Updating From 4.0 To 4.1
My web host will update the server to MySQL 4.1 this week.
What's the difference? Should I look for something special in my code that might not work after that?
They will probably update to ver 5 later as well. But not yet.

Updating
If I have a bunch of cells that say: ,4, and i want to update them with another number (5, and 6, -> $var) so that I would get results like ,4,5, and ,4,6, how would I go about updating that? I notice, if I defined $var, and just use a normal update command, it just replaces it, but I want to keep the 4 in there (not necessarily always 4, but this is an example, as that too is a different number each time). I tried using variables as well, but if I did anything within the while method, I couldn't bring it to the query. Any suggestions?
Updating A Row ....
I have an application for employee punch in/out. My table structure is, ID,Date,Employee Name,In-time,Out-time. Now when on the first punch in of the day, it will add a new record for that employee for that date only in in-time field. Next time, when same employee punches out, it should update the same existing record and put time value in out-time field. Next time when again, same employee tries to punch in, a new record gets added with value in only in-time field and so on.. Now, a totally weird thing happens. Whenever employee tries to punch out (so there is a value in in-time field), it updates that record as well as it adds a new record with same out-time value in in-time field. So in nutshell, it updates the existing record and adds a new record. I checked my script 50 times and put debugging code, but i don't find any errors.

Is it possible to do an update with load data infile? We need to load a load of csv files into our database but the tables have additional fields over the ones in the csv files that we need to preserve as they contain the margins and profits for each item.

Can Updating
###### I am trying to update data in a vehicle_fuel column where the conditions match up to the costpergallon column. I need to know if I am doing this right and if this is possible, because at the moment it is not working for me. sql = "UPDATE vehicle_fuel,costpergallon SET vehicle_fuel.fuel_value=costpergallon.costper WHERE vehicle_fuel.fuel_value='0' AND vehicle_fuel.fuel_type_pumped=costpergallon.cost_type"; #### There should be about four different match ups with four different data values and I need it to loop through the entire table and update the data in the different rows.

trying to update to mysql 5.1 on mac os x 10.4.3 without much success. I've reinstalled mysql 5.1 and now in terminal when I try to start it with: sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe & /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql test I get this error message 2002, server not running (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/...-server.html): [1] 1342 ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) 127:/usr/local/mysql garrett$ 070913 11:56:08 mysqld_safe Logging to '/usr/local/mysql/data/127.0.0.1.err'. ./bin/mysqld_safe: line 366: [: -eq: unary operator expected 070913 11:56:08 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data 070913 11:56:11 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /usr/local/mysql/data/127.0.0.1.pid ended so I have checked the error report as it says to do here (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/...-server.html): 070913 11:58:17 [Warning] Setting lower_case_table_names=2 because file system for /usr/local/mysql/data/ is case insensitive /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Unknown error 1146 070913 11:58:17 [ERROR] Can't open the mysql.plugin table.

Updating Most Recent/last Row
This is for a directory and the table Dir holds the selected plan of each member. The table contains a history of the plans (inserted on each selection) so what I need to do is update the last row of Dir.DirID. Every time 'Posting' value is echoed on the page with query 'Listings' (two seperate tables from Dir - one for runtime and one for the actual postings (a foreign/primary key) - then Dir.Dview is incremented as a basic hit counter with the query Listings higher on the page. What is the most reliable way of updating the last row of Dir.DView where DirID is primary? note: query 'Listings' uses SELECT max But experimenting with this before, I hessitate to use SELECT max for an update. <?php echo ($row_Listings['Posting']); $query_updateSQL = sprintf ("UPDATE Dir SET Dir.DView = (Dir.DView+1) WHERE DirID = %s", $colname_Listings); $result = mysql_query($query_updateSQL); ?>
Updating A Specific Row
I have a question about updating a row in a table. This table keeps a record of when a user logs in/out with username, time of login/logout and ip-adress. When a user logs in, the logouttime is of course left blank. When that user logs out I need to update that row with the logout time. I know I need to use "UPDATE log SET timeLoggedOut = '$timeLoggedOut'" I have a session variable with the identity of the user currently logged in. But how do I update only the last row in the table containing the username of the user logging out? If I only use WHERE username='$userloggedin' it will update every row containing that username..... EDIT: I guess I could use $sql = "SELECT MAX(loginID) from log WHERE username = '$userloggedin'" to identify the row I need to change, right? But how do I return that information from the db so that I can put it in a php variable?
Updating Row Changes Timestamp.
I have a flagging system on posts... if someone flags a post it adds 1 to the "flagged" field. My problem is, whenever someone does this, it changes the timestamp so the post they flagged goes to the top of the list because they are ordered by postdate DESC.
Reading & Updating
I have a table where I have all my cars in. They have a brand_id and a model_id. I would like to read this cars table, see how many cars I have from every brand, and every model, and update my other tables, being brands and models. Cars: car_id, brand_id, model_id Brands brand_id, nr_cars Models: model_id, nr_cars I can read every line seperately, and then within that loop do a UPDATE, but I guess there is a 'good' way to do this.
Updating Database
I'm fairly new to mySQL and php and seeking some input. I created a database to hold a member directory. It is a single table. The client uses some contact management software we're they keep track of their members. Therefore, the client does not want to enter the information through a form on the website. Instead the client wants to export a comma delimited file from the program and then use that exported file to update the database. What would be the best approach to do this??? MySQL's LOAD DATA works fine as long as the original data does not change. If a member is removed or a primary key is changed, new rows are added but the old ones (that should of been updated) remain. I figured whenever the client goes to update the db, a script deletes all data from the db, then imports the text file. This doesn't seem like a very efficient approach to me though. Maybe importing the data into a temporary table and then comparing it to the actual table would work, though I am not sure how to go about doing this.
Updating Phpmyadmin.
How do I add this info to my database using phpmyadmin? I have no idea as to how phpmyadmin works, so I will appreciate basic step by step guides to do this.... : I need to add: ALTER TABLE phpbb_themes ADD fontcolor4 VARCHAR (6) ; ALTER TABLE phpbb_themes_name ADD fontcolor4_name CHAR (50) ;
Updating Fields
I'm trying to update values in one column. Some values contain numbers and some are blank. I need to update both but I'd like to do it one query instead of two but I can't figure out how. Example: tableA has 2 columns, item and itemNum. Lets say there's 10 records and 5 values for itemNum are blank, the rest have a number. I need to update itemNum's all blank values to one number and update the initial values as well, but in one query. In other words, I know how to make the query's one by one but I'd like them both in one query. Example single query's: UPDATE tableA SET itemNum = '10' + item WHERE item = 'cd'; UPDATE tableA SET itemNum = '20' WHERE itemNum = ' '; btw, the blank values are not null, they just have a blank string.
Updating A File
FIXED PROBLEM: I missed a comma in the UPDATE statement. I am trying to make simple site that allows news to be posted with one file attachment (such as a picture). I have the initial inserting done just fine. When I am trying to update the record (for if the news article needs to be edited), I cannot figure out how to replace the existing file attachment. Here is the code I am using that will not UPDATE the file but will update all the other fields. Can someone please help me correct this? Code:
Updating Tables
I have a database called "returnsMySQL". Inside there are two tables called "originaldate" and tempdate". The "originaldate" has dates but it is not a date type field. 3 Years ago the field started saving dates under the short date format. Example: 9/2/01 In order to get correct searches, I need this field to be updated to the 4 digit year: Example 9/2/2001 I have tried using Active Server Pages, querying the database and trying to format the results using "FormatDateTime" the get the correct date but I have not had any luck taking the formatted date and saving it to the field "tempdate". There are about 15,000 records in the database. What would be my best option to accomplish this?
Updating Records
let us say for example i have a database called sales that has a table called sales. sales has 4 columns: names, yr1999, yr2000, yr2001 names ------- bob carla cynthia yr1999 ------- 3000 1200 8000 yr2000 ------- 4000 6700 4500 yr2001 ------ 3400 3200 1200 what I want to do is update yr1999, yr2000, yr2001 by 10 percent so that when i do SELECT * from sales.sales I will be able to see all records updated to their new values.
Updating Records
I'm not sure what function to use in updating records in my existing table. I want to update a field that contains this sample data, "cards/misc/love/test/iloveyou.gif", but I need to retain only the filename (iloveyou.gif). The table already have 12000 records with different filename. What update statement should I used?
Updating Fields' Value
UPDATE `blablabla`.`blabla_db` SET `work_y` = '1' WHERE `blabla_db`.`id` =1 LIMIT 1 ; Ok, the one above only updates one field's value, it only updates id 1, which sets work_y to 1. What i want to know is how to update all ids at the same time, which sets work_y to 1. Is there a way to do that?
Updating A Field
i using access and i have a table with two fields in it, "hit" , and "id", hit is a long integer, and id is an AutoNumber, is it possible to create an sql query, so that when it is run, selects a record using the id feild, and increments hit by 1?
Updating SET-fields
I've got a table with a set field. This is the create statement for the table: CREATE TABLE `test` ( `field_a` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL default '0', `field_b` set('a','b','c') character set latin1 collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL default '0') ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci; Now I want to store integer values. That means I type in the mask value, not the set-values itsself. This is the query: INSERT INTO table (field_b, field_b) VALUES (5,6) Everthing works fine on my MySQL 4.1.13-nt server. But it doesn't work with MySQL 5.0.21 (running on ubuntu).
Updating A Database
I am able to create my database and populate it manually, but I want a web page that is tied to the database for updating fields. For example, I have a database that has an inventory of golf balls and with a starting inventory and a field of sales. I want the field of sales to update from a web page. So I have a page with a menu that says sales and then I select golf balls and select 1, how will my sales field update, say from the current 10 to 11 after selecting 1 sale? I know I can do it manually like update golf_table set golf_ball_sales = 11 where golf_ball_manufacturer = callaway; Also, if I want to query a profit list on my golf balls and I have a field that has a percentage of what I paid for the ball and a cost, how would that query look? I have a field of golf_ball_cost, another with my_cost_percentage and another with the golf_ball_sales from above (i.e $45.00 / 50% or $22.50 / 10 which gives me a profit of $225.00.
Updating Records
I have a table that looks something like this: myID myLat myLon Value1 Value2 23 28.5 -30.1 15 37 16 65 53 77 67 29.4 -30.6 34 65 45 67 22 26.5 -29.1 16 27 11 66 53 79 The number of records for each value in myID are not the same. What I need to do is go through the entire table and fill in the myID, myLat and myLon fields with values that are equal to those set previously, so that the result looks like this: myID myLat myLon Value1 Value2 23 28.5 -30.1 15 37 23 28.5 -30.1 16 65 23 28.5 -30.1 53 77 67 29.4 -30.6 34 65 67 29.4 -30.6 45 67 22 26.5 -29.1 16 27 22 26.5 -29.1 11 66 22 26.5 -29.1 53 79 I'm very new to mysql. Can anyone tell me the best way to solve my problem?
Rs Updating With MySql
I used this code to add a record to table 'adItems' when I used access. once I added the record, I pulled the new id of it (just after it was created - bolded). Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") rs.open "select * from adItems",conn,3,3 rs.AddNew rs("catId") = catId rs("expiry") = expiry rs("adTitle") = adTitle rs.Update newid = rs("id") <-- empty!! rs.close now, that I moved to MySql, newid remains blank. why is that?
Updating One Table With Another
My table contains a product number field 'packCode' but some clients may have their own internal product code. I have created a table ('configurators') which contains our product code along with two columns each for clients: their product code and price, i.e.: packCode, insight_code, insight_price The client sends me data containing our pack code matched against their product code and price. I wish to merge their data with our price list in the configurators table. The MySQL I have used is: update configurators set insight_code=iCode, insight_price=iPrice where configurators.packCode=config_insight.iPackCode; (The columns from the client data are preceded with 'i', i.e. 'iCode', 'iPrice' and 'iPackCode') However, when I run the query, I get the unusual error "ERROR 1109 (42S02): Unknown table 'config_insight' in where clause" suggesting that the table 'config_insight' does not exist, which it clearly does. Is this the correct way to merge data from one table into another? Is my SQL query valid or am I missing something?
Updating Table
I'm sure this is possible, probably with a sub-query.I want to update a record with a value from another record in the same table. E.G. CODEName Val_1 Val_2 Check_col Test1 0 0 s Test1 10 20 M Test2 0 0 s Test2 20 25 M
Updating Table
I have a database table and 1 column has positive and negative values in it. I want to update the table so that all entries in this column are positive... so all negative values like -3, -2, and -1 become 3,2 and 1 respectively in the table.
Updating Table
I have a database of books that was originally created as a flat file. Each record has a number of fields, including the authors name. I'm trying to convert the database to something a little more efficient. I've created a new table (called Authors) of unique authors names and assigned each one a unique ID. I've added a new field in the original table (called Books) for the author's ID. Now, I need to update the original table with the author ID from the Author's table. Something like this: UPDATE Books SET AuthorID = Authors.AuthorID WHERE AuthorName = Authors.AuthorName .
Updating Fields
I'd like to do something like this: update table1 set field1=field0 from table2; so that the update operation is not based on any static values and does an update instead of an insert. Could someone tell me if I can do something like this on command line, or do I need to write some code to traverse over every value in field0?
Updating MySQL
i was proven wrong when i thought i could find a simple solution in a search... but all the returns were on how to update info in a mysql database... not actually update mysql.
Updating Rows
I have a table say like this: t1 v1 AUTO_INCREMENT v2 char(40) v3 int (its empty, need this in here!) and say I have a CSV file with the values that I want to add, not in the same order as the values in the table, but the first column contains the index, v1. 1, "1234", 5 So is it possible to import like this? or would it be better to dump the whole table into a CSV file, add the data I need to and reload it in?On that subject, if you set a value of the auto_increment column when using LOAD DATA INFILE, will it set it providing that the value does not exist twice as requsted? or will it ignore it and auto_increment one up? because i need all the numbers to remain the same as they are linked into other tables from this index value!
Updating Table Value
update jobs set paid=true where jobid in (SELECT jobid from jobs where CreatedBYusername='roop') after executing this query i got an ERROR: You can't specify target table 'jobs' for update in FROM clause..... same thing i executed in mssql....how can i do this in mysql

If yes, can someone pl give the syntax. I am using VB6 , ADO ( with connection string for connecting to MYSQL)
Updating Records
I have a table of event logs with a record ID (auto-increment primary key), a time stamp, an event category and an event details. I need to work with the sequence of details per category of events, on example is computing the time elapsed between consecutive events. I thought of adding a field to contain the record ID of the previous event in the same category but I can't come up with an update statement that can populate that field. The best I could do was to mark records as having previous events or not, based on a duplicate removal statement. I'm using MySQL 4.1.
Updating Db Schema
I was thinking something like mkdir dump mysqldump -p --tab=dump dbname mysql> drop database dbname; mysqladmin create dbname cat newschemafile.sql | mysql -p dbname mysqlimport dbname dump/*.txt But when I do it this way I seem to be left with the same schema I started out with.
Updating Date
What's the best way to do this? I need to search an invoice table. For a specific company name, I need to update all invoice dates to match their shipping dates. In other words, I need to search for a company name, and for each match update the invoice date to be the shipping date.
Updating Records
I need to update some reacords in the database according to its date interval, now the last time I posted this.. I hade it almost right.. except for one keyword... but for some reason the db is not updating correctly.. for example I have.Code: ----------------+------------------+--------+--------- | image_id | date_submitted | active | | 1 | 2006-06-19 14:29:59 | 1 | | 2 | 2006-06-18 12:09:59 | 1 Now on every 7 day interval I need to update its active field to 0 and im using the following code. Code: set active = '0' where date_submitted < DATE_SUB( now( ), INTERVAL 7 DAY )" ); Now I have more data then this.. but for some reason it keeps updating all of them to either 0 or 1 like I have one that has been submitted on 2006-06-20 now the seven days arent up.. there is still one more day remaining.
Updating Table
I have two tables: table1: id code 1 2 3 aa 4 table2: id code2 1 2 3 xx 4 zz I am looking for a way to update table1 with some sort of sql statement. I looked into update and joinn but I couldn't find any relevant information. The reason I don't have any success is prbably because I don't have the correct keyword.
UPDATE Not UPDATING
I have a small script that allows family members to update their Profile/Contact information that is kept in a MySQL table. For some reason it's NOT updationg the info in the table yet NO mysql_errors are output when I go to update some data. In other words it executes my script just fine, but no data is changed (updated). What I've tried: 1) Tried connecting with my admin user_name/pass_word to MySQL and still doesn't change the data. So I assume the 'user account' has correct permissions to "update" data. 2) Quadruple checked all field names in MySQL table and all form fileld names and all are correct.(MySQL would put out an error if they we'ren't right, anyway)
Can You Use SET And VALUES When Updating DB Entries
I'm writing a quick script in PHP to update user details that have already been submitted, but for some reason I can't get the following code to update the DB PHP mysql_query("UPDATE users SET(address1, address2, address3, county, postcode) VALUES ('$add1', '$add2', '$add3', '$county', '$postcode')")or die (mysql_error()); Could anyone explain why?
Updating Data With A Select
Rather than explain it in normal english, how about... SQL? Would this work? UPDATE Listings SET approved = 2 WHERE MemberID = (SELECT MemberID FROM reports WHERE Website = 1)
Updating Multiple Tables
My webserver is running an older version of MySQL (3.23.56 ). I am trying to update a table based on criteria from two tables, and I can't seem to get the syntax quite right. Here is what I tried: UPDATE (member, unit) SET member.status_id = 3 WHERE member.unit_id = unit.unit_id AND unit.etime > 0 Does anyone know an older syntax to do this?
MyODBC - Updating Joins
I am using MyODBC (35017) in VB and i get an error when I try and update a recordset which involves a join. Surely one isnt limited to only single tables?
