MYSQL :: Setting Max_allowed

Setting Max_allowed_packet
I can't seem to set max_allowed_packet on server restart. Typically, to set it higher I've been restarting mySQL through the command prompt using the --max_allowed_packet=64M, but I want this to happen by default on server restart.
I tried editing my my.ini file with no success.
I've tried adding the lines:
max_allowed_packet=64M
--max_allowed_packet=64M
max_allowed_packet=64M
max_allowed_packet=67108864
and
--max_allowed_packet=67108864

Still, on server restart it always is the default 1048576.

Setting The Max_allowed_packet Size?
I am bumping up against the max_allowed_packet size in my vanilla install of MySQL that installed with SuSE 9.1. I would like to up that to 32M or so, since it seems to be set at 1 M.

So... How do I do this through the command line? I tried:
mysqld --max_allowed_packet=32M

However, my mysql server is running, so I can't change the value. Assuming that I just boot up into KDE with the root account, how do I make this permanent change? What file do I change? What commands?

--max_allowed_packet
I'm moving an existing mysql db to a new one. I made a dump and tryed to load it doing shell> mysql -uroot -p myDbName < myDumpFile.sql.

prevously I changed --max_allowed_packet to 32M; in my.cnf, and the new values was accepted.

but the operation fails with --max_allowed_packet error on the first blob record exceeding 1M; (the biggest blob value in around 1,8M);

I tested the dump file loading it in a test db on the old server and it worked.

Max_allowed_packet
NOt sure if this is the right forum even for this question but on my unix shell box i am trying to adjust the max_allowed_packet to the database because i'm transfering a 145mb sql file. I have mysql 4.23 on the box and I have already tried the command msq> --max_allowed_packet=200m and it doesn't do anything.

Max_allowed_packet
I used sqlyog GUI for mysql and I want to store sound file in my database. I used oracle before using mysql. I know sql. So the problem is that I want to store sound file I made a blob and trying to store sound file but mysql gives an error message max_allowed_packet bigger so tell me the solution.

Max_allowed_packet
I am trying to put a large file into mysql. but I get this error "Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet'"

It went in sql part and typed:
set max_allowed_packet = 5000000;
As the result I recieved: "Your SQL-query has been executed successfully (Query took 0.0003 sec)". but again when I type: show variables like 'max%' ; I see the same amount of msx_allowed_packet.

I should say that I have no access to the server and I only have access through cpanel.

Max_allowed_packet
I am using phpmyadmin through Cpanel.
I tried to put a large file into a longblob but I got this error: "Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet'".
then I used: set max_allowed_packet = 5000000; and I got a successful message but still I have the same problem. if i use:
show variables like 'max%' ;

max_alloowed_packet is still around 1 MB, what should I do?

Max_allowed_packet Not Persisting
I can't seem to get the max_allowed_packet setting to take effect.

When I add it to my.cnf it has no effect.

If I set it manually using:

set max_allowed_packet = 45000000

I see it works but doesn't persist between reboots..

Any suggestions?

Whre To 'max_allowed_packet'
While transferring large files into blob's I get an error stating that the packet is to large and that i can change that with the value 'max_allowed_packet'. Does any body now where i can find this variable in? I've seached my.cnf but no result, or should i add it in my.cnf?

Changing The Size Of 'max_allowed_packet'
It happens that when I run an server-intensive script, I get this error:

MySQL Error : Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet' bytes
Error Number : 1153

I already figured out that I need to set the max_allowed_packet size a bit higher. The problem is that I can't find out how.

When I type in my console (I am root) "find / my.*" it doesn't provide me the location of the file to edit. I use CentOS. Does anyone know where I can find this file, or change this value?

MySQL 4.0, Max_allowed_packet And Blob Insert
I'm running MySQL 4.0.24 on Debian Linux and have a problem with a very large blob insert query - it always fails with "#2020: Got packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet'". I searched the docs and found some references that this value can not be greater than 1 GB with MySQL 4.x - indeed, when I change it to some value greater than 1 GB, it has no effect, the value just stays at 1 GB (1073740800 Bytes).

The query is from an application (mnoGoSearch), so I can't just go and split the query into smaller ones. The tables in question are all in MyISAM format.

Error - Got A Packet Bigger Than Max_allowed_packet

My max_allowed_packet = 1047552

Someone help suggest me how can i insert those XML to my Database and What is the reason for this Issue and how to Overcome this?

MySQL Max_allowed_packet Variable - Fedora Linux
I tried to insert some large amount of text in mysql and used "Long Text" data type.

But I am not able to insert a text that is having about 1.2 million characters in it.

It is showing an error: "DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Got a packet bigger than
'max_allowed_packet' bytes".

I used PERL script for database population and using Fedora Linux OS with pentium 2.4 Ghz Processor and 512 MR RAM.

Anyone kindly tell me how to change the value for the max_allowed_packets variable in linux environment.

I already asked for the same in Windows 2000 and got the result throught this Forum. Anybody Please tell the same for Linux.

"max_allowed_packet" Error
I get the following query error:

Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet' bytes
How can I change this value?

Setting Up
Im wanting to set mysql/php on my mac. Im wondering if installing mamp is the same as installing each component seprerately. Can i get away with mamp or should i go through and set it up manually?

Setting Up An ISP
I am trying to figure out how to setup an ISP. I have
broadband in my shop and was thinking, I could setup the house to call into
my network and connect to the Internet through my DSL. I have servers with
Mandrake 10.1 for web/mail/ftp. Was wondering if this could be done and
what needs to be done for it to work?

Setting Up
I need to setup on which directories on my hosted servers. I am a member of a volunteer organization, but would like to have a wiki posting to help promote some of the events that have lower turnouts. Also to get comments and perhaps media from some of the more successful events.

I'm very new to this and am still reading up on some reference materials, but would like to have something tangible to work off of. Our budget is limited as well so I opted for the low budget plan for now, so I am still uncertain of the bandwidth I need.

Setting It Up
I need help on setting mySQL 4.0 on my windows 2000 small business edition server. how exactly do i do it? its downloaded, and set-up, now how do i use it?

Setting Value
I have a table (cont_id) with an auto_increment primary key, and I had deleted entries with much higher numbers than others.Those entries are no longer there, but auto_increment sets cont_id based on the high-number entry I deleted.Is there a way to re-set auto_increment so it adds +1 to the highest-number value for cont_id among the existing entries?

Setting A New Value
I'm trying to design an internet forum these days ...
In my database i have got a field called (ID) which represents the id of the topics and i have assigned it an (auto_increment) attribute...
My problem is that when i delete all the topics from the forum and after that add a new topic to the database the (ID) of that new topic continues to increment from the last deleted topic,
so how can i set the (ID) of the new topic to 1 in case all the previous topics were deleted?

Setting Up Tables
I'm having trouble figuring out the table setup and normalization I'll need to accomplish my goal.

Basically on my website I want students to register and from there they can log in and fill out what college they go to and create a list of courses they are taking and add/delete assignments for each course, and add grades they receive for each course.

I need help determining what tables I'll need and how I want to link them.

Let's say a STUDENT adds 6 COURSES and then 10 assignments in each course along with 8 grades he has received in the past week (to calculate GPA). How would I go about setting this up?

Setting Up Problemo
IM a database virgin and am wanting to get in to server side scripting.
Ive been trying to set up mysql on my machine by following this tut:
http://www.sitepoint.com/article/php...1-installation
Now ive got the mysql downloaded and installed n my machine and ive got to the point where ive opened the command prompt (im on windows xp) to installing mysql as a system device ( right towards the end of the first page in the tut).
Now ive got mysql in program files si im typing exactly this:
c:programfilesmysqlin>mysql-nt --install
but it doesnt work. Says the system cannot find the path specified but to get to the bin folder i literally go c rive then programfiles then the mysql folder then theres the bin folder right there.
Any ideas what i could be doing wrong. I dont have apache installed or anythig yet becuase the tut hasnt told me to. Is it all case sensitive, should there be a space between program and files?
any ideas?

I found it doesn't support my mother tougue.

How can I set it support korean language?

Setting Up A Database
I have just installed mySQL v.5 on my Windows VPS Remote Desktop.
In the past I've use shared hosting and simply followed the directions
of the web host when creating a database.

I simply need a single database created, a single user created for the database and password. And to grant permissions to that user.

Rather than read the manual, I was hoping someone could instruct me on accomplishing this, please.

Setting All Values To 0 And Some To 1
Is there a single query I can run that will set all values of a single column to 0, but set some values to 1?

somthing like:

Setting Up MySQL On Mac OS X
I'm a novice Unix user, and I can't get MySQL set up properly on my
Mac. It seems to have installed OK, but when I try to run the
mysql_install_ db script, I get errors. I can't set the root password
either that the documentation tells me to.

As background, I just want to use MySQL to work with databases and PHP
and HTML to set up web pages for database input and output. I'm running
MySQL on my own machine at home, and have no use for passwords or any
other administrative functions. I'm just looking to use the program to
set up and query databases.

Can anyone point me to a way to avoid all the UNIX admin stuff and run
the database? I can get in, but the mysql database doesn't appear when
I hit SHOW DATABASES as the tutuorial says, and I can't access or
create new databases. I think all this may have something to do with my
user account on my machine, but I'm not savvy enough to know how to
override permissions, be root, or any of that stuff. Any hints?

Setting All Instances Of A Value To Zero?
I am writing a basic CMS for a project and i need to be able to set every instance of a value to zero in a mysql database.

eg. there are 20 entries, each with the value '1' in the 'default' column. I want to change all of their 'default' values to 0 in one query.

How can i do this?

Setting Up Defaults
Is there a way to set-up defaults to the fields using some SQL statment instead of going into each field and entering default values.

Setting Up Database
im going to use mysql for my database and then i will you asp for programming. im using windows xp pro in a lan. can the computer in the lan access my database thru webpages hosted on my computer using IIS.

Setting Up A MySQL Db
how's it done? I have only ventured as far a local Access type db up until now, but I now need a db "out there" that can store info submitted from a form on one of my websites. I have recently been experimenting with phpBB as a piece of open-source (free) software that taps into MySQL on my webspace, and seems to take almost all the hard work out of setting up a complex forum.

It there some software that will do a similar job for me with a db? And can such a db download its data to a local db, like Access?

Setting Replication Up !
I am trying to set server replication up but am struggling to get binary logging enabled on the master -

DB - mysql 3.23
OS - Win2k

I have added the log-bin entry on the master - but if I do a SHOW MASTER STATUS they are all shown as NULL -

Setting The ORDER BY
ok say a field name in a table is called "type" and there are 4 possible values for the "type" field (car, boat, motor, rv). I dont want to order it by ascending or descending i want all the rows labled car under the "type" field to apear first. and the same for rv, boat, and motor. How would i acieve this??

Setting Up A Username
I am both the user and the admin. I am using winXP, and I am the root. This is all happening on one laptop since I am using Apache as a server. I have to ONLY provide mysql with my password to get into my database.

My Q is how can I assign an actual username to myself, so MySQL connects my password that is already in use with the new username which I don't know how to create?

Setting Up MySQL
I set up MySQL, obviously not right.

When I attempt to use the command:

mysql -u root -p

I am then asked to type in my password. I do that and then

ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query.

I run Win XP and Norton Internet Security.

Setting Up MySQL
I tried removing MySQL But when asked for my password it would let me type it & Im log in as admin. Please Help ASAP I need a MySQL Project done. here is the terminal line:

[flash-AlPB-1GHz:/usr/local] chadelso%
[flash-AlPB-1GHz:/usr/local] chadelso% cd /usr/local/mysql
[flash-AlPB-1GHz:/usr/local/mysql] chadelso% cd /usr/local
sudo rm mysql
sudo rm -rf mysql-3.23.47-apple-darwin5.1-p
[flash-AlPB-1GHz:/usr/local] chadelso% sudo rm mysql

Setting Up On Windows XP
1) I can run MySQL in a command prompt and create databases when I am logged into it at root happily. But then my application which hasnt got root access cannot see the database. How do I set up MySQL such that myApp can access a database created by root?
At present if I log in to MySQL using MySQL -u MyAPP
I cannot access the database that I created when I logged in as MYSQL -u root

MS Visual Studio 6 question.
2) I have copied all the .h files into my include directory, and the lib files to the library directory. I have fixed the slight bug in the header files that means the system cant define SOCKET (#define __LCC__)

If I just include the headers and compile it all works well. As soonas I try to use some of the C API commands I get linker errors which implies that the library is not loaded. I have added the library and I still get errors. What am I doing wrong here (or more likely, any suggestions for other things I can try?)

Setting Up Users
I have a website and db where people can login get setup and then enter information into the db, everybody has a unique client number, can I create a user for the db when they set themselves up as a user and restrict them from changing anything except data that is connected to their client number?

Setting Variables In My.cnf
how can I issue these client commands from inside the my.cnf file?

tep_db_query('set collation_connection=euckr_korean_ci', $link);
tep_db_query('set character_set_results=euckr', $link);
tep_db_query('set character_set_connection=euckr', $link);
tep_db_query('set character_set_client=euckr', $link);

Setting Value Of Row_count()
i have a stored procedure consisting of several delete statements and i
want to be able to return the "Query OK, 0 rows affected" such that the
total number of rows deleted are summed up rather than returning the
number of affected rows of the last statement.

the number of rows deleted can be obtained through the ROW_COUNT() and i
can add it up. but how do i set the value of the "Query OK, XXX rows
affected"?

Setting Password
I am using MySQL 4.1 on Win XP.I forgot my root password and I am trying to reset it. I am using the SQLyog GUI to manipulate my DB.I have a guest password stored in SQLyog and can access all of my databases.But I can't use SQLyog to change the password b/c it uses the new password alogorithm which is hashed to 32 characters opposed to 16 in the old alogorithm.I was wondering a way to reset my root password.I only have minimal privileges on this account such as SELECT.

Just in case anyone missed it,I can't log into my MySQL command line client since I don't know my root password.I would normally use OLD_PASSWORD('password') from there.

Setting Password
i've created my database and now i want to access it through php so im using:

mysql_connect('localhost:3306', "username", "password") or die(mysql_error());

but i haven't yet set a password and don't know how to, so when i run the file it comes up with the error:
mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user......

is this because i need to set a password and username,if so then how? or is it maybe another different problem?

Using And Setting Up My First Database
1. how do I being in setting up my mySQL database which will be storing files consisting of TXT, SWF and images.
2. I want to be able to call these items from the database using PHP links and MySQL/PHP integration. Any tutorials on the web available for that that anyone knows of?
3. Easability. Where can I go to learn how to optimize all my code?

Setting Up New Item
I use myphpadmin and I am a beginner with it. I have this text based game and for items it's weapon, armor and shield.

I went to insert and did the fields and added a new item called "Herb" which heals your character 10 health. So now I go to the game to the admin control panel and its there but it can only be a weapon, armor or shield. I need to add a new class for "items" which is a healing item.

Setting Up A Relation
Is there any reason why two tables created with a relation in MySQL
wouldn't adhere to what you would think is a property of the relation?

Case in point: I have a 1:n 'relation' where I can insert values into
the dependent table while making up an entry for the foreign key from
the independent table (whether it exists or not). I shouldn't be able
to do that, but MySQL doesn't complain.

Setting Value For All Records
How would i go about populating a new column based on an existing column
pluse a bit of text.

i.e i have a column fldID which contains numerics 1,2,3,4 etc and i want to
poulate a column fldIMAGE with values 1.jpg, 2.jpg etc.

Setting Up A SQL Table
I want to use this:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM blogroll ORDER BY rand(" . time() . " * " . time() . ") LIMIT 1";

To pull random code into my WordPress theme (I will need to use lots of these random entries, so this method looks best, ATM).

Do I use this by creating a table in my database and replacing "blogroll" in the above line with the name of the table(say: randomphp)?

I will try this as soon as I figure out how to fill in the fields in the new table.

If I am correct about what I need to do please help me out with the fields on the table creation screen in phpMYadmin:

Field?
The code I want to put in place of the SQL string in my theme, right (a php include to be specific)?

Type?

Length/Values*?

Attributes?

Null?

Default**?

Extra?

primary, index, unique, or ---?

full text?

Setting A Maximum
I'm trying to get summaries of articles from my database, and I've tried a couple things though none of them seemed to be correct.

In my SELECT statement:

SELECT * FROM articles WHERE id=$_GET[id]

I want to specify how many characters(maximum) it should return. The field I want to limit is longtext and there are three other fields (2 varchars, and a date) but none go over 30.

I assume that this is possible since creating a separate field that contains a summary would be extra overhead.

Setting Up MySQL
This is how the server is started:
mysqlinmysqld --defaults-file=mysqlinmy.cnf --standalone --console

There's no "--old-passwords" but it's still not working.
I have Xampp, btw.
In my.cnf I took out the "old_passwords" declaration. I restarted the server a few times and it's still not working.

Setting Up The Server
I keep getting an error number 1045 access denied whenever I try to run MYSQL Administrator. I just set this up. What did I forget to do?

I installed MySQL Server 5.0, the administrator, the query browser and the system tray monitor. What am I forgetting to do here?
