Subqueries And LIMITs...
I want to display a subset of data from another query...
Basically I've got 3 tables which are all joined together in a query...
Lets say I have 300 results rows displayed from that query. Is there a way I can then limit those results without effecting the original query (I still need to be able to pull all the results as well)
I've tried (and it didn't work)...
Quote:
SELECT * FROM products, manufacturers, brands
WHERE
(SELECT stock_code FROM products, manufacturers, brands
WHERE
(manufacturers.manufacturer_id = brands.house_id) AND
(products.brand_id = brands.brand_id)
ORDER BY
manufacturers.manufacturer_name,
brands.brand_name,
products.stock_code)
LIMIT 0 , 10

Row Limits
SELECT JID, JState, JClass, JClass2, JTitle FROM JPosts WHERE `JobClass` ='Designers' ORDER BY JTitle, JState With this giving many results per state: a) how can the results be limited to 2 rows per JState? b) how to limit to 2 of the same JClass2 per JState (where JState still has 2 row maximum also) notes: JTitle is a job title JClass2 is a 2nd type class, here it could be 'Floor_Designers'

Set Limits
When I was on a shared server I used to manage (access, edit, etc.) my databases with phpMyAdmin Now, on a dedicated server I am the super-user trying to get the same. Under "privileges" I can create new users (for a virtual server) If I check (allow) any of the global privileges he will see and browse ALL existing databases. The only way I see to avoid this is only to set privileges to some existing databases. A new user would want to create new ones to start his project not to use existing ones. How can I set wide privileges to a user keeping visible only his databases? Limit number of databases?

About Limits
I have 256 databases with around 30k tables in them (running a bloggind service). I've been using tuning-primer.sh for sometime now and I've been trying to edit some settings as recommended. So far so good, except 2 limits that are being ignored. Open_files_limit is stuck at 65535, no matter what I set it in my.cnf Table cache is stuck at 32712, no matter what number I try to set higher that that. I am using CentOS 5.2 64bit, with WHM/Cpanel. Using Mysql 5 and PHP 5. I've tried using ulimit -n, but once I logout it resets back to 1024.

Database Table Limits?
I'm having some trouble with accessing or altering my tables in database and I was wondering if this was due limitations in table size. I created a few tables with about 4000 rows at least 3 columns When I attempt a SELECT * and use PHP to print out the Table, the browser just gets stuck loading the data. Also, any attempt to CHANGE field names gives me the same result. I tried ALTER TABLE tableName CHANGE oldname newName INTEGER and the browser also gets stuck loading the page. Are these tables simply too large to handle? what's wrong?

Limits On Large Files?
I am developing a secure file upload/download site. My approach is to use an account driven system which allows for file upload/download. The files will be "absorbed" into the database directly, as opposed to leaving them on the web file structure. The file downloads will be by "releasing" from the database. My basic application operates currently, however, I am running into a limit problem. I cannot upload beyond 17 MB file. I am on WinXP, PHP v 4.3.10, MySQL v 4.1.8, and access to Apache v2.0.52 (port 80) and Abyss v 1.2.3.0 (port 8000). I have learned that these variables with upload influences are... PHP: file_uploads = on PHP: post_max_size = 30MB PHP: upload_max_filesize = 30MB MySQL: max_allowed_packet = 30MB

Pushing MySQL Limits?
I'm a total idiot when it comes to MySQL stuff and that is exactly why I am posting here. I'm developing a script for a specific site of mine. Basically, it's a “cast your vote” type of thing. There are basically 50 categories that my users will be voting on for each article. I expect to get at least 1,000 votes per article (maybe even 100,000 votes by the end of next year) per day and I the number of articles could be in the thousands as well. These votes would need to be averaged out occasionally to display the most popular articles in their given field. How practical is this kind of database load? It seams like this would be an enormous load on any MySQL database. What kind of hardware budget are we talking to make sure this setup could be stable? All of my php code would be verified by a mega php programmer to make sure it's as efficient as possible and I'd probably pay a MySQL expert to make sure the code is as efficient as possible on the server end as well.

Limits On Table Types And Database?
I have been using the mysql database in my project. It recently came to mind that their may be limits on how much data a table or database itself can hold. I did some googling on it. I found this on table types - InnoDB has no limit MyIsam is limited to 4gb - but I found a site that showed how the limit could be increased. So there are size limits on certain types of tables - but what about the database itself? I have a database that consists of a large amount of tables. Some tables are holding bytes (column type = mediumblob; to store images) in their rows. I'm concerned that when I go live with my project that I might run into problems if a limit is reached or exceeded.

Subqueries On 4.0.25 Without Subqueries
i have 2 tables. knowing subqueries cant be performed on this version how would i write the following statement? i have 2 tables table.a, table.b I want to select all records from table.a that match table.a.id = table.b.id WHERE table.b.varchar = 'value' once the table.b.varchar is found, get table.b.id and match it to any records in table.a.id that match it. Can this be done in 1 statement. I'd hate to have to run a loop here. I've tried without success JOIN statements. here is one of my attempts: "SELECT table.a.* FROM table.a, table.b WHERE table.a.id = table.b.id AND table.b.varchar = '$value' GROUP BY table.a.sortkey ORDER BY table.a.is_primary DESC "; this does return 1 row, and joins the 2 tables accordingly, however i need all rows in table.a that match the table.b.id where table.b.varchar = 'value'

Possible Without Subqueries
I'm trying to merge the result of 2 queries but I can't use subqueries. The first query gets all the sign-ups from a particular referer, the second query gets how many of those sign-ups are still active. So the first query does a count, group by ref and the second one does count where active group by ref - I know I could do this easily with subqueries but without them I'm lost.

SQL, Count And Subqueries
I have one table that lists a number of courses available (including CourseID, CourseName and MaxPositions), with CourseID being auto_increment and unique I have another table which has CourseRegistration (Containing CourseID and CustomerID), with no unique fields. Customer information is stored elswhere. Without having a field in the Courses table holding the number of people currently registered, how would I return a result set which included: CourseID, CourseName, MaxPositions and the Number of people registered to take that course. Preferably this would not use features in MySQL 4.1, but anything is fair game at this point.

Theory Of Subqueries For 4.1.7
While converting SQL statements for a database change, I discovered a big performance hit in MYSQL with subqueries vices Sybase. I'm hoping that someone might be able to help me understand why? I have two tables USERS (2200 records) and JOB Decriptions (163 records). I wanted to retrieve all the job description not in the USER table. (No Indexes on JOBDESC currently) select JOBDESC from JOBS where JOBDESC not in ( select JOBDESC from USERS where JOBDESC not NULL ) In Sybase the query returns in about .56 secs In Mysql 4.1.7 query returns in about 8.78 secs The funny thing is if I run the query like so select JOBDESC from JOBS where JOBDESC not in ('President','Vice President','Treasaur','Secretary') returns in .03 secs. Those four descriptions are returned by the inner select. All select statements individually return in .03 secs. I created indexes on both tables for JOBDESC and reduced the time to ..97 secs. I used explain command to help understand what is going on hence the indexes, but why the difference in speed?

Optimization :: Subqueries
i have a little complex query that involves sub queries upto three levels. now thing is that , i think, mysql evaluates the sub queries every time that query is evaluated, whereas, i know that results for the third and 4th level queries are same for some number of queries. can we force mysql to store the result of the subqueries to be used later, instead of reexecuting the query.i studied mysql query optimization but, finally concluded is that things over there are just how mysql optimizes queries, not how can we optimize the query to be performed better. any resources for query optimization, i mean good resources ?

Subqueries And The IN Operator
hey all, i am having serious problems with getting my head around why this will not work. i am trying to return a number of games played with a count of the number of people in it. the table structures are as follows: games gameref | gamepot | gamedate | gamelength | ..1...... | .... 50.... | 12.12.04 | ... 03.00.00 | winnings gref | pref | amountwon | stake | 1 . .| 1 .. | ....20 ...... | 10...| i have used the dots to try and keep the table in some sort of form. i have only entered one row of data for each just to show the format of it, if this is not enough please ask for more. the games table holds each game that has been played, the total pot available to be won the date played and the duration of the game. the winnings table is teh winnings of each player in each game. the gref is the game it refers to, the pref is teh player it refers to, (there is a player table but is not used in this query at all). the amount that player won and the stake they entered into the pot. if ya didnt gues its a poker database. my problem is as follows. Quote: $sql = ("SELECT games.*, COUNT(winnings.gref) as playercount, winnings.gref FROM games, winnings WHERE gameref = gref group by gameref order by gamedate"); this query works a treat. it counts the amount of players in each game and outputs it all nicely.. but i wanted to edit the query to be able to show just all the games a single player had been in. Quote: $sql = ("select games.*, COUNT(winnings.gref) as playercount, winnings.gref from games, winnings where gameref in (select gref from winnings where pref ='$pid') group by gameref order by gamedate"); $pid is passed into the page by Quote: pt_register('POST','pid'); but this throws an error Quote: Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/ghoxmfjz/public_html/database/poker/allgames.php on line 32 Query failed! line 32 is: Quote: $nrows = mysql_num_rows($result); i can get it to work if i substitute the subquery for (1,2,3) being the first 3 games played. this would assume a certain player would have been in these 3 games. the problem i get is that the COUNT function just counts every player in everygame not the individuals. if i group it by gref it counts them (sort of.. it doubles the count) but then does not return any of the other information for the query. i am very confused any and all suggestions of things to look at or consider or a straight ur doing XXX wrong would be grand.. thx all Jon oh btw if you wish to look at the output if that helps the URL is: http://www.happygolucky.me.uk/database/poker/allgames.php with the variable $pid as the reference to try the player.

Problem With Subqueries
I am trying to find the rows in table1 that do not have matching rows in table2 in order to set the value of a field in table1. I can get a query to return the rows that do have matches with this query: select item1 from table1 where item1 in (select item2 from table2); However, the following queries return no data: select item1 from table1 where not(item1 in (select item2 from table2)); select item1 from table 1 where item1 <> all(select item2 from table2); My understanding of the first query is that the not operation would be applied after evaluating whether item was in the result of the subquery. With the second query, I thought it should return true if item is not equal to every result in the subquery. If I try to use a left join and then simply find the rows that have a null value coming from table2, I get the correct resultset but I can't use that as a subquery for my update statement. Since table1 is what is being updated MySQL tells me that table1 cannot be used in the subquery for the update statement. I have this working in a stored procedure by importing the result of the join into a temporary table, but I'd rather not have to write all that data and then delete it.

Subqueries And Limit
I am a beginner with MySQL and I have this very large table where queries take a long time to complete. I was trying to limit the amount of time by limiting the scope of the query to only a few rows, by using LIMIT. To that effect a construct like: SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 100; seems to work perfectly, because it returns the 1st 100 rows from the table. The problem is, I cannot use this in a subquery. In other words, if I try something like: SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 100) as temp; I'm getting an error. I read the documentation about subqueries in the FROM clause, but I cannot figure out what's qrong with the syntax.
