Recommended System Specs?
I was wondering if anybody could point me to any documentation or could suggest some info on a small MySQL server that I'm setting up.
This will be running Windows and IIS (i know, i know) and be for a maximum of 20 users; nothing special.
Any suggestions for processor and RAM or things to look out for? It will be running the MySQL Community Server 5.0.

Size Of DB In Relation To System Specs
i'm running a server with two dual core processors at 3 Ghz and 8 GB RAM. The size of the MySQL-DB on this server is 1.5 GB. Most of these 1.5 GB (70%) are not processed during normal usage. At the moment everything is running fine, but i'm expecting the DB to grow during the next month, so I ask myself at which size the system speed will start to noticeable slow down.
XML Specs For Database Tables
Is there any program that takes database schema in some decent format like XML (or html or plain-text) and generates the following: 1. C++ classes that represent each table. 2. C++ methods that let me get/set database records of each table.
Effect Of Increased Users On Query Time - Rec Specs
I have just started my first big project and I am having trouble predicting the system specs that will be required. At present during trials the site has around 15 users, although this will go to 350 when it is launched. Most of the pages execution time should not scale with the increase in users but there are a few report pages which calculate and order the information entered by the users. Measuring the page on my development machine (Duron 1.2, 768MB PC133, WinXP, running apache 1.3.22, mysql 4.0.15and php4.3.4)... One page I am currently getting 0.2-0.3 seconds. It uses phplib templates and it executes 9 queries at present, 1 of which I predict will scale. It calculates the mean, standard deviation and total of around 90 measures using results from 15 users. I do have a few nightmare pages for the regular users which execute 150+ queries (mixture of selects and updates). Can anyone predict what will happen with 300+ users? I am thinking max load being 20 regular users logged in with 2 users viewing reports. The machine I am currently looking at is P4 2.4, 512DDR with Linux. Will this be suitable?
Recommended Structure?
Okay before I dive in I just wanted to get some input anyways. I want to have various categories.. unlimited of course I MIGHT use sub-categories... then items under each category. IF i want sub-categories then I will probably want items for categories AND sub-categories If it isn't MUCH harder to accomplish... items appearing under multiple categories...
Recommended Book(s)
What book(s) do you guys recommend I read to start comfortably using mySQL? At my work I've been requested upon to create an inventory system for tracking all the hardware and computer parts we recieve and making sure there's documentation on it. Our budget is tight so I figured that I could use mySQL with PHP Myadmin to design/create the database. What do you guys recommend for this type of task?
Can Anyone Recommended Learning Material?
I am hoping that someone can recommend some learning resource, a book/website/diagram (anything really) to help me with picking up a well rounded overview of as many of the possibilities of MySQL please? As well as perhaps introducing some of the theory and 'best practices' of DB design. I've had a look out there and the amount of information available is vast and somewhat daunting so any advice that can be offered would be greatly appreciated. As far as the level required... i'm a relative beginner to MySQL having only dabbled in single tables and basic php functions, although i'm not a stranger to programming languages in general - so something that provided a quick intro/overview and then progressed relatively swiftly would be OK. (Although despite how it sounds i'm not really picky )
How Many Fields Of A Table Are Recommended?
May be a stupid question, but just want to know, how many fields/columns are recommended ? I know, it depends how many someone needs, but incase if a person needs alot of fields, then for example, is it okay to make 200 fields of a table of mysql database? or its not good to add so many fields ?
Recommended Number Of Queries

Recommended For Moderate Seeking Advanced Skills
I am ok with most queries but looking to advance my skills to advanced level. Most books, it seems, focus on basic skills without much real life queries where there are 7 tables involved to get your data and throw in a LEFT OUTER join on one of those tables and it gets ugly fast. Any real life difficult queries to read and learn or books you would recommend?

Rating System
i want to do a rating system like youtube's where it averages out the total ratings. i'd store each of the ratings per each row and have them seperated by comma's then in my code put them in to an array. i also wanted to store the usernames of the voters in the database in the same fashion (without displaying them though) as above say instead of using cookies (as they can be deleted). would method this be feasible? or would this say overload the database and cause slow down?

System.OutOfMemoryException
sql 2 error: Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown. this is the error I am getting using Mysql connect and Visual Studio. My program is set on a loop and after the program has opened and closed around a million connections in my error logs i see this error about 80 or 90 times then it gives me a timeout error until I stop the loop.

Scoring System
Im sure some of you have come across 'neave' games? The scoring system is setup as below: CREATE TABLE games_pacman ( name VARCHAR(20) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, score INT(11) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, ip VARCHAR(15) ); CREATE TABLE games_banned_ip ( ip VARCHAR(15) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL ); Clearly, it is possible to ban ip addresses from using the score system.

System Configuration
I'm currently rebuilding my home system - a couple of linux boxes with Debian. Although I don't have a high load on any of my systems, I am going to set up a separate box with my mail server and another for my web services.

Heavy Traffic System
I am developing a very heavy traffic site. It may happen that at same time (exactly same) two user will try to register with the same username. What will be the approach to prevent this situation.

Song Request System
I'm new to MySQL and have been racking my brains at this for hours, studying the MySQL documentation, etc, and have given up. All I want is some form of PHP/MySQL integration on my website that allows visitors to Reuqest Songs, and my DJ's be able to view all the reuqests in a page. It'd just involve adding values to a database (song name and song title) then getting a page to query them out and display them again. Would someone be so kind to write me a very very basic script that will do what I require?
Standardized Naming System ?
is there a common naming system for db objects ? Like: 1) Tables: mytable, tblmytable, tbl_mytable 2) Indices: idx_anindex 3) Columns: int_somenumber, date_lastupdate 4) id for the numerical primary key e.g. table customers.id and then for referencing foreign keys table addresses : addresses.customer_id or addresses.customer_fk OK, I know I could name them the way I want but perhaps there is some kind of common sense in this regard ?

Disable Privilege System
If I set skip-networking, what is the security risk if I also skip-grant-tables? Is there any performance benefit that might justify leaving the privilege system disabled? This is a dedicated database that runs on the same machine that hosts the application that it supports.

MySQLdump Crippling System
I'm trying to backup a 3 GB MySQL database on a production web server. I started working on this server the other day and it is quite old and is running ancient packaged in FreeBSD, etc. I also had a look at the backup system and it didn't appear to be working as intended. Can someone with experience just verify for me that I can use mysqldump --flush-logs --all-databases > backup.sql in order to backup all of my databases into that file? And is there a better way of doing this? It seems to take up a lot of system resources on this server.
Operating System Error
I have inherited some linux servers running mysql at my company from a prior administrator and have ran into a few problems. For some reason my mysql server daemon stopped running unexpectedly. I attempted to start the daemon with the mysqld command a recieved the following error. 070917 10:22:33 InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file operation. InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to InnoDB: the directory. InnoDB: File name ./ibdata1 InnoDB: File operation call: 'open'. InnoDB: Cannot continue operation. I also found another command to start the daemon in some sort of safe mode and it shows the followin error: Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql STOPPING server from pid file /var/lib/mysql/mysqlsrvr.pid 070917 10:20:46 mysqld ended I have checked permissions on pretty much every directory I could think of but still I get this error. Can someone please help?
Topic Rating System
I have a rating system on a forum I'm building. Users can rate a topic either good or bad. For each Good rating, one point is added to the topic's score. For every Bad rating, one point is subtracted to the topic's score. Each time a rating is made, several things are inputted into a MySQL table called ratings rating_id rating_date rating_username rating_topic rating_value What I want to be able to do is query this table to grab the highest rated topics and lowest rated topics in a given time period. My MySQL knowledge is pretty limited right now.
