Real Time Update
We're looking to evaluate MySql for a new web project. I have a hopefully simple requirement which we're looking to acheive. We will have a locally hosted application using MS Sql Server at the back end. The customer will then have an externally hosted website which uses MySql as it's backend. We're looking to automatically update the MySql database in realtime whenever certain changes are made to the local Sql Server db. I was thinking of either a remote call to the MySql database to update the relevant tables (will only be a case of adding single records to a specific table) or whether I could create/upload xml information which could then in some way be imported into the web db by some automated process.

Find Date And Time Of Last Update
I inherited a server running MySQL 4.* from a previous developer. Now, the records on this database might be what I want, or they might just be test data. I think my only chance of finding out if this is the real thing is to find the date and time of the last insert into the database.

How To Update Parent And Child Tables At The Same Time
I'm using phpMyAdmin to learn how to do MySQL queries. Once I figure them out I put them into my PHP code, which I'm also learning. I can do a SELECT query with a LEFT JOIN and get results. My next step is to figure out how to update 2 related tables at the same time. I have tblBudget and tblBudgetDetail. tblBudget has tblBudgetID and tblBudgetDetail has tblBudgetDetailID and BudgetID (which should hold the same value as tblBudgetID in the related record tblBudget) Code: tblBudget tblBudgetDetail tblBudgetID--| tblBudgetDetailID |---BudgetID crude, but perhaps you get the idea. The join is one to many. One tblBudget to many tblBudgetDetail. So is it possible to update both tables with one query? I guess the query would have to populate the field BudgetID in tblBudgetDetail with the same value that is in tblBudgetID in tblBudget. Does MySQL do that automatically?

Easy SELECT With OR Takes A Very Long Time
We've got a database with about 1000000 books. A query in the table BOOKS for the TITLE 'java' is very fast. We have a fulltext index on the column TITLE. However, if we want to do a exact same query and include the rule that the book with ISBN '0131016210' always should be included - then the query take several seconds to finish: SELECT * FROM C_BOOK WHERE MATCH(NAME) AGAINST ('java') AND (ISBN LIKE '0%' OR ISBN LIKE '1%') OR ISBN = '0131016210' ISBN is the PRIMARY KEY. Is there anything I can do about this?

Single SELECT And UPDATE
Does there exist a way to do a SELECT and an UPDATE in one query? What I am trying to do is building a shop that´s articles are saved in a mySQL db and I wanna count the impressions of each article that is shown by e.g. a search function. would be something like that: article no | text | category | impressions 1 | aaaa| 1 |1 2 | bdsd| 2 |1 3 | aaaa| 2 |1 4 | bdsd| 3 |1 and so on Now I want e.g. to search for all articles that are in category 2 AND add +1 to the impressions cell of those articles that are found. I hope it´s understandable what I am trying to do. I guess it should be possible, but since I only so far used very simple queries I am not sure how to?

SELECT And UPDATE Simulations

As part of this study I have to run many different combinations of parameters (approx 500000+) and so I've stored a list of each parameter combination in a mysql database. Each process checks the database to find the next set of parameters that need processing. So the script looks a bit like as follows: #!/bin/bash declare -r WAITING_TO_RUN="0" declare -r RUNNING="1" declare -r FINISHED="2" declare -r HOST="mysql.somehost.com" declare -r USER="myusername" declare -r PASSWORD="mypassword" # This is the main query string that isn't working correctly ....

Select And Update Concurrently
I have a db used for shop floor data collection that I have converted from a Progress V8 RDBMS. It is recording some 50 data points from each of 6 shop floor machines every 5 seconds. The problem I have is one of incremental backup of this (the main data logging) table. In the old system, there is a LOGICAL (boolean) flag field that is set (in code) when the data records have been copied to the backup file (could be another table). I can't seem to find in MySQL documentation or in these forums, a way to select and update in the same query. What I would like to do (in as plain english as possible) is: Select all records from the source table where the 'copied' flag is not set, and send them to a destination (which could be a flat file or another table), simultaneously setting the 'copied' flag in the source table. I thought of doing this in two passes, selecting the records first, and outputting them, then setting the flag, but the problem this poses is that there may (probably will) be fresh data written to the table during and between the passes. This will cause records to flagged as copied that have not actually been backed up.
