#1101 - BLOB/TEXT Column 'data' Can't Have A Default Value
Im using phpmyadmin for working with mySQL. (its my local version, im just trying to use it).
When i want to add BLOB type column in table - that mistake appears:
#1101 - BLOB/TEXT column 'data' can't have a default value
I turned off strict mode (from my.ini, or by config wizard), but it did not help.
I've found alot about that problem in that site, but i dont uderstand anything, because im just Newbie.
So what should i do to make BLOB/TEXT column have a default value? Is it possible without using hard way, just by changing something, or download any new version?

Exporting Blob / Text Column With Hyphen Delimited Text
I have a table that contains a column (blob, text type, formatted as MEDIUMTEXT) with text hyphen (-) delimited, listing rooms by numbers, and I need to export or insert that data into another table, where all other info on the other columns remains the same, but I need the data on the blob field to be single listed another words, i have a table like this (example): School Rooms Your Hometown High School 1034-1035-1037-1039 My Hometown High School 208-178-1432-1728 I need it like this: School Rooms Your Hometown High School 1034 Your Hometown High School 1035 Your Hometown High School 1037 Your Hometown High School 1039 My Hometown High School 208 My Hometown High School 178 My Hometown High School 1432 My Hometown High School 1728

BLOB - Error 22001 Data Too Long For Column
I'm using .net connector and attempting to store a c# byte[1200] array into a BLOB field in my InnoDB table. I'm getting the error: {"#22001Data too long for column '_ch1RawData' at row 1"} If I change the array to have a length of 120, it seems to work OK. This makes no sense to me, 1200 isn't too big? From what I have read, a BLOB's max size is 2^16 + 1 which puts me safely in the valid size range for this array.Here is a snip of code that I'm using to save the blob: <code> MySqlCommand command = new MySqlCommand( Settings.Default.AddTestResultSprocName, connection); command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; //.. code that opens the connection, etc command.Parameters.Add( new MySqlParameter("_ch1RawData", ch1Raw)); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); </code> Does anyone see a problem with this?

Data Types :: Blob And Text Returns Only Value 252 $handle->types
I'm writing a perl script that will among other things collect data types from a mysql database. I'm using mysql.pm 2.9002 to retrieved types information from the statement handle. The problem is that all blob and text fields return the value 252 when using the $handle->types function and I need to differentiate between them. Has anyone else dealt with this issue?

BLOB / TEXT Question
I need to store what amounts to a story, or article text in to a table - Its likely that most articles will not exceed 2000 characters however I came up with the idea of having three tables whereby an article upto 2000characters would be saved in to table2, articles with a strlen>2000 + <4000 would go into table4 and articles with a strlen>=4000 would go in to table3. My thinking behind this is when articles are deleted, and new articles are re-written, their text will utilise the space of the previously removed articles... If I manage to match new storys residing in the space of an old story that had similar length, I can reduce the potential for defragmantation... Am I wasteing my time here - should I leave it up to the db? I currently have about 80mb of article text - and thats one year - and I expect to be asked to have room for an archive of five years - I know we're not talking about mountains of disk space here but there is potential that I could use this application for other customers hence I'm trying to forward plan in to the next five years. anyone got comments? Would it be bad practice to have three tables? Would there be little/no advantage unless we were talking about gigs of article I/O?

Extracting Text From MySQL Blob
I'm working on reports for a third-party application that uses MySQL. There are a few fields that store text in a blob field. I'm using ASP (classic) and I know I can use Response.BinaryWrite to simply display the text from a blob. However, now I want to generate an xml document using the same data, and need to replace some instances of "&##38;" with "&". Somehow, using "substring(blobfield,1,2000)" in my request works for one blob field, giving me normal text I can work with. However, I can only go as high as "substring(blobfield2,1,255)" with the other blob field. 256 or higher yields a bunch of question marks "?????????" instead of normal text. While using 255 is okay, it does truncate the field for a few records.I've tried using CONVERT and CAST on the blob fields, but that wasn't working (I might have had the wrong syntax).

Converting Blob To Text In A Query
we store text from reviews in a table in blob format. I wrote a query to return some of the reviews, but of course the reviews are not returning in text, but in blob code. I need to know how to convert this blob code to text so I can read these reviews. The only documentation I have found on this (and I'm not sure it's applicable in this case) is to run a query before the actual query I want that looks like this: "select 'A' like convert(blob_col using latin1) from tbl_name;" I don't understand what 'A' is in this case though and how to apply it to my table.

BLOB Column
We currently upload MS word files to our web server (Win2000/IIS 5 - using traditional ASP) and save them in various folders, depending on the customer it is intended for. For security reasons, I would like to begin storing these files in a database table, medium BLOB column (using MySQL 4, MyISAM table type) as opposed to having them stored on the file system. Is it possible to use the file upload procedure and have the file written directly into the database, without having to save it to the server's hard disk first? If this is possible, can someone point me to some code examples of how to do this with ASP? If I MUST save to the hard disk first, can someone tell me the procedure for inserting into the BLOB column? I can then delete the file from the hard disk once I confirm the file has been inserted into the db. We currently store anywhere from 60,000 - 80,000 such word files in a bunch of folders (over 1,000) on the server. Does anyone recommend one storage system over another (file system vs. database)

Medium Blob Column
I am having problems inserting into at medium blob column. The most common error for this from what I have been reading is the server variable 'max_allowed_packet' but I have set this to 5 MB. The file that i am trying to upload is only 1.7 MB. I can upload files that are around 1.2 MB, but haven't gotten any larger than that, i don't know exactly where the cutoff point is. Has anyone else had experience with this problem? This error occurs whether i try to add it via a php script or using the mysql query browser. I am at a lost here, because the mysql documentation pages only seem to list the max_allowed_packet as a solution when getting this error and inserting into blobs. Does anyone have any thoughts? Just some more info, the server is running on windows 2000 server. mysql version is 4.1.8 standard. there are 19 gb free on the hard drive.

Add Additional Data To Existing Data In A Blob Field
I have a Blob field called "category" that we use to store different categories of job types that our users set up so they receive emails based off of the ones that they have picked. What I need to do is to add 4 new values to the beginning of each users "category" field. I am not really sure how to do this except that I might need to use UPDATE to get it done. This is where it will get tricky, I need to check for the 4 values to see if they already have them and just add the oines that they don't have. Here are the 4 values that I need to check for and add. Allied Health Care, Nursing, Rehab/Therapy, and Other/Pharmacy/Physicians. Here is what a current list of values would look like in the users table and the category column: Code:

Use Now() As Default Value For A Column
I cannot find any good material on this, and it seems like it should be so easy. I have two columns in my table, creation_date and last_modified_date. I want the creation_date field to bear the default value of Now(), so that when a row is created the timestamp is there. This value should never change, and should only be set on row creation. The last_modified_date field I want to change on the UPDATE only. It seems that this may be possible using the TIMESTAMP type and the default values there but what I read is that they will update everytime a row is altered. This would be dead-simple if I could just specify Now() as the default value.

Default Value For A Column, When Value Is Not Specified
We have migrated our database from DB2 to MYSQL. In DB2, there is an option like 'GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY' which will cause DB2 to generate unique values for the identity column during insert operations if no value is specified for the identity column. However, if a value is specified for the identity column, DB2 will use it in the insert operation. In MYSQL, is there an option like this?

Default Value On Date Column
Using MySQL control center, I created a MySQL database table with a column of Date type. It always give the a Default value (0000-00-00) even null is allowed. I tried remove the default value and it comes back by itself. So if I don't supply a value when insert, the default is used. Query IS NOT NULL will not exclude this record. Now, In VB (with ADO/MyOLEDB), I did the exact query trying to filter out the null record. But I still get the record just like in Control Center. BUT, the value on this column is "NULL". How can I leave the Date field as null if no value is supplied?

BLOB For Storing Data
I'm implementig a java web application using MySQL as database. The main function of the application is basically to redistribuite documents. Those documents (PDF, DOC with an average size around 2Mb) are stored in BLOB column. The amount of documents for the first year should not exceed 5/6 Giga, but I cannot make prevision for the next years. Those documents are mainly just accessed (update and delete are not so common operation) I would like to know if someone else is using a similiar approach. If so, it is scalable?

Corrupt BLOB Data

What usually end up happening is that the data ends up getting corrupted either while uploading or downloading it. I am not sure what's wrong. Using Perl to upload and download the data. I am using the latest DBI package. binary file size = 4168 bytes Possible errors: *these errors depend on what machine the code is run on 4168 bytes retrieved, but contains incorrect data <4168 bytes retrieved <4168 bytes retrieved <4168 bytes uploaded >4168 bytes uploaded The Perl code works on my unix machine, but not on my win machine The Perl code works on my co-workers win machine, but not our unix server.

LOAD_FILE Into BLOB Corrupts Data

I try to load the file from the FS with LOAD_FILE(). Then I display these from the DB with a browser. Some of these work perfectly. No problems at all. Others seem to have corrupt data. I am trying to figure out if anyone else has had this issue. I know that people do this with PHP and use addslashes() to escape characters. My whole system is works in UTF8. I even tried with a PHP script to see if that was it and still no luck. Does anyway have any ideas? The DB is 4.1.8. I have tried 4.0.23 and 4.0.18 (which on my old RH AS 2.1 seemed to work). The OS is RH9.

Use Mysql Command Line To Unload Blob Data
I have been investigating mysql for a project to store and extract images from a blob field. I have searched on "blob" in the mysql forums and have read the pro and con arguments for storing images in a blob filed vs just storing the link to image file on-disk so we don't have to re-hash them here. I am trying to use mysql and suitable tools as a intermediate storage for inventory items extracted from QuickBooks Point of Sale system to allow the association of expanded text product descriptions and product image files with the exported POS inventory. I have found SQLYog to be a useful tool to allow me to create an inventory table with fields for existing values in the CSV delimited POS inventory unload file and to add blob fields to store text input for expanded product descriptions and product images. I can use any editor to create the expanded product descriptions and paste it into the SQLYog blob field viewer. I can use the blob field viewer to load an image from the disk. When all the inventory items are updated with expanded description and product images, I can use SQLYog to export the inventory table as a CSV file for upload to web site inventory engine. However, I need to upload the product images in mass accumulated in a zip file. SQLYog allows me to select the fields to be included in the CSV file and I select all fields and deselect the image blob field. To assemble the image zip file, I could visit each product's image blob field with the SQLYog blob field viewer and select "save to file" and specify the name for the image. Not too bad for a few products but very time consuming for a 2000+ inventory. Code:
