Slow To Get "C:/mysql>" Prompt


I'm setting up MySQL, Apache and PhP on my pc - Win98, 128meg to work on a project.

My problem is this - I have installed MySQL and find that if I go into it via the DOS prompt (C:/mysql/bin/mysqld) it takes at least 10 minutes before the C:/mysql> prompt appears and I can start using it ... this I'm sure is not right ? I have tried with the mysql admin tool but it too takes ages to load ???

Can't Get To Mysql Prompt
I just installed mysql, set a password on the root account, and tried logging in with:

I get several pages of output, and then it drops me back to the shell prompt. I need to start configuring user accounts, etc., and the docs provide instructions on how to do that from the mysql> prompt. How do I get it to 'keep' me in mysql,

Online MySQL Prompt
My host provides me with its own MySQL prompt, called phpMyAdmin (in cPanel). It is quite hard to use, because it keeps on jumping to different pages after each prompt and incorrectly names my databases as "username_whateverINameIt". Is there any way to use a regular MySQL prompt (DOS style) as is directed from my book?

MySQL Command Line Prompt
In DOS mode, we can use for example dir/w-p to break the whole page to sub-page.
In MySQL prompt window, when I type "show variables", it blooms about 190 rows, but I can't scroll BACK to first 1-50 rows, by resizing the prompt windows it won't help.
So, I think is there any additional keys for pause the page like DOS mode?

Cant Connect To Mysql At Command Prompt Error
please see attached file for error.

im a beginner. im following php/mysql book from site point. ive searched the forums already but couldnt find the solution.

i just installed IIS on windows xp, mysql and php.

im at command line and i get these (profanity removed) darn error messages. after 1 hour of re-reading chapters of the book i decided to bother you with this problem

in the book it says to check mysql is running by pressing ctrl +alt + del. then in "tasks" you should see "it" running. a) there is no tab called tasks when you press ctrl + alt + del. b) what is "it"

so i assume it (mysql) is running, since i dont really know because the instructions arent that clear for complete (profanity removed) silly billies like me

in another thread someone said "turn off your firewall then try again" - did that, didnt work

then from the command prompt i keep being told it cant connect (see screenshot)

Running Existing .sql File In Mysql Command Prompt?

Slow MySQL
mySQL has been running very slowly and I am getting errors. First I did 2 things I raised the ServerLimit number (apache) to allow for more connections, I also raised the max conncetions in my.cnf. I do not know if this took effect? That should have worked. But basically in phpmyadmin i get this error frequently. I am getting more traffic so I think it is that.

Why Does MySQL So Slow

I looked at these mysql pid and saw a lot of activities (about 400) while there are more 100 users online at this moment and lots of running under a the same pid number.

MySQL Slow
I had downloaded a few years back mySQL v3.51 installed but never used it. Now I wanted to convert some B-TREE databases to mySQL and did some testing via ODBC to insert 70,000 records: My results:

MS ACCESS: ~60,000 msecs
MYSQL v3.51 ~18,000 msecs

Impressed with the speed, I went ahead and got the latest MySQL v5.1. Uninstalled the older version, I had nothing there to preserve, so I did a simple new install with MySQL v5.1. I noticed the size of the files and BINEXE increasted by 1,000,000%. Ok, Bulky. Not a problem.

I reran the same ODBC test, and now I got:

MYSQL v5.1: ~450,000 msecs or 7.5 freaking MINUTES!

What the hell happen? Nothing was done. I'm knew to MYSQL. I just installed it with all the defaults. I did choose "developer's machine" for the "optimizer wizard"

I can't redistribute MYSQL v3.51 and force it down people's throats! I have to use what they are using already, if already installed. Not even my current system takes 1 minute to add 70,000 records. Why 7.5 minutes? All it is simple inserts/free statements.

Cmd 'Prompt'
I've recently had to re-build my dev box and as part of the re-build I've re-installed v4.1 (for Windows). I'd previously had v4.1 BETA installed and in that I had a my.ini file setting that customized the cmd prompt to show the current database and user. The trouble is that in the production version of 4.1 the same ini file setting has no effect. I'm using an ini file setting of

[mysql]
prompt=u@h-d>

This definately worked for me in 4.1 BETA and it's what the MySQL documentation state is the way to do it. Once logged in I can manually make the setting by doing:

mysql> prompt u@h-d>

MySQL Slow In Windows NT4
I am running the Apache web server, MySQL v4, and PHP on an NT4 server.
Apache runs great, but the auction software I am using (Web2035 Auction

Sometimes it takes 20-30 seconds to bring up an auction page from the items
table which has less than 200 records in it.

Can anyone can give me some pointers on where to start looking? (I don't
know if the bottleneck is with MySQL or PHP or what I might need to look at

MySQL Slow Starting Up
I am using a Windows 2003 Web Edition Server running IIS and MySQL 4.1. I had to restart the server the other day and it took MySQL almost 2 hours to come back up. I was watching it on my task manager and it went up to approximately 60,000k in 10k increments before I was able to access MySQL.

My CPU usage was hovering around 3% all this time. Everything else came up on the server just fine. This happens every time I have to restart my server. The reason I have to restart my server most of the time, is because MySQL locks up on me.

Is there any settings I can change that would help me here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One more thing to add. I am using the default my.ini file. We have almost 100 different databases on the server and have around 20000 tables within all of these databases combined. All of these tables are InnoDB tables.

Pretty much it hangs. I tried to connect with QueryBrower, did a Select Count(*) and just froze. I admit that I didn't wait for ever, yes I know I Select Count(*) takes a long time but I gave up after waiting 3x as long as I normal did. Also the logs screen froze in administrator.

Slow Running MySQL?
I'm hoping someone may have an idea what could be causing the slow loading pages of my web-site. I'm not positive, but I'm relatively sure that it's related to a problem with MySQL database.

I purchased a program called Sam3 for broadcasting our radio signal over the internet. The software requires the use of MySql in order to set up web pages for our web site.

The problem is, that while everything works GREAT (requests can be made from the site, songs can be searched, the history of what we've played shows up) the pages load PAINFULLY slow. Other users of this software have had no such problems so I'm at a loss.

I know from testing that the PHP script for the web pages is fine, I have plenty of bandwith both upload and download available on my DSL line, and while the computer running MySQL is behind a router I have tried plugging the DSL line DIRECTLY into the host computer and it makes no difference.

For all appearances it seems the problem is that it takes MySQL forever to gather and provide the information needed for these pages. Does anyone have any idea what I should be looking at to solve this problem?

I do not know the MySQL program at all, so I get somewhat lost when people start throwing out technical terms, but this has been really frustrating because no one else seems to have the problem and everyone so far has just told me to check the things I've already checked.

MySQL Connection Sometimes Slow
I have been developing an application in Visual Basic that accesses a MySQL database either on the local machine, or a remote machine. Locally, database connections run smoothly. However, when I try to connect to the remote system (another computer on my local network) some databases take longer to connect than others (sometimes 10 - 20 seconds).

The application usses the myvbql.dll (sorry lost the link, found it through google) wrapper around the libmysql.dll file to perform database actions. The application seems to hang when it tries to actually make the connection to the datatbase. This is only happening on the remote database server, and does not happen on every connection to that server.

Slow Remote MySql
We have a local (client) machine that runs a php application on windows using apache, the database for this application is on a remote server, which the client machine connects to via the servers ip number and the server accepts the connection from the client via the designated ip address (skip-resolve-address is set in MySql server and no dns addresses are used, only ip).

However, the php application when dealing with the data from the MySql server is still pretty slow. We've tried query cache, but still slow.

When I say slow, I mean page response and reloads take about 5 or 6 seconds. Is this expected from a remote server and using apache as we do for this application? When using a local MySql server the speed is pretty much instantaneous, but we need the remote server!

Also, in testing the remote MySql server with a program such as SQLyog, response to requests are very quick and queries take no time.

How could we go about testing for where the bottleneck is? Could it be apache and php (and where do we start looking for the problem? Local MySql server is nice and fast)?

MySQL Slow: Configuration To Blame/fix?
I have MySQL 5 running on a PC, and have grown used to the startling slowness of MySQL joins. The most recent disappointment is a straightforward self-join of a not-too-big (700K rows), indexed (on very-high-cardinality column FILE) table

create table temp2 as
select a.*, b.time as time2,
from temp1 a left join temp1 b
on a.file = b.file
and timestampdiff(HOUR,a.time,b.time) = 1;

that completed in 10 hours. (Indexing resulting table took 20 minutes). If this is not a problem with the programmer, or with MySQL, could it be a result of a mismanaged installation, one that could be fixed with a judicious re-configuration/choice of MySQL options?

Delay, Latency, Slow Mysql
I recently upgraded mysql from 3.23 to 4.0 and found that my websites using the mysql db had a 5 second delay, or latency. I searched for 2 days and found no answer to my latency problem until just a moment ago. I'd like to share the answer in case someone else finds this occurring to them as well.

I was using my real static ip in my website mysql address instead of 'localhost', localhost should have been used initially anyways. I am not real sure what my reasoning was when I initially chose to put in my static IP.

So, If you are like me and keep your stuff on your local machine, use 'localhost' instead of your static IP. At least it fixed my delay issues.

Remote MySQL Connection Slow
I have a website on a dedicated server that was running really slow, so I got another, much faster server and transferred the MySQL database to this server. However, now when I connect to the faster server's database using the slower server's PHP web pages, the overall page loads much slower than when the database was on the slower server.

Any ideas why this would be? Right now the host name is just an IP address. Does it need an actual resolved hostname to be fast? MySQL on the faster server is supposedly tweaked for fast service (my-huge.cnf).

How To Use The Command Prompt?
I am using openSUSE 11.0. I am a student in 3rd year of my computer science course. We have the database labratory this year and the college uses oracle. However I think that the queries that we use are pretty common to be used on any databse. I do not want to install another PIRATED copy of the Oracle DB and slowdown my Windows installation as I already have a Linux system running it.

My question is:

How do I use the mysql prompt to execute my sql queries? Is there any prompt which will allow me to input the queries directly via keyboard and show me the output there (much as the 'show databases' command does) on the prompt? If yes then how to do that?

Slow Performance After Falling Back To MySQL 3
Yesterday I have upgraded my linux box with a pair of Xeon 1G CPU and
reinstalled everything (it was a sinle Xeon 700). The default RH9
installation comes with MySQL 3.23.54. After the reinstallation I
found the machine was not as responsive as before. (It's not very
slow, but some lagging is noticed)

I was running Mysql-max 4.0.11 and the performance was ok, except the
slowness during the peak hours, which was regarded as normal. I would
like to know the differences between Mysql 3 and 4. Is the new version
making a significant jump in performance?

I also noticed the system eats up memory faster than before. With the
old setting the system never used up 60% of physical memory, even at
extremely high loading (30+). Now it easily used up 70% of memory.

MySQL Slow To Connect To Remote Database
I was running a PHP/MySQL web site with the database on the local web server. I needed to move the database off the webserver (located in the firewall DMZ) and onto its own machine (behind the firewall on our private network)

webserver:/# mysql -h 192.168.1.7 -u www-data -p

After I enter the password, it takes around 5-7s before I see the mysql> prompt.

MySQL Timing Out? Really Slow Queries, Already Indexed.
For whatever reason, MySQL does not seem to be executing. So, I ran a few stat functions and here is what I got:

Uptime: 220372
Threads: 39
Questions: 18748899
Slow queries: 808
Opens: 28723
Flush tables: 1
Open tables: 4096
Queries per second avg: 85.078

The "open tables" worries me for a few reasons. First, because it is 4kb (exactly, since it is divisible by 1024, evenly). This makes me think that maybe I am hitting a ceiling.

Second, there are a few variables in MySQL that equal this, and maybe it's a cap on something. Here are the variables that equal 4096:
query_cache_min_res_unit = 4096
table_cache = 4096
transaction_prealloc_size = 4096

Do any of those have anything to do with this? Am I even close? Are any of those values from mysql_stat a big deal?
