Can A MySQL Database Be Shared Between Windows And Linux?
I've got Windows and Linux running on my computer, on seperate partitions. I also have a shared partition for stroing files, and can be read and written by either system.
I also have MySQL installed on both systems. When I make changes to the database in Windows, I have to do a dump of the database (or single tables) to a text file on my shared partition. I then have to switch into Linux and load that file into MySQL there. This is a bit of a hassle.
Is it possible to somehow store the database file on the shared partition, and use the same database from both OSes? This would be very convenient, since I wouldn't have to maintain two copies of the same database!

Sharing Database Tables Between Windows & Linux
I'm new to MySQL (using v4.1) and have a dual boot machine with Windows and Debian Linux (Etch). My goal is to share a table named "wordpress" between Linux and Windows by storing it on a FAT32 mount (I realise this limits me to 4GB in total). From what I can see at the moment, the "wordpress" tables live under /var/lib/mysql/wordpress. Numerous searches have revealed how to backup data, but I haven't seen any clues on how to permanently reloate a database to another location.

Is MySql Syntax Different On Windows Vs. Linux?
On our team, we're working on a database. One copy is on the PC. The other copy is on Linux. I wanted to send a new table to the Linux guy. I went into MySQL Query Browser, did a "Copy CREATE statement to clipboard", and pasted the SQL code into a new email and sent it to my Linux guy. He tells me that the code fails every time. Here's what It looks like:

Multiple Database, 1 Shared Table, Is It Possible?
I Used MySQL for a long time dev under PHP 3, 4 and now 5 now i'm facing a problems that i solved in the past with php, but i wonder if MySQL could do it on it's own, that'll help me a lot. Multiple database, 1 shared table, is it possible? i mean, i already done with 5 install of Xoops CMS and modified it that every install is on the same database, with deifferents prefixes (like db1_ db2_ ...) then i mod Xoops for each time it called for it's users or saved open sessions id in the DB it use the same table on all install... so the users seamlessly wonder about in 5 differents xoops install without disconnect and change username. now i face the same problem, i need a multi-install or a single install of a core system that will act as a multi-install sofware, but with the same set of users, sessions and some other things.

Updates Invisible - Windows Only (Linux OK)
I have one Java app writing records to a database (App A) and another, a Java web application running under Tomcat, displaying the records. Call this App B. When I first log into App B and get a connection, all records in the database at that point get displayed OK. But after that, any new records inserted by App A do not get displayed when I refresh (running the query again). If I log out of App B and log in again, getting a new conection, I see all the new records. This behaviour only occurs if I'm running on Windows. If I run the database on my Linux box with the same application code, new records inserted by App B are immediately visible to App B with no need to close the connection and open a new one.

How Often Is Best To Create New Database, Migrate Data With Shared Hosting?
I have got a web site that I have ben working on since March, 2007. It is a news reporting web site. It is replacing an older web site. I created a new database (it uses the MySQL database) last March when I started working on the new web site. I have migrated all of the news content from the old web site database to the new web site database. I have a shared web hosting. It's my understanding that the hosting service provider fills up one server with databases then starts a new server with databases. For example, the IP for the server that is hosting the current database for the new web site is 10.6.166.5 I just created a new database (the hosting allows you to have ten databases per shared hosting). The IP for the server for the recently created database for the new web site hosting is 10.6.166.92 If the servers are ordered sequentially there have been 87 new servers filled up with databases since last March (i.e. 10.6.166.92 recently created IP minus 10.6.166.5 March, 2007 IP equals 87 servers). The problem with migrating the nine-month old database to the new database is that I have got over a thousand news stories and two thousand pictures stored in the database with the 10.6.166.5 IP address. I would have to copy and paste all of the data into the phpMyAdmin program or write a PHP script that would automate the process. Is there any benefit to migrating the 10.6.166.5 March, 2007 IP database over to the more recently created 10.6.166.92 IP database? Would it be reasonable to expect the more recently created database to perform better over the next 12 to 18 months than the one created nine months ago?

How To Use A Copy Of A MYSQL 4.1 Database In MYSQL 5 Running On Ubuntu Linux
We had a "permanent world" game server running on an older PC, under Ubuntu 5.10, using a MYSQL 4.1 database to store persistent data for the players, then the hard disk quit. We did back up our data on a regular basis, but didn't use MYSQL to do the backups, we simply copied the MYSQL/data/ folder to disk. So now we have a new hard disk, with Ubuntu 7.10 and MYSQL 5 installed. We have everything working, in that we have created the appropriate database and, using a simple test module of our game which will create some of the tables if they don't exist in the database, we can store and retrieve data from the database tables. The problem we have is how in the world do we get the data from the backup copy of the MYSQL 4.1 created database into the new MYSQL 5 database correctly? With 4.1 we could copy the contents of the database folder right into the database folder in the /var/lib/MYSQL/ folder, but this procedure didn't work with MYSQL 5. The files seemed to copy, as in the copy operation gave no errors, but we get an error that says the database is unavailable and to make sure the MYSQL server is running - it is, so we're stumped, and our game server is offline.

Moving Mysql Database From MAC To Windows
I have to move a database from a MAC with MYSQL to Windows. The MAC has MYSQL 4.0.18 loaded. The phpmyadmin is not working on MAC machine so I tried to just copy the database files to the Windows machine mysql 4.0.21 After this mysql crashes when I try to open the databases with phpmyadmin. A popup window appears and called DBUG Test signal Confirming this message causes mysql to fail. In my phpmyadmin it get the message server not responding. I also tried to recreate the empty tables on the Windows machine and just copy the .MYD and .MYI files into the Windows machine, leaving the .frm files. This worked on some tables but on others I have corrupted data in it and some tables are shown as in use. The MAC mysql database does have 2 files that the Windows doesn't. ._.DS_Store and ._DS_Store. Are the MYSQL files for those 2 system not compatible? If not How can I convert the database files? The database is still working on the MAC so I do not think the database is corrupt.

Linux Server V/s Windows Server ( WebServer - LAMP V/s WAMP)
My client wants to use WAMP ( Windows + apache + MySQL + PHP ). But the site performance is very slow on windows. I dont know the exact reasons. I have seen some benchmark details on internet. But still they are not having concrete facts to support LAMP as a better alternative to WAMP. Allmost all the search done on google melts down to IIS vs Apache, My main concern is "Apache on LINUX" v/s "Apache on Windows" and similarly for PHP/MySQL.

ODBC Connection To MySQL On Shared Hosted Website
I'm trying to connect to a mySQL database that exists in connection w/ my website. I created the database using c-panel. Everything that I use to access the website from my site uses "localhost" as the host name. I installed the ODBC drivers for Windows on my XP machine and am trying to connect from my local machine. I am not sure what I should use for the hostname in that case -- I tried www.mysitename.com as the host but that didn't work. I also tried the IP address, but that didn't work either. I asked my host's support team, but haven't heard back from them yet. It's a shared hosting service. Any ideas on what the hostname should be?

I am trying to get the examples to work (udf_example.so) I have successfully compiled it and copied the resulting .so file to /usr/lib. The command 'crle' (like ldconfig on Linux) shows that /usr/lib is in the library path, but when I type in mysql: CREATE FUNCTION metaphon RETURNS STRING SONAME "udf_example.so" I get the error 1126, Can't open shared library 'udfexample.so' I've tries renaming the library 'libudf_example.so', but that didn't work either.

Replication Using A Shared Fileserver
I thought of a radical way to do replication of MySQL servers. Let's assume two MySQl servers access a shared mapped storage (/mnt/db) which is a local mount to a fileserver on the network. This fileserver is shared between the MySQL servers; which means any writes to /mnt/db appears immediately on /mnt/db on the other MySQL machine. Two MySQL servers may attempt to modify to the same file if we don't use synchronization. My question is, first, can we do this without making patches to MySQL code, and somehow using some synchronization mechanism accross the two machines running MySQL server each. Or we need to patch MySQL code to support such architecture. Second, is it trivial or impossible to do, how much man-time it requires roughly.

Connections On Shared Server
I frequently get the error message: Warning: mysql_connect(): User user1 has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections in /home/.sites/60/site23/web/Connections/mysite.php on line 9 It's commercial web hosting on a shared server so I have no control over the server side of things. The php scripting has been written using the GUI in Dreamweaver. Is there anything I can do to resolve this? Should I be using mysql_connect or mysql_pconnect, or is this not the problem? Do I need to include somewhere in my scripts a snippet which disconnects from the server? If so where would I put this? I am not all that familiar with php and mySQL, though I understand parts of it when looking at the code. The database connection is made via a connection.php file produced by Dreamweaver which includes the database details etc. My max connections are only 10. Is this the issue? It only seems to appear when I use php to edit or add to the mySQL database.
