Using Mysqldb
I have to move my database to a different system. Will using mysqldump to create a .sql file is going to dump only schema or is it going to dump data in the tables as well. I have stored many files in my database and i want to move both my schema as well as my data to a different system. I created a .sql fiile by command "mysqldump --user=root -p my_database > C:my_database.sql

MySQLdb Slow
I have a Python program that parses a file and inserts records into a database with MySQLdb. I recently upgraded to MySQL 5.0.8, and now my parser runs *really* slow. Writing out to CSV files is fine, but when I try to insert the same records in a MySQL5 database, it slows to a crawl. Using MySQL 4.1 seems fine. The data seems to be inserted correctly, it's just really slow.

Reference To Table Alias In From Clause To Be Used By Subquery InSelect Clause
I am using 5.0.26-NT on Windows 2000. I have need to use a reference in the outer from clause in a subquery in the select clause. Consider the following example: Select (select b.baitID from b where b.entrydate curdate()) as wantedBaitIDs from bait_tbl b; My actual need is more complex than this as part of it is a rough cross tab. If I try to define the table in the alias, not only do I lose whatever benefits there are in the particular join I would use in the outer from clause but would also require the join to be defined in each subquery, requiring it to be examined each time it is used. To be absolutely clear, in this example I want to use bait_tbl with the alias of b in the subquery. In my actual query I reference the same table twice with a different join set for each. I need to reference a particular alias as that has the join set I need.

###### 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.

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.

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?

PhpMyAdmin :: Not Updating
I had PHP Triad installed for a while now and decided to upgrade php, mysql, and phpmyadmin. I upgraded php and mysql, but I'm having trouble with phpmyadmin. I downloaded version 2.6.1. In my apache folder, there is a directory for phpmyadmin. All I did was deleted that folder and made a new empty one with the same name. Then I copied all the new phpmyadmin files in there. BUT for some odd reason when I go to localhost/phpmyadmin, it brings me to the same old version! (2.2.3). What am I doing wrong here?

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)

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 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 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 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?

Checking Then Updating A Table
I have a form which fills a 'vehicledata' table with a dataitem and datatype dataitem = saab, datatype = manufacturer dataitem = petrol, datatype = fueltype dataitem = automatic, datatype = transmission etc.. I then I have a form through which a vehicle is added to a 'vehicles' table, with the vehicle data being picked from the vechicledata table. The 'vechicles' table has a colum for each of the datatypes above. I'm now working on an edit function, so that the names of the dataitems can be edited (if a spelling mistake was made etc). I need to check the 'vehicles' table, to warn the user that a dataitem is being used, and the dataitem will be updated. (and then updating any incorrect instances to the new dataitem name). But I'm stuck with the following: This means checking the whole ''vehicles' table (looping through each datatype column) for the dataitem, and then updating the whole table. I can't work out how to do this! Does anyone have any suggestions?

Table Data Updating
I've heard that oracle will update data in a table when a specific event occurs and was curious if mySQL will do the same? For my site I'm designing a comment section that will be attached to my news section. My database organization scheme will consist of two tables. One table that will hold all the news entries and another that holds all the comments. Thus, when browsing the news section visitors initially only access the news table, and once they click on the comments tab then they will access the comments table. Figured this was the best way to organize the data. However, I want the news table to contain the number of comments that exist for that news-section so that the count can be displayed. My question is how can I make the news table update its data column containing the count for comments when the comments table recieves an update? Is this possible at all in mySQL? If there is a resource someone could point me in let me know, or if anyone has suggestions of a type of hack that would suffice as well

Updating A Table Which Contains Many To Many Relations
1- Delete the existing entries and insert the new entries. 2- Select the existing entries. Compare the existing and newly submitted entries and do a delete or insert or both depending on the options chosen. 1 is easy to do, but i have a faint doubt that recalculating the indexes can be time consuming. Two queries are required for each edit. 2 takes a bit more computing but the number of rows added or deleted is reduced. Two-three queries will be required. One is select, then insert or delete or both depending on the edits made by the user.

(in this case, there are 5 rows which have bin_id = 2, so valid remains 1. for the rest, there are too few rows of the respective bin_id, so i need to set valid to 0.

Which Script Is Updating MySQL
After three days looking for a bug somewhere inside the scripts made for four years in my company, this question came to my mind, and I thought it may be answered here: Is it anyway possible to know which script/call is accessing one table of my database and updating the data inside? It is very probable called from a PHP script and the database is MySQL v4.0. Does it provide any log or could it be places somewhere something to store the origin of the calls to the database?
