MYSQL :: MySQL Slow: Configuration To Blame/fix?

Configuration Of MySQL
Everytime I start a new session of MySQL, it prompts me for my password and then boots me out. After I go through the "MySQL Server Instance Config Wizard" and reconfigure everything and reset my password, MySQL lets me back in. Is there anyway to fix it so I don't have to reconfigure everything?

MySQL Server Configuration
The server is running Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition and IIS 6.0

I have installed MySQL successfuly but run into problems when configuring it. I get all the way to the Start Server page and click execute.
When I do this I get a tick in the Prepare COnfig and Write Config File boxes but then when it tries to start the server it comes up with the error:

Problem With MySQL Configuration On IIS With PHP
Everytime I try to read from any MySql database in PHP, I get a blank screen or just a blank response.

I dunno what the problem is. is it the configuration?

When i use phpinfo(), MySql has its own section, which is shown. doesn't this mean it has been configured already?

I have done the configuration of the php.ini file and have removed the quotes before the mysql extensions. I have also included my c:php directory to the path section of my environment variables in control panel and copied libmysql.dll to my windows directory. I just can't seem to get around this problem.

I don't think its my code because i have literally copied code listings from this site and pasted them as trials but still the same thing.

I would appreciate something like a checklist for configuring mysql to work with iis and php to confirm my configuration.

PHP5 MySql 4.1 IIS 5.O Configuration Error.
Finally, I decided to go fully into PHP. I downloaded PHP 5 on the PHP site. I also downloaded MySQL 4.1. I'm running IIS on a WinXP professional (SP2) machine. I installed both according to instructions. Tested PHP, it worked fine. Tested MySQL through command prompt and it also worked fine.

MySQL 4.0.18 InnoDB Configuration Issues On SuSE 9.1 Pro
I've tried resolving this issue in a SuSE newsgroup, but after trying
their suggestions and working on this issue for far too long already, I
decided to try this list as it may be a more appropriate discussion area.

I've installed and configured MySQL 4.0.18 on a SuSE 9.1 system using
the default RPM's that came with the distribution.

I created a simple database (one table with InnoDB engine type) and have
tried running some ODBC source against it to test transactions, but I
get the error that the server does not have transactions enabled.
I was directed to enable transactions in the configuration file
(/etc/my.cnf) by uncommenting the lines for innoDb use. However, after
uncommenting these lines and running mysqld from the commandline
(according the online Manual), to generate InnoDB support tables, I get
the following error:

mysqld: ERROR: unknown variable 'innodb_data_home_dir=/var/lib/mysql/'

I've tried removing the RPM's and starting from scratch, but cannot get
past this error and successfully test transactions in my unit tests.

MySQL Server Instance Configuration Installation
Hi everyone. I just tried installing MySQL Community Edition, but it has frozen up during the final step (MySQL Server Instance Configuration). I'm installing it on Windows XP, and I used all the default settings, except that I changed "Detailed Configuration" to "Standard Configuration". The installation window now says "Not Responding" and I don't know what to do. I guess if I shut it down manually, MySQL won't be configured properly. I don't know if this will corrupt the installation, or if the installation part has already finished.

Configuration Of MySQL - ORDER BY Clause Problems
Edit:
Solved! Single quotes around the column name were the problem... red herring... didn't spawn an error, probably because single quotes would be valid for an alias?

Anyway, for reference there must be a MySQL setting that tells MySQL to ignore the single quotes in an ORDER BY clause and call the column if there's no matching alias. If anyone knows what *that* setting is, I'm still interested...

I'm stumped! A simple PHP application with a filter using ORDER BY has been moved from a remote server on to a local Debian (Etch) machine running XAMPP. On the remote server it worked fine. On the local server the ORDER BY is ignored. It looks like this:

SELECT *
FROM contacts
WHERE Forenames REGEXP '^{name}'
ORDER BY '{column_name}'
Where {name} is user entered data and {column_name} is determined by which column header in the returned data was clicked in the interface. For example:

SELECT *
FROM contacts
WHERE Forenames REGEXP '^Jake'
ORDER BY 'Company'
As I say, this *was* fine... but now on the local machine the ORDER BY is totally ignored by MySQL. I know the problem is with MySQL because I get the same result in the MySQL Query Analyser, so it's not a PHP/Apache issue.

Is there a config option for switching ORDER BY on/off like there is in MS Access? I'm 99% sure this is a MySQL config problem...

MySQL Entry Level Server Hardware Configuration
We have a web site statistics database running on a dedicated PC (P4 1GB RAM, 1xSATA, Windows Xp 32 bit). It's updated daily and used by a single user to get some reports. While it's mostly SELECTs, some temporary tables can be built.

As the database get bigger and bigger (few gigabytes), it works slower and slower. Currently the HDD is the bottleneck, but the PC is not upgradeable, so I'll have to build a new server. Reliability is NOT #1 in my list, while the speed is - it'd be easier (and chipper) for me to copy the data across rather than to build a 4+ dsik monsters.

What would be the suggestions for hardware and OS? Or may be a URL to detailed review?

Slow MySQL
mySQL has been running very slowly and I am getting errors. First I did 2 things I raised the ServerLimit number (apache) to allow for more connections, I also raised the max conncetions in my.cnf. I do not know if this took effect? That should have worked. But basically in phpmyadmin i get this error frequently. I am getting more traffic so I think it is that.

MySQL Slow
I had downloaded a few years back mySQL v3.51 installed but never used it. Now I wanted to convert some B-TREE databases to mySQL and did some testing via ODBC to insert 70,000 records: My results:

MS ACCESS: ~60,000 msecs
MYSQL v3.51 ~18,000 msecs

Impressed with the speed, I went ahead and got the latest MySQL v5.1. Uninstalled the older version, I had nothing there to preserve, so I did a simple new install with MySQL v5.1. I noticed the size of the files and BINEXE increasted by 1,000,000%. Ok, Bulky. Not a problem.

I reran the same ODBC test, and now I got:

MYSQL v5.1: ~450,000 msecs or 7.5 freaking MINUTES!

What the hell happen? Nothing was done. I'm knew to MYSQL. I just installed it with all the defaults. I did choose "developer's machine" for the "optimizer wizard"

I can't redistribute MYSQL v3.51 and force it down people's throats! I have to use what they are using already, if already installed. Not even my current system takes 1 minute to add 70,000 records. Why 7.5 minutes? All it is simple inserts/free statements.

MySQL Slow In Windows NT4
I am running the Apache web server, MySQL v4, and PHP on an NT4 server.

MySQL Slow Starting Up
I am using a Windows 2003 Web Edition Server running IIS and MySQL 4.1. I had to restart the server the other day and it took MySQL almost 2 hours to come back up. I was watching it on my task manager and it went up to approximately 60,000k in 10k increments before I was able to access MySQL.

My CPU usage was hovering around 3% all this time. Everything else came up on the server just fine. This happens every time I have to restart my server. The reason I have to restart my server most of the time, is because MySQL locks up on me.

Is there any settings I can change that would help me here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One more thing to add. I am using the default my.ini file. We have almost 100 different databases on the server and have around 20000 tables within all of these databases combined. All of these tables are InnoDB tables.

Pretty much it hangs. I tried to connect with QueryBrower, did a Select Count(*) and just froze. I admit that I didn't wait for ever, yes I know I Select Count(*) takes a long time but I gave up after waiting 3x as long as I normal did. Also the logs screen froze in administrator.

Slow Running MySQL?
I'm hoping someone may have an idea what could be causing the slow loading pages of my web-site. I'm not positive, but I'm relatively sure that it's related to a problem with MySQL database.

I purchased a program called Sam3 for broadcasting our radio signal over the internet. The software requires the use of MySql in order to set up web pages for our web site.

The problem is, that while everything works GREAT (requests can be made from the site, songs can be searched, the history of what we've played shows up) the pages load PAINFULLY slow. Other users of this software have had no such problems so I'm at a loss.

I know from testing that the PHP script for the web pages is fine, I have plenty of bandwith both upload and download available on my DSL line, and while the computer running MySQL is behind a router I have tried plugging the DSL line DIRECTLY into the host computer and it makes no difference.

For all appearances it seems the problem is that it takes MySQL forever to gather and provide the information needed for these pages. Does anyone have any idea what I should be looking at to solve this problem?

I do not know the MySQL program at all, so I get somewhat lost when people start throwing out technical terms, but this has been really frustrating because no one else seems to have the problem and everyone so far has just told me to check the things I've already checked.

MySQL Connection Sometimes Slow
I have been developing an application in Visual Basic that accesses a MySQL database either on the local machine, or a remote machine. Locally, database connections run smoothly. However, when I try to connect to the remote system (another computer on my local network) some databases take longer to connect than others (sometimes 10 - 20 seconds).

The application usses the myvbql.dll (sorry lost the link, found it through google) wrapper around the libmysql.dll file to perform database actions. The application seems to hang when it tries to actually make the connection to the datatbase. This is only happening on the remote database server, and does not happen on every connection to that server.

Slow Remote MySql
We have a local (client) machine that runs a php application on windows using apache, the database for this application is on a remote server, which the client machine connects to via the servers ip number and the server accepts the connection from the client via the designated ip address (skip-resolve-address is set in MySql server and no dns addresses are used, only ip).

However, the php application when dealing with the data from the MySql server is still pretty slow. We've tried query cache, but still slow.

When I say slow, I mean page response and reloads take about 5 or 6 seconds. Is this expected from a remote server and using apache as we do for this application? When using a local MySql server the speed is pretty much instantaneous, but we need the remote server!

Also, in testing the remote MySql server with a program such as SQLyog, response to requests are very quick and queries take no time.

How could we go about testing for where the bottleneck is? Could it be apache and php (and where do we start looking for the problem? Local MySql server is nice and fast)?

Delay, Latency, Slow Mysql
I recently upgraded mysql from 3.23 to 4.0 and found that my websites using the mysql db had a 5 second delay, or latency. I searched for 2 days and found no answer to my latency problem until just a moment ago. I'd like to share the answer in case someone else finds this occurring to them as well.

I was using my real static ip in my website mysql address instead of 'localhost', localhost should have been used initially anyways. I am not real sure what my reasoning was when I initially chose to put in my static IP.

So, If you are like me and keep your stuff on your local machine, use 'localhost' instead of your static IP. At least it fixed my delay issues.

Remote MySQL Connection Slow
I have a website on a dedicated server that was running really slow, so I got another, much faster server and transferred the MySQL database to this server. However, now when I connect to the faster server's database using the slower server's PHP web pages, the overall page loads much slower than when the database was on the slower server.

Any ideas why this would be? Right now the host name is just an IP address. Does it need an actual resolved hostname to be fast? MySQL on the faster server is supposedly tweaked for fast service (my-huge.cnf).

Slow Performance After Falling Back To MySQL 3
Yesterday I have upgraded my linux box with a pair of Xeon 1G CPU and
reinstalled everything (it was a sinle Xeon 700). The default RH9
installation comes with MySQL 3.23.54. After the reinstallation I
found the machine was not as responsive as before. (It's not very
slow, but some lagging is noticed)

I was running Mysql-max 4.0.11 and the performance was ok, except the
slowness during the peak hours, which was regarded as normal. I would
like to know the differences between Mysql 3 and 4. Is the new version
making a significant jump in performance?

I also noticed the system eats up memory faster than before. With the
old setting the system never used up 60% of physical memory, even at
extremely high loading (30+). Now it easily used up 70% of memory.

MySQL Timing Out? Really Slow Queries, Already Indexed.
For whatever reason, MySQL does not seem to be executing. So, I ran a few stat functions and here is what I got:

Uptime: 220372
Threads: 39
Questions: 18748899
Slow queries: 808
Opens: 28723
Flush tables: 1
Open tables: 4096
Queries per second avg: 85.078

The "open tables" worries me for a few reasons. First, because it is 4kb (exactly, since it is divisible by 1024, evenly). This makes me think that maybe I am hitting a ceiling.

Second, there are a few variables in MySQL that equal this, and maybe it's a cap on something. Here are the variables that equal 4096:
query_cache_min_res_unit = 4096
table_cache = 4096
transaction_prealloc_size = 4096

Do any of those have anything to do with this? Am I even close? Are any of those values from mysql_stat a big deal?

We have been getting lately very bad performance on our server, especially related to MySQL. One issue is that we need to focus a lot of attention on optomization of our SQL quieries, but we are planning a server upgrade.
Now my question is not only for the MySQL experts, but focused on them, what is the best setup for running application intensive sites.
Is it a server with powerful processing and memory such like dual Xeon and 2GB memory or is there another configuration like two servers? What are the idealistic and realistic setups that are available?
