Change The Data Type Of A Column
I am trying to change the data type of a column from datetime to date.

Table Change Log
I want to be able to create a changes log for one of my tables and believe TRIGGERS are the way to go. All the scripts I have seen, record data by having a duplicate of the main tables columns plus extra columns for username & date/time stamp. This would work but my preference is for a smaller changes table which includes the columns user, time stamp and changes. The changes column would be text and would basically be a text string of the changes made. For example, if I altered a column called telephone from 123456 to 654321 then the changes field would be as follows: telephone='654321' if more than one column changed it would be recorded like this telephone='654321',email='me@home.com' I would like the script/function within MYSQL to be expandable without having to rewrite it each time I add an extra column. Something like: for each row for each column if column.old !=column.new then add to changes table

How Do You Change Column Types On A &"SHOW ...&&;quot; Command
I'm accessing MySQL via JDBC and issuing the query "SHOW CREATE TABLE <tablename>" when I get the result set back the columns return are of type VARBINARY (-3) equivalent to the java byte[] type. Question becomes is there a way to have the returned columns for a show command Cast to a VARCHAR or TEXT type at the SQL level? or a way of getting the data using a select statement? I'm trying to keep my java code that gets the results decoupled from the code that submits the query so I don't want to have somenthing like "If the SQL starts with SHOW and the database engine is MYSQL and if the Return type is VARBINARY then convert it to a String type.

Table Name Case Change After Indexing On Mac OS X
I have a Java Servlet-driven web app that makes calls to a MySQL 4 database running on Solaris. Since setting it up I have done development on Mac OS X because it is convenient to do this at home on my laptop and I had no trouble uploading mysqldumps developed at home. My SQL skills are pretty basic, and it was only recently because of poor performance I followed the instructions in the O'Reilly book for doing an "explain" and finding fields to index. I did this on my Mac and it worked well, but I noticed that after indexing that the table names (which had been in CamelCase) had been changed to lower case! This happened on two tables. Should this happen? If so, why? I have been unable to rename the tables, although previously I have done this for misspelled table names. I (now) realize that - other than the problem of unreadability - this doesn't matter on the Mac, for although the BSD Unix that Mac uses is case-sensitive, Mac OS X MySQL, for some unknown reason isn't (although it sorts table-names in a non-Mac unix-like manner putting capitalized words before uncapitalized words). However, if I upload this to my Sun box running Solaris, it will screw up all the Servlet calls to those tables. What I have done is to edit a mysqldump file to restore the CamelCase by a global search and replace, and then used the dump to regenerate the database. Is there any reason why I shouldn't have done this? Will it affect the indexing? Is this "feature" present on later versions of MySQL? How should I proceed to prevent this happening in future?

Change Index Using Alter Table
ALTER TABLE tmp_fund_load ADD CONSTRAINT tmp_fund_load_pkey PRIMARY KEY ( t_unit_price_date, t_fund_ref, t_term ) DISABLE; The above statement adds primary index on three fields. But the index is disabled. What is the effect of keyword disable here? ALTER TABLE tmp_fund_load MODIFY PRIMARY KEY USING INDEX tmp_fund_load_pkey ENABLE; After that the index is enabled using above statement. What would be the effect of enable keyword here.

Delete /Change Localhost For Root In User Table
I have updated my Host-Information for root in the users table - and guess what happened - I can't login with root anymore. What is more - I took as update address something like http://serverbla.com. So guess what, I can't login because of the protocol information. Since I have a webshop installed on the machine I would like to reset only this information. Is there any chance to do that without crashing the webshop?

Disrupted Sequence
Another brainteaser: CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `test` ( `id` INT(11) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `cid` VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL, `item` VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL, `val` INT(11) NOT NULL, `dt` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00', PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 In the above example table I need to find the first 5 highest values of val that break the sequential set of values. In other words: say I have values 49,48,45,44,43,40,39,37,36,34 of val in my table, with 49 being the highest value of val (need to sorted first, because values may randomly be dispersed in my table), then I want to get 47,46,42,41,38 as the query result.

Create A Sequence?
I am creating an application that will contain three tables that need to share the same sequence. Upon digging through the docs, I do not see how I could do this. Could someone give me some guidance into this? Also, As I read the docs, when I am creating tables, there is something about an InnoDB? Sorry to be confused, but I am not sure how to begin creating my database, nor tables without this knowledge.

What Collation Sequence?
I've just transferred a small PHP/MySQL application from a Firepages phpdev5 install to an XAMPP install, so I've got new versions of everything. I used phpMyAdmin to export and import the tables of the database. When recreating the database on my new install I selected the default collation (latin1_general_ci) but my application is now displaying ? in place of a number of characters so I guess I got it wrong. I can't see where in the old phpMyAdmin (2.3.0-rc3) to determine what collation the database uses.

I ask because I'm looking into Java EJB3 which describes support for any of the above (as well as AUTO_INCREMENT, so I'm not out of luck completely).

How To Create A Sequence In MySQL
I am not able to create a sequence in MYSQL 5.0 Want help on creating the same. Basically, what I am looking for is, that I should get a number greater that the last one on every call to this sequence. In Oracle, one can simply write something like:- CREATE SEQUENCE seq_ordermaster increment by 1 start with 1 maxvalue 999999minvalue 1 nocache Nocycle; And while calling, one can use it by selecting seq_ordermaster.nextval from DUAL Considering the fact that there is no DUAL table in MySQL, how can One write such a sequence and also, how one can get the next value on each select statement?

Mysql Execution Sequence
I need to retrieve the last value from a column in a mysql table, perform some actions on it, then add 1 to the original value and store a new entry. I am worried that if multiple users access the database at the same time I will end up with duplicated 'new values'. Does mysql complete execution of a script before it allows access to another user or do I need to 'lock' the table in some way while the script executes?
