MYSQL :: Write/Move/Save Pdf To MySQL Table?

Copy/move Whole Table
I'm doing a conversion on a customer database and I'd like to take this chance to a lil learning

I have v4_customer:
v4_id | login | points

and v5_customer:
v5_id | login

I want to move it to customer_conversion:
v5_id | login | points

Is there a way to do a table wide join (or equivelant) on the field login and move all of the info to customer_conersion? The table is about 15,000 records. It will only be run once or twice on a development machine, but I figure if there's a better way to do it, why not learn. Is there a better way than to loop through each row?

Move MySQL Table To Another MySQL Table
Hi Hope you can help little stuck with this trying to move a table to another table and then delete after.
This is the code:
php

mysql_select_db("databasename"); (this works its the next bit)

$result = mysql_query("INSERT INTO $poarchive SELECT * FROM $poform" )
or die($errCon . mysql_error());

echo "Database has been moved to the archive and has been Deleted!";

mysql_close($con);

Error message:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'SELCT * FROM poform' at line 1

Search And Write, Or Write And Recover?
The problem: I need to generate a 'unique string' for each row in a table. I already use auto_increment for system dependencies between tables.

What is the best approach one of these or another?

After generating a candidate 'unique string' the two strategies that came to mind are:

1. to then search the table's column to see if it is already assigned; locking the table for write while searching and writing the new row, or

2. set the column to UNIQUE when defining the table. Just go ahead and write the new row if you get a "non-unique" exception, generate another 'unique string' and try again.

I've tried both on a small XP laptop and get "lock timeout exceptions" rather quickly using #1. But replace those with lots of re-writes when there starts to get "collisions" of 'unique string's.

Delete From One Table But Move The Info To Another

Move Records From 1 Table To Another And Including 1 Field
I've created a table called `temp` and I want to move all the rows in `temp` to `songs` based on:

`temp`.`title` -> `songs`.`title`
`temp`.`artist` -> `songs`.`artist`
`temp`.`catalog` -> `songs`.`catalog`
NOTHING -> `songs`.`userid`

There is no field in the temp table that has this value, i will need to insert it along with each record. How would I go about doing that, without looping through 1 query and inserting each as I go?

InnoDB: Right For Write-heavy Table? Server Tuning?
I've decided to merge 4500 identical tables into one. They were previously partitioned with one table per user of the system, but I'm imagining I may not need to do this anymore for this particular table. I'd like to do so to reduce the number of files in this database's directory (currently over 15,000), to reduce backup complexity, and maybe improve performance. That's where I'm still unsure.

This is the summary table for W3Counter with fields website_id, date, unique_visits, return_visits, page_views. The website_id and date uniquely identify each row.

It is a write-heavy table (probably more than 99% INSERT/UPDATE compared to SELECT). I may be making things up, but I believe I remember InnoDB showing superior performance for this type of table. I'd imagine row-level locking would decrease lock contention when being hit by dozens of threads concurrently -- queries trying to update different rows would be allowed since that row isn't locked, unlike MyISAM where the entire table is locked by each query.

Merging all the tables into this one would mean starting with about 1.5 million rows and growing about 4500 per day.

So what do you think? Is InnoDB the right way to go for this table? Should I expect better performance than MyISAM for the inserts/updates? Should I expect the same or better performance on SELECTs that SUM() those counts over various date ranges, and sometimes group by WEEK(), MONTH() or YEAR() on the date column? I'm not sure whether the primary key is sufficient for that type of query, if a key on just the website_id would help those, or what. Any opinions?

My other reason for this thread is to get some pointers on tuning the server variables for InnoDB tables. There's much less written about this than those mainly applicable to MyISAM tables. Which are most important for a table like this? Right now no other tables will be InnoDB as the rest benefit greatly from MyISAM-specific features (like prefix compression on indexes and maintenance of row counts).

Mysql Save To A Temp File
In the later part of June a new Linux Mysql server was installed.
While mysqld was still running,the data folder was moved to a different
volume and a soft link to the new location was put in it's place.I
know, bad idea,but everything seemed to work fine, so I didn't think
anything of it.Today, the server had to be rebooted for the first
time since, and now all data since the folder move is gone. It's as if
mysqld was just using ram to cache everything, and not writing out
changes to disk.Is this true, that all data was only written to
memory and not disk, or is it possible that the data was written out to
a temporary location somewhere that I might be able to recover some of
this data from?

MySql Write Vs Read
Essentially I am faced with a design choice;

have an oft run (modifiable) query run every time any user wants to
run it, comparing criteria againt each and every user in the table and
delviering list OR saving that list (user/user/) so the next time all
that needs to be queried is the existence of a record in the table.

The basic tradeoff; version 1 there are many simultaneous queries of
the user db on complex search criteria; version 2 there are fewer but
their are as many far more simple queries to a much larger table, not
to mention many writes to same to keep the table current.

I know this is pretty vague, but I was wondering if in general there
is an area that mysql excels in vis a vis complex query smaller tables
simple query larger tables.

Question 2 is there anyway to guestiate the search/write times of a
user log in to both query and update? #Records, fields, etc? I'd like
to keep log in to < 10 seconds max.

How Do I Move My MySQL Datafiles From One File System To Another?
My Unix admin requested that I move my existing MySQL data files (of all varieties...INNODB's and any others) from their current locations to another file system on the same machine. How do I do this in MySQL?

[In Oracle, we would:

1) shut down the database instance
2) physically mv the data files from their current location to the target location.
3) startup the database (but not open the database, just "mount" it, which means that Oracle has opened the database control files [that contain file-location names])
4) issue an:
CODEALTER DATABASE RENAME
    'old_file-1','old_file-2',...'old_file-n'
    TO
    'new_file-1','new_file-2',...'new_file-n';

ALTER DATABASE OPEN;

How To Change Read/write Permission On Mysql Data Base.
I had a total crash and the server guy gave me all my data in a hand basket.. just kidding..

Actually I was given the data all zipped up and the mysql data bases were separate and they were the direct downloads as follows:
wp_comments.MYD
wp_comments.MYI
wp_comments.frm
all data was in this format.
I used SSH and uploaded it to the proper directory on the server and all is well at least as far as visitors seeing all the data.. but when I log into the site I get the following...

WordPress database error: [Table 'wp_options' is read only]
UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = 'O:9:"magpierss":18:{s:6:"parser";i:0;s:12:"current_item";a:0:{}s:5:"it ems";a:10:{i:0;a:12:{s:5:"title";s:13:"WordPress 2.2";s:4:"link";s:54:"http://wordpress.org/development/2007/05/wordpress-22/

I used SSH and tried to change the concerned files to writable and it works fine but the same error is generated.

I can go direct to the data base using myAdmin and cannot edit (write) to any table. It says the data base is read only.

On the same mysql area, I have another data base that was done via the normal way and I can write to it just fine.

I can find nothing to change to make the site writeable.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated..

SSH to the server and changing the files to writable has no effiect..

Mysql Master/Slave Read Write To Database Question
If I setup my database as master/slave and user enters data into the html form. This data is written to the master database. After html form submission user is directed to view.html to view the submitted data. The view.html page does the read from the slave. Would it be safe to assume that the data that user submitted would be written to master and immediately displayed in the view.html by reading slave data base?

Easiest Way To Back Up MYSQL Database To Move Over To Another Computer
I've been working through Sitepoint's Build Your Own Database Driven Website and I've decided to change which of my computer's I use as my test server. I installed Apache, PHP and MySql on the new "server" and tried to copy over my database folder, but I can't seem to get it to work in the MySql client. I looked through the documentation for information about maybe making a backup and then restoring it to the new server, but I was a little overwhelmed. Anyone have an easy suggestion to accomplish this. I'm sure it's much easier than I'm making it.

Save Changes
I'm working on a membership database (MySQL 4.1) with about 350 members. The client wants every change made to be recorded so that there is a record of what was changed. So they want what row was changed, what was changed within that row, when it was changed, and who made the changes. Is there a way to so this automatically in MySQL or do I need to set up a new table and alter all existing queries?
