MYSQL :: Raw Partition With InnoDB On Windows 2000

MySQL On Windows 2000
I am migrating my web enabled Access dbs to MySQL.
I am using ASP on my development machine running Win 2000 professional with IIS and MySQL.When I attempt to run queries on my development machine, against the MySQL databases they run like a dog!! My Access databases flew compared to MySQL. I'm not expecting blistering performance, but it's taking minutes to access tables with under 20 rows.However, when I upload to my hosting company, everything is fine.
Can anyone give my ideas how I can tune my developmet machine speed up the queries?

Can Run Two Versions Of MySQL In Windows 2000?
I have been running 4.0.13 for several weeks now and though I'd like to =
test 4.1.0. 4.0.13 is under c:MySQL. I downloaded 4.1.0 under c:4.1 =
AlphaMySQL. When I try to launch mysql it brings me to the old =
version, how do I access the new one without killing the old one? (I =
have also tried putting 4.1.0 on a totally different machine and linking =
to it also.)

5.0 Security On Windows 2000 Best Practices
Does anyone know of a set of standards for securing MYsql 5.0 on Windows
2000? I already saw the document on mysql.com's website at
http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources...ql_windows.html,
but something that is missing is precisely what are the minimum
permissions needed for the server? Specifically, which directories need
which access rights?

MySQL On Windows 2000 Server
I want to install MySQL on to a Windows 2000 Server, I also want to remotely manage it using MySQL administrator, so connecting to the server using its IP Adderss, On windows workstations if you try and connect to the MySQL database from a remote mechine it does not allow you to do it (I have disabled all firewall's etc.).
Do you have to install a server version and not LOCAL version of the MySQL server?

How To Copy InnoDB From Linux To Windows
I am trying to copy an InnoDB Database (mysql) from a linux system to a Windows XP machine.. I copied the files under /mysql/data/mydatabase/ files to the same one on my windows machine, and I copied anotehr 3 files from the the /data folder which I read about in mysql.com (indata1, and two log files)...

All the database worked expect for the child tables (that has relation with other tables)..

Did I do anything wrong, or is there another way to transfer the database..

Custom InnoDB Table Space In Windows
In Windows, there are lots of config files for MySQL. When installing MySQL, the config wizard created a single, autoextending ibdata1 file for InnoDB tablespace. However, I want to customize the tablespace. Instead of

innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend

I would like to have something like this

innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:650M;ibdata2:650M;ibdata3:650M

But when I make this change in the file my-innodb-heavy-4G.ini the server fails to start. How can I change the default config for InnoDB and customize it to my needs?

Partition
I want to partition my table in 3 partitions such that the first partition contains for the last 15 days, the second contain data for 16-90 days and the third partition contains data beyond 90 days. I understand that I need to periodically move data between the partitions. Is there any way in mysql that I can do it. Also, I am writing the following syntax to create partitions, but its not working

CREATE TABLE tbl_history(
id VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
timestamp DATETIME NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY(id, timestamp)
)
TYPE=InnoDB
PARTITION BY RANGE(TO_DAYS(CURDATE())-TO_DAYS(timestamp))
(PARTITION P0 VALUES LESS THAN(16),
PARTITION P1 VALUES LESS THAN(91),
PARTITION P2 VALUES LESS THAN MAXVALUE )
;
Whenever I execute this statement I get 'ERROR 1064 (42000): Constant/Random expression in (sub)partitioning function is
not allowed near ')'

MySQL, Partition Out Of Space
I admin a small server for students of my major and recently we've been getting a lot more popular. We are already in the process of upgrading to better hardware by January but a problem has arisen that we need a temporary fix until then.

our root partition, because the guy before me made it 100meg insize, is at 100% usage. This is causing mySQL to refuse to run for our clients because it has no room. Since I'm assuming we can't repartition it without starting over, the best thing I can think of is to move mySQL to another partition. My question is two fold:

1) where the bloody hell IS mySQL? I can't find it, or I don't know what I'm looking for either. I've been told /databases is not it.

2) How, exactly, do I move mySQL safely and have it work properly afterwards?

I appreciate any help you can give me. We are running Debian Potato with MySQL 3.23.54. Also have phpMyAdmin if that means anything. Here's a paste of the df:

Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 120979 114733 0 100% /
/dev/sda5 2402848 2110956 169832 93% /usr
/dev/sda6 483930 301713 157233 66% /var

MYSQL Partition A Table
1. It is possible to partition a table which contains 100 million of records based on duplicate ID?
2. If partition help to improve speed of INNER join?

SQL 7 To MSDE 2000
I would like to upgrade a machine from SQL 7 to MSDE 2000. I would like to keep the existing database from Altiris Deployment solutions intact. Is this upgrade possible?

SQL Server 2000
I'm trying to do an export from an SQL Server 2000 Database to and ODBC driver pointed to a mySQL Server Database. The export works if there is at least one record in the mySQL table. If the mySQL table is empty it gives an error that looks like this:

Insert error, column 1 ('field1', DBTYPE_STR), status 6: Data overflow.

The strange part is that the export works perfectly fine as long as there is one record in the mySQL table, if there are no records in the table, I get the error above

SQLServer 2000 Conversion
I have a web app that uses SQLServer 2000. I am switching to MySQL 4.

1.1. I have re-created all the tables but I'm running into 2 problems.

1. In SQLServer I can create a date field and as the default value I

can use a macro/function to have it set the default. I have not seen

an equivalent in MySQL. After doing some research I have seen only

two possible solutions:

a) Use timestamp. This is not suitable because it has a tendency to

auto update and it's more trouble than it's worth to use a field that

does this when you know it should never really change.

b) Use datetime and just insert the time in. This option will
require

me to mess in the web app and go through and change SQL which I

really would rather not have to do but will as a very last resort. I

prefer the database to handle this sort of thing.

So am I missing something? Or does MySQL simply not support using

macros or functions as default values like SQLServer does?

2. Second problem may not be MySQL. I use Naicat and I created a

varchar field with a length of 2. When I saved the table it was

converted to a char of length 2. This was not cool because the two

are not equivalent. I don't care how much faster char is. So my

question is, is there something in MySQL that doesn't allow varchars

of length < 4 or is this a Navcat thing?

How Much Is MYSQL? Does It Run On Win 2000 Server?
How much is MYSQL?

Does it run on Win 2000 server?

Does it have reliable ODBC drivers?

Has anyone reliably used it with a Powerbuilder application?

I tried looking for a FAQ (didnt see one) and doing a keyword search.. a lot of hits - to many threads to digest.

Access 2000 As Frontend
I know this is an 'old chestnut', but I have been trying to add an ODBC connector for MySQL frpm mysql.com. It downloaded and installed correctly, but when I came to configure it, the dialogue looked different from the picture on mysql.com help page. I figured it had just changed and made a best guess of what went in which text box.

Thing is, whenever I try to test the connection, I get an error message;

[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]Access denied for user: 'dbusername@my fixed ip address' (Using password:YES)

I am assuming it got through to the MySQL database and was denied access because it had my fixed ip address attached, rather than say, localhost? Is it a config problem or have I missed something?

Mysql Crash On Win 2000
I have latest mysql version 5.0.2 alpha installed on my windows 2000 machine. Now there is bug in the version, which causes the server to crash everytime I try to use any mysql client like phpmyadmin, mysql query browser. The only possible way of accessing the database for now is only through the command prompt and not theough any other client. This bug has already been reported to mysql. But it appears they have fixed in the cvs. But as of now there is no binary patch for windows. Anyone got any ideas on how do I tackle this one without having to change my version.

MySQL Script And SQL 2000
I have a MySQL script which contains scripts to create tables and insert data. I would like to re-create those tables and insert those data in Microsoft SQL 2000. What would be the best way to do that?

MySQL + SQL Server 2000 Both Running On XP Pro?
I've had mysql on my machine plenty of times with no trouble currently i have SQL Server 2000 Trial running but never both at once. Unfortunately i have to have them both on at the moment.

So before i install and mess everything up, Does anyone here have this setup?

I basically want to get php/mySQL/MSSQL running with IIS

App In Server 2000 Connect To MySQL - MAC
I am absolutely new to MySQL. I came across the need to look at MySQL from an application I was developing using REALbasic.

Here is the system:

An MS 2000 Server with an application that needs to connect to a SQL database.
A MAC OSX 10.4.7 PPC G4 running MySQL mysql-max-5.0.24a-osx10.4-powerpc.pkg.

What I can do:

I can connect to the MySQL table using the data app in REALbasic on the MAC and make changes etc.

What I need to do:

I need to create a DSN to allow the App on the 2000 server to connect to the MySQL server table on the MAC to make changes etc.

How can I accomplish this?

Probs With MSSQL Server 2000
Well i have installed MSSQL server 2000 on my PC(OS:XP Prof). And the server does run as well as the agent. I know how to use the registration wizard of SQL server 2000, cause untill i sucessfully complete the registration process i woun't be able to create a database OR use the query analyser.

I know how to access the registration wizard, but i at last it gives me an error saying"access not granted, unsucessfull registration" **** like that.
:confused:

And i am using the same PC as the server as well as client.

Communication Between MySQL And SQL Server 2000.
Is there an established (third party software for instance) means to allow communication between MySQL and SQL Server?

For instance, SQL Server has a replication service that allows a database to be kept in sync with another one (SQL Server to SQL Server). Does anyone know if such a thing exists for SQL Server to MySQL and MySQL to SQL Server?

#2000 - Unknown MySQL Error
I'm using my SQL via one of SBC yahoo's packaged deals for web access.

Everything had been going along smoothly...until today.

Under PHPMYADMIN...privileges I started seeing the following msg:

Warning: Your privilege table structure seem to be older than
this MySQL version!
Please run the script mysql_fix_privilege_tables that should be included in your MySQL server distribution to solve this problem!

Whatever SQL statement I try to run (a select, alter, update etc etc) I get the #2000 - Unknown MySQL error msg. So I can't run the script mentioned in the error msg since it won't get past the very 1st alter statement.

I'm not sure what went wrong but I can't even "reload mysql" - I just keep getting the "Uknown" msg.

With the exception of the "mysql" database, all of my other databases show a dash sign instead of the number of tables (in the PhpMyAdmin drop down. I can't even click on one of them without getting the "uknown" msg.

Connecting To Mysql From MSAccess 2000
I've set up a ODBC DSN to connect to Mysql. This DSN works fine with MS =
Excel. However, it returned the following error when I tried to link =

Open And Close Time 2000 Kills The Connection
I am moving some data from a text file into mysql and my code in c# using ODBC fails.

Actually I created a loop to test mysql and realized that mysql goes banans when

for(int i=0; i < 5000; i++) {
connection.Open();
connection.Close();
}

This code is for illustration purposes ONLY but it should work!? When I reache around 2000 the connection.Open() loses the connection to localhost and terminates the program! After a minute I can get access to mysql again? Inserting a delay of 100ms seems to keep things going.

Exporting Binary Data From Access 2000 Into MySQL 4.1.5 Gamma
I'm trying to export a pictures table, my mySQL database table already
exists so I have linked both tables in Access and I tried to run a
simple append query in Access to export the data but I either :

- lose the connection to mySQL
- have packets that exceed max_allow_packet

I have tried different things to set max_allow_packet to a higher
value which seems to be 1M by default. I want it to be 1G like setting
the value at run-time from the prompt but it seems that no matter what
I tried, I either get the syntax wrong or the command is simply
ignored.

I have also added in my.cnf, the following lines :

SQL Server 2000 To MySQL Server

QNX To Windows
I have a MySQL database configured on a Windows machine and I need to connect into that machine from a QNX machine. Does anyone know if there is available a MySQL connection driver for QNX? I haven't found anything in the web site.

Windows XP
I just installed MySQL on Windows XP.

I have the most basic questions:
1] How do I start and stop MySQL.
2] How do I connect.
3] How do I create a user, set password and privaledges.
4] How do I create a table, set column, set column attributes.

Basically, is their any tutorial for the absolute beginner in MySQL on Windows XP.

UDF On Windows
Does anyone have a windows version of MyXML? Or hints to compile it? Quote: About MyXML is an UDF extension to the MySQL database. It provides a set of utilities to make generating XML from the database a simple task. It provides routines to encode XML, create tags and return entire queries in XML.

Windows GUI
Does anyone know how to read SLAVE STATUS and other mysql monitor results within a Windows Program? Is there a way to execute MySql commands within Visual Basic?

Windows Box
I am trying to connect from a windows box to a mysql database that is on
a unix box and it's coming back with an error. this is via a migration
wizard. I decided to install mysql client on the windows box and start
mysql and see if I will be able to connect to the database. I have
downloaded the code but I don't know how to go from there

Windows UDF
Just a warning - there is currently a worm doing the rounds attacking MySQL servers running on Windows. Linux / *BSD / OSX are not affected.
It doesn't exploit any MySQL security holes, but attempts to brute force the password. Once in it installs a bot (W00t bot), and connects to a number of IRC channels, advertises it's presence and recieves IP subnets to attack.
Solution:
1) Use a STRONG root password. 'root', 'mysql' or 'secret' doesn't cut it.
2) Limit root connects to certain IP addresses (ONLY 'localhost' is the best). Don't let root connect from '%'.
3) MySQL should RARELY be exposed to the network. Use a firewall and MySQL's skip-networking command.

Mysqlclient On Windows
I'm using the command line client for mysql quite a lot on windows, and it really annoys me that I can't use tabstop to complete table/column names, like I can on our *nix machines. Is there something obvious I'm missing (like a config setting somewhere) or is this just the curse of using Windows, which I must learn to live with?

Windows Vs Linux
We currently run our MySQL on linux. Could someone advise me on the watch outs on moving MySQL to windows and also if there is any performance loss as a result?

Install On Windows XP
I cant get mysql to run on my winXP computer. I have downloaded it and
installed , unzipped and run setup.exe and placed it in c:mysql.
I type the command to start the mysql server
c:mysqli mysqld --console

It opens the console and then the console shows some inoDB commands and the
console hangs.

I followed the mysql manual and i cant find the answer
there is no command prompt and nothing...how do I run mysql?

Getting Started With 4.1 On Windows Xp Sp2
Has anyone had a problem trying to start the service ?? for some reason it will not let me start up the service and gives me an error message of " server could not be started ". I am running this on my desktop which is a fairly high end machine with a gig of ram P4 3.4, 40 gigs of free space.

Versions Of AMP On Windows?
I am somewhat concerned that i have the right versions
of AMP on my Win XP system so it will all work together...
Is there some link that (in simple terms!) tells which versions are safe
together?

I currently have MySQL version 4.0.20d, with Apache 2.0.52 and php
4.3.10. Is this the best combination?

From Windows To Linux
I've got a production MySQL database running on a Linux server, but do my development on a Windows laptop.

I recently overhauled an existing app and needed to write data conversion routines in order for my existing data to map to some new data layouts.

I'm running the conversion on my laptop, so I don't mess up the existing production data. I will be running some tests in parallel before going live with the new app.

When I run the conversion, Windows sets all the table names to all lower case. So when I load the data to my Linux box, the table names are all wrong.

Is there anyway to force MySQL to maintain it's case on a Windows machine so that I don't have discrepancies from one OS to another?

Two Windows Problems
When I try to transfer data to the sampdb by using the < sign
i.e mysql> sampdb < insert_student.sql

I get an error.

Question one, what am i doing wong, source insert_student.sql works.

The windows dos window is only a few inches wide and I cannot
read the entire error message. How do I get te dos window open
all the way? The little square button in the upper right doesn't do
anything at all.

MySQL On Windows
I downloaded and installed MySQL for Windows this morning, V4.1. =
Unzipped, installed and started the server as a service, no problems. =
Installed the ODBC driver. A-OK

But, the DOC tells me I have to run "mysql_install_db.sh". So, the =
question is, how am I supposed to run shell scripts on Windows?

Mysql 4.0.20a For Windows
i installed just a few days ago the new my sql 4.0.20a server on a Windows Machine

and heart about that the feature "auto_increment = default value" will work now

now i created a new table added some fields and one field shoud be auto_increment and shoud have a default value (which means, mysql shoud then auto_increment up from the given value), but this doesn't work

i can only choose between default value or auto_increment but not both any ideas ?

MySQL 4 And Windows XP
I am having problems running mysql 4 on windows xp. Mysql 3 works fine.
However version 4 won't run. Even if I start the server with the admin panel
it shuts down again after a couple of seconds. This has only been a problem
since I wiped my hard drive and did a clean install of everything.
