't it even get that far?

The front end is MS access. This is where I have forms, queries, reports and macros. The front end is installed on all the five work workstations. The server runs Windows Advanced 2000 server and the workstations run Windows XP. The problem is, I cannot connect to the server using any of the workstations. When I try to connect using myodbc, the system the system is able to connect to the server. But when I open MS access and then try to link to the server, MS access hangs. What is the solution? I would really appreciate If you could assist. Is there any other way I can connect to the database on the server. MS Access has limitation in terms of number of records. I have been having problems with constant hanging, working in MS Access (Both Front and Back end). That is the reason why I opted to convert MS Access Tables into Mysql. Can you please advise if I have to abandon MS access completely and go to another front end. __ __ Food fight? Enjoy some healthy debate in the Yahoo!

speeding up a join COUNT
I'm performance testing my 'users' table. It currently has roughly 1M user records. The 'geo_entities' table has ~ 250 records. Here's my query. SELECT users.entity_id, geo_entities.entity_name, geo_entities.short_code, COUNT( users.entity_id ) FROM users, geo_entities WHERE users.user_type = 'user' AND users.entity_id = geo_entities.id GROUP BY entity_id LIMIT 0 , 30 It took 51 seconds to execute. Both tables only have an index on their unique record id. Is there a way to speed up this up? -James -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Unable to put data on a different computer from mysql
I've been trying to put the data onto our data drive, and the mysql application on the main server. I've edited the my.ini file correctly. I can get it to work on different drives where the data is on the same computer as mysql. I can't get it to work where the data is on a different computer. Below is a copy of the my.ini. I've also tried it where my datadir=S:/mydata/data where I put the virtual drive letter in. No go. the service will not start. I'm using version 4.0.18-nt. I've also tried it with version 4.1.21-win32. Same result. Works on a different drive but both mysql and data must be on the same computer. Any thoughts? #This File was made using the WinMySQLAdmin 1.4 Tool #10/17/2005 10:37:37 AM #Uncomment or Add only the keys that you know how works. #Read the MySQL Manual for instructions [mysqld] basedir=C:/mysql #bind-address=127.0.0.1 datadir=//SOFTWOODSERVER/SharedDocs/mydata/data #language=C:/mysql/share/your language directory #slow query log#= #tmpdir#= #port=3306 #set-variable=key_buffer=16M #set-variable=max_allowed_packet=3M [WinMySQLadmin] Server=C:/mysql/bin/mysqld-nt.exe user=PTurk password=password -- Kelly Solakofski Softwood Technology Customer Service Manager 416-504-8724 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

AFAIK, Mysql refuses a remote datadir by design. You CAN use tricks to bypass this at Windows, and you surely won't have this problems with Linux if you configure something like NFS. You may Google for win solutions, but its just not advisable on a real system with some valuable data. -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?

Alias a function result?
I know that you can alias a function result as easily as anything else, but I've run into a problem with an application I inherited. For reasons too murky to go into, I would like to refer to the result of a group function as the name of the argument of the function. Here's an example of what I mean: SELECT book_author, GROUP_CONCAT(book_title) AS book_title GROUP BY book_author WHERE book_title LIKE something; This actually seems to work, but it makes me ill to look at it. Is this legal, or have I found a loophole that might be closed in the future? I'm using server version 4.1.21-standard.
