MYSQL :: Request Tracker System

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?

Eventum Bug Tracker
1.HOw can i perform a search across all projects that are available?
2.How do i move issues from one project to another?

MySQL Table Design For Web Tracker
I'm currenty writing a PHP based tracking script and was wondering about an expedient mysql table design. My experiences with mysql are not as good as with PHP at all, so I need a little help.

The main problem is performance, so you may already asume that I'm not looking for poorly conceived table structures but some kind of denormalized ones, in order to improve the performance.

So whats the best way to store the logged information? What you see here is the db structure from phpOpenTracker and that exactly is the way it shouldn't be.
This normalized schema is horrible slow if you have to evaluate a lot of data.

I know a lot about application design but not about db design, so it would be great if anyone could give me some approaches and/or examples.

Request Help For Subquery
I have a table that records targets and the time it appears on a
display. What I would like to do is to report the time difference for
each individual target from the initial appearance to the subsequent
one, and the time difference from the subsequent one to the next, and
so on.

So how do I put these these all together to produce one query:

for each "select distinct target from display"
for number of rows -1 with target
"select timeX - timeY from (subquery for distinct target) where
(X,Y = subsequent, initial times)"

Request Error
this is my mysql query:

$requete1= " SELECT DISTINCT mariages.* FROM mariages, ";
$requete1.= " articles_a_offrir AS A1 INNER JOIN articles_a_offrir AS A2 ";
$requete1.= " ON (A1.id_mariage=A2.id_mariage) WHERE ";
$requete1.= " ((mariages.id_mariage=A1.id_mariage) ";
$requete1.= " AND (mariages.pren_epouse='$prenom_epouse') AND ";
$requete1.= "(mariages.nom_epouse='$nom_epouse')) ";
$requete1.= " OR ((mariages.nom_mari='$nom_mari') ";
$requete1.= " AND (mariages.pren_mari='$prenom_mari')) ";
$requete1.= " OR ((DAYOFMONTH(mariages.date_du_mariage)='$jour') ";
$requete1.= " AND (MONTH(mariages.date_du_mariage)='$mois') ";
$requete1.= " AND (YEAR(mariages.date_du_mariage)='$annee')); ";

but i would like it to display only one wedding even if the family name of somebody exists for two differnet people with a different first name

Exclusiv Request
I'd like to select ID's from a table wich are not in another table:

| TABLE1.ID | TABLE2.ID |
|--------------------------------|
| 1 | 1 |
| 5 | 5 |
| 7 | |
| 8 | |

So, the result of my SELECT should be: 7, 8.

Request Modelling
I would like to list all courses with have less than lets say 10 participants.
Does anybody know how I would have to modify the code below to get this to
work ?

schedule_id is the course itself

SELECT schedule_id,count(schedule_id) FROM attendance WHERE
count(schedule_id)<10 GROUP BY schedule_id ;

My problem is that I would need to use the count function actually within the
WHERE (clause which is not allowed).

Enhancment Request
How does one go about submitting an official MySQL enhancement request?

I am in the process of trying to certify our product (WebLogic Portal) for MySQL and have run into the following in several places ...
database error code [1,093] SQL state [HY000] 2263.; nested exception is: java.sql.SQLException: You can't specify target table 'xxx' for update in FROM clause

The fact that this SQL works just fine for FIVE other currently supported DATABASES but that we will have to change it to make it to work with MySQL is quite an annoyance. As best as I can tell, we won't even be able to use the same SQL for MySQL as we do for other databases so the code will have to look at what DB the app is configured for and choose the appropriate SQL.

Request | Username
I didn't found a good example to set the three % to single variable characters...

My sql string =
SELECT * FROM table
WHERE username LIKE '".$_SESSION['user'] &&& $_SESSION['domain']."' ORDER BY username ASC LIMIT $current_page, $results_per_site");

Password Request
I just recently downloaded the community version of MySQL 5.0. I'm trying to set it up using the Config wizard. A while ago I asked how I go about getting or finding out what my root password is so I can proceed with the set up. I was told to set up my password using the command line.I was also told to log in as root and issue the command

SET PASSWORD ('[new password]');

When I open Command line it automatically asks for my password. Since I don't have one yet I tried to ignore the request by typing the info. above and it won't let me in. Is there another way for me to set up my password using command line?
I also don't understand how to log in as root.

Baffled By A Query Request
I got a task in my database design class which has baffled me. No matter what I'm trying to to, it's a no go.

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `country` (
`Code` char(3) NOT NULL default '',
`Name` char(52) NOT NULL default '',
`Continent` enum('Asia','Europe','North America','Africa','Oceania','Antarctica','South America') NOT NULL default 'Asia',
`Region` char(26) NOT NULL default '',
`SurfaceArea` float(10,2) NOT NULL default Ɔ.00',
`IndepYear` smallint(6) default NULL,
`Population` int(11) NOT NULL default Ɔ',
`LifeExpectancy` float(3,1) default NULL,
`GNP` float(10,2) default NULL,
`GNPOld` float(10,2) default NULL,
`LocalName` char(45) NOT NULL default '',
`GovernmentForm` char(45) NOT NULL default '',
`HeadOfState` char(60) default NULL,
`Capital` int(11) default NULL,
`Code2` char(2) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`Code`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
I am asked to display the highest populated country on each populated continent. And it is supposed to be done in one query.

How To Get The Time Spent On A Request From PHP?
I would like to write the spent time for a mysql select, in the style
of Google's searches: "x results found for xxxxxx in xx secs".

How could i get the spent time from my PHP code? When you do a mysql
statement on a terminal this is shown at the end of the results, but i
can't find how to get this from PHP.

How Database Handle Request?
I want to write a program that can access to multiple database based on the user ID, but I dont know how the database handle user request. Please help me...

if user A execute program and redirect to database abc, and user B also accessing it. user A retrieve value from database but not yet update it, at the same time user B go get the value. How can I control it? can I code a program that control if A not yet finish, we cannot allowed user B to retrieve the value?

I cannot use Java synchronization. if I use it, it will synchronize for all the request although the request is redirect to different database(I am using many databases but sharing 1 program). There is no point to do synchronization if another user accessing other database that is no user at that moment but still need to wait user at different database finish their tasks first.

MySQL Crashes During Request
I'm working on MySQL 5.0 on Windows XP. I've tested a request on MSAccess and it's working. But if I launch it under MySQL, the PC crashes and I have to restart server.
this is the request :

SELECT * From bd_resultat.Valeurs_Entree Where Ve_Pa_Id = 147 and
Ve_Val ='NO_OUTIL' and Ve_Groupe
IN (SELECT Ve_Groupe From bd_resultat.Valeurs_Entree Where Ve_Pa_Id =
148 and Ve_Val ='FIB' and Ve_Groupe
IN (SELECT Ve_Groupe From bd_resultat.Valeurs_Entree Where Ve_Pa_Id =
149 and Ve_Val ='1.4732'));

There are 3 requests. If I put 2 requests, it's running. But If I put
more than 2 requests, it crashes.

Have you an an idea about this problem ?

Multiple Tables Request
I would like to perform a query on two tables. I want only records that match the conditions in each of the base.

First bas would be : where date>mktime()
Second would be : where test is not empty

When I performed with the following SELECT, I have too many records with strange joining.

$now=mktime()
SELECT *
FROM table1, table2
WHERE table1.date>$now
AND table2.test<>""

Enter Parameter Value Request
I keep receiving a request to enter paramerters value, even when I remove the where or order by expressions. What should I look for that would prompt this?

Is There A Way To Make 2 ORDER BY In The Same Request?
I'm using Mysql for my databsae but I don't know a lot about it.

I made a request like this:
$query = 'SELECT * FROM serie ORDER BY title ASC'

But I also have a 'season' colunm in my database an I want the title to be order by their name and either the season.

For example my db is filled like this:

id:1, title:spongebob, season:2
id:1, title:alien, season:1
id:1, title:spongebob, season:1

My $request will echo: alien, season 1 - spongebob, season 2 - spongebob, season 1
It's ok for the title but not for the season...

Date Range Request
Dates are stored in unix format GMT. I want to find all records either by "day" or by A Date Range "week" i have to deal with users seeing data in their time zone so people in GMT +9 would see records posted accordingly to someone in say GMT -8? Code:

2nd Request, Alpha & Numeric Queries
I am trying to pass through a string that I am exploding into individual values to use in a query. For example, I want to pull the following three values through a query:

99201
A0040
99211

When I run it through the following query (it's missing some html tages, just trying to do a dry run) i twill run the first value through (regardless if it's a alpha based or numeric based), but after that it hits the else phase of the if (mysql_num_rows($mcalookup) >= '1') { code.

Any clues what's going on? BTW< if I strip off the ' ' around the variable, it dies when it hits the alpha based variable. Code:

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 Variable
i am connected to the server and
i build some tables etc etc. everything is fine.

i run the command "show variables". it executes fine and shows me the values
of all the variables on the server. now if i try and change the value of the
variable tmpdir using the set command, it tells me unknown "error 1193:
system variable tmpdir". help needed here........

another point, the variable "tmpdir", points to the dir c:/windows/temp. i
put a text file in that dir and try to load some data from that file into a
table, and i get an error "file not found".

Ranking System
I've made a forum and i want to have a ranking system with it.

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. If i try to restart it it will continue to fail unless I restart the computer containing the database. Does anyone know what is causing this or how I can fix it?

Voting System
***********************
| game_id | discussion_id |
***********************

SELECT game_id, discussion_id, count( * ) FROM `games_voting` AS votes
GROUP BY votes.game_id, votes.discussion_id

using the above query to generate a count of votes grouped by game and then user who got the votes
right now it returns all the users that received votes for each game, i'd like to only receive the user with the top vote count

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.

But, can anyone tell me please if it is possible to set it up to ban certain names from being used?

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. I'm wondering if there is an arguement for or against putting MySQL over on the mail box or even putting it on its own box?Assuming the arguement is for putting MySQL on a different box, are there any pitfalls, tips, tricks I should consider before starting this project?

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. Which user will be able to register and which one will be denied? Do I need to use any locking facility? If so is it a wise decision to lock entire table?

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 ?

System Variable Tx_isolation
