Shared Password
I've installed mySQL out of the box and set a new password for the root account, which works in the MySQL monitor but not with the mysqladmin tool.
Please can anyone advise whats going on or if I have to do anything else to get access to the admin tool?

UDF Shared Library
I am trying to create a User Defined Function (UDF) using mySql 4.1.11 (mysql-max-4.1.11 for Solaris 8). I am trying to get the examples to work (udf_example.so) I have successfully compiled it and copied the resulting .so file to /usr/lib. The command 'crle' (like ldconfig on Linux) shows that /usr/lib is in the library path, but when I type in mysql: CREATE FUNCTION metaphon RETURNS STRING SONAME "udf_example.so" I get the error 1126, Can't open shared library 'udfexample.so' I've tries renaming the library 'libudf_example.so', but that didn't work either. I don't know how to check what libraries mysql is looking through. I am just guessing that it uses the library path from 'crle'. Any ideas?

Replication Using A Shared Fileserver
I thought of a radical way to do replication of MySQL servers. Let's assume two MySQl servers access a shared mapped storage (/mnt/db) which is a local mount to a fileserver on the network. This fileserver is shared between the MySQL servers; which means any writes to /mnt/db appears immediately on /mnt/db on the other MySQL machine. Two MySQL servers may attempt to modify to the same file if we don't use synchronization. My question is, first, can we do this without making patches to MySQL code, and somehow using some synchronization mechanism accross the two machines running MySQL server each. Or we need to patch MySQL code to support such architecture. Second, is it trivial or impossible to do, how much man-time it requires roughly.

Connections On Shared Server
I frequently get the error message: Warning: mysql_connect(): User user1 has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections in /home/.sites/60/site23/web/Connections/mysite.php on line 9 It's commercial web hosting on a shared server so I have no control over the server side of things. The php scripting has been written using the GUI in Dreamweaver. Is there anything I can do to resolve this? Should I be using mysql_connect or mysql_pconnect, or is this not the problem? Do I need to include somewhere in my scripts a snippet which disconnects from the server? If so where would I put this? I am not all that familiar with php and mySQL, though I understand parts of it when looking at the code. The database connection is made via a connection.php file produced by Dreamweaver which includes the database details etc. My max connections are only 10. Is this the issue? It only seems to appear when I use php to edit or add to the mySQL database.

Multiple Database, 1 Shared Table, Is It Possible?
I Used MySQL for a long time dev under PHP 3, 4 and now 5 now i'm facing a problems that i solved in the past with php, but i wonder if MySQL could do it on it's own, that'll help me a lot. Multiple database, 1 shared table, is it possible? i mean, i already done with 5 install of Xoops CMS and modified it that every install is on the same database, with deifferents prefixes (like db1_ db2_ ...) then i mod Xoops for each time it called for it's users or saved open sessions id in the DB it use the same table on all install... so the users seamlessly wonder about in 5 differents xoops install without disconnect and change username. now i face the same problem, i need a multi-install or a single install of a core system that will act as a multi-install sofware, but with the same set of users, sessions and some other things.

Security For Shared Server.xml Passwords
I have an ISP that has the server.xml in a shared environment. The server.xml file is where my password is available for database access under connection pooling. I really would like to use connection pooling. Does anyone know how I can protect my password from being viewed by others using the same server.xml file? I cannot get the administrator to change the protection of the file because others in the shared environment need to be able to view it.

Can A MySQL Database Be Shared Between Windows And Linux?
I've got Windows and Linux running on my computer, on seperate partitions. I also have a shared partition for stroing files, and can be read and written by either system. I also have MySQL installed on both systems. When I make changes to the database in Windows, I have to do a dump of the database (or single tables) to a text file on my shared partition. I then have to switch into Linux and load that file into MySQL there. This is a bit of a hassle. Is it possible to somehow store the database file on the shared partition, and use the same database from both OSes? This would be very convenient, since I wouldn't have to maintain two copies of the same database!

ODBC Connection To MySQL On Shared Hosted Website
I'm trying to connect to a mySQL database that exists in connection w/ my website. I created the database using c-panel. Everything that I use to access the website from my site uses "localhost" as the host name. I installed the ODBC drivers for Windows on my XP machine and am trying to connect from my local machine. I am not sure what I should use for the hostname in that case -- I tried www.mysitename.com as the host but that didn't work. I also tried the IP address, but that didn't work either. I asked my host's support team, but haven't heard back from them yet. It's a shared hosting service. Any ideas on what the hostname should be?

How Often Is Best To Create New Database, Migrate Data With Shared Hosting?
I have got a web site that I have ben working on since March, 2007. It is a news reporting web site. It is replacing an older web site. I created a new database (it uses the MySQL database) last March when I started working on the new web site. I have migrated all of the news content from the old web site database to the new web site database. I have a shared web hosting. It's my understanding that the hosting service provider fills up one server with databases then starts a new server with databases. For example, the IP for the server that is hosting the current database for the new web site is 10.6.166.5 I just created a new database (the hosting allows you to have ten databases per shared hosting). The IP for the server for the recently created database for the new web site hosting is 10.6.166.92 If the servers are ordered sequentially there have been 87 new servers filled up with databases since last March (i.e. 10.6.166.92 recently created IP minus 10.6.166.5 March, 2007 IP equals 87 servers). The problem with migrating the nine-month old database to the new database is that I have got over a thousand news stories and two thousand pictures stored in the database with the 10.6.166.5 IP address. I would have to copy and paste all of the data into the phpMyAdmin program or write a PHP script that would automate the process. Is there any benefit to migrating the 10.6.166.5 March, 2007 IP database over to the more recently created 10.6.166.92 IP database? Would it be reasonable to expect the more recently created database to perform better over the next 12 to 18 months than the one created nine months ago?

Why Dont Shared Hosting Accounts Provide Stored Procedures And Triggers?
i am searching for 3 days now for a reliable, fast hosting company, which supports stored procedures and triggers on mysql5. most of them dont support this, because mysql5 has a design-flaw in which it stores procedures and triggers on a root level-area (tables mysql information_schema). due this logic, most of the hosting companies wont allow you to create/run procedures and triggers. funny, that hosting companies forbid you to use new technologies and methods to build faster.

Mysql Password() & Unix Crypt Password...
I am creating a user administration system where system administrator can activate services for a user, like webspace, a mail account or a subdomain. I now want to create a function that creates mysql databases and grant the right privileges to a user. But the problem is that mysql wants to have the plaintext password for the user in the "grant ... identified by 'pwd'" field, or in a manual query to update the password in the mysql.user table with PASSWORD('pwd'). I have another database which holds the passwords for the users, these password are stored the moment a user signs up and are used to activate services, for example ssh access to the machine. The stored passwords are encrypted using crypt(). So for adding a ssh service to a user, I simply do echo "$user:$pwdhash" | chpasswd -e. I have chosen crypt because some programs (like proftpd) don't take md5 sums. The problems is that I don't have the plaintext password. So I cannot add a mysql db. So I need to create a user in mysql with a crypt password. I tried to just "grant all privileges ... identified by 'nothing'" and then afterwards update the mysql.user table and putt the crypt password in there but it doesn't work like that. Does anyone have any idea on how I could fix this, how can I create a user in mysql without having his plaintext password and only having a crypt hash of it. I thought about not only storing a crypt hash, but also an md5 hash and a mysql PASSWORD() hash.. but I think that's an ugly solution.

Password()
we just moved our websites over to another datacenter and in the process noticing that we are having troubles logging into some of our sites. Just as a quick test I manually updated a test user's password to password=password('hello') but the funny thing is when I try to login with hello, no record found. I echo the query and paste it into mysql and it shows empty results. SO I then queried for it to show me the record for this user and it shows the encrypted password to start with an * and then all characters are CAPS. No matter what I update the password to, this is the case. All alpha chars are caps and the pass starts off with an *. Has anyone run into this before? All of this worked before and our data looks ok in our tables but if you update the pass, it screws it up bad.

Recover A Password
Is there a way to recover a lost password in Mysql 4.1. I have seen many articles and howto's on how to kill the Mysql process and then restart using skip grant tables option. I am not trying to reset the password but rather recover it. Resetting the password to something else would cause a problem some of the underlying programs that rely on MySQL. I don't feel like changing code for every application that is using MySQL in my site. Also along similar lines. What if I were to kill the MySQL process and then reload with the skip grant tables option and login to the MySQL server. Could I create another account with root priviledges, such as admin, while not messing with the original root account or it's password. Lastly is there a way to copy just the grant tables information to another copy of MySQL so that I can experiment with this process on a non production box?

I was trying to put it in /root/.my.cnf as this [client] password = PASS That seems to be not working. I am not sure if mysqldump even reads that file. The only option worked for me is putting the password in a file /root/.pass and chmod it to 000 and then run this mysqldump -u root -p`cat /root/.pass` --opt database > database.tmp However I don't like this option because it tells you where the password is residing. I need to put this in cron so I don't like the option of showing the filename.
