Why Dont Shared Hosting Accounts Provide Stored Procedures And Triggers?
i am searching for 3 days now for a reliable, fast hosting company, which supports stored procedures and triggers on mysql5. most of them dont support this, because mysql5 has a design-flaw in which it stores procedures and triggers on a root level-area (tables mysql information_schema). due this logic, most of the hosting companies wont allow you to create/run procedures and triggers. funny, that hosting companies forbid you to use new technologies and methods to build faster.

Mysql And Triggers/stored Procedures
I have a question regarding the use of triggers. I have difficulties implementing trigger that let's say reacts before/after select statement (select of user), and increments the counter value (of the selected user). Is there a way to achieve this through triggers, or it's not possible?

Socket Programming With Stored Procedures/triggers
I'm currently working on a project where we may need publish/subscribe functionality (ie. a client registers an interest in a certain event, and the server will publish an update notice to the client when that event occurs). One way I was thinking of doing this is to create an AFTER INSERT trigger on the table in question and get it to somehow notify either the middleware (a daemon running on localhost) or the client (a standalone java app running on a remote machine) that a change has occurred. To do this I'd most likely need to write to a socket from within the trigger or stored procedure. Does anyone know if this is possible? I've had a brief look in the MySQL documentation and nothing seems to jump out at me.

Can Arrays Be Used In Stored Procedures And Triggers In Mysql?
I was trying to use arrays in stored procedures but it resulted in syntax errors.Is there any way to use arrays in stored procedures. I have one more question,in triggers if we want to check each column of a table if updated ,is there any way that i can write then in a loop. In the example given below I tried to check change for each column in a table.If there are 10 columns then I have to wirte 10 if statements. Is there any way that I list all the columns of the given table with in a trigger and write loop that contain a if statement that works for all the columns. create trigger updata after update on dataid_list for each row BEGIN if NEW.databaseid <>OLD.databaseid then insert into view_changes SET old=OLD.databaseid,new=NEW.databaseid, operation='UPDATE',column_name='databaseid' end if; if NEW.databasename <>OLD.databasename then insert into view_changes set old=OLD.databasename,new=NEW.databasename, operation='UPDATE',column_name='databasename' end if; END;

How Often Is Best To Create New Database, Migrate Data With Shared Hosting?
I have got a web site that I have ben working on since March, 2007. It is a news reporting web site. It is replacing an older web site. I created a new database (it uses the MySQL database) last March when I started working on the new web site. I have migrated all of the news content from the old web site database to the new web site database. I have a shared web hosting. It's my understanding that the hosting service provider fills up one server with databases then starts a new server with databases. For example, the IP for the server that is hosting the current database for the new web site is 10.6.166.5 I just created a new database (the hosting allows you to have ten databases per shared hosting). The IP for the server for the recently created database for the new web site hosting is 10.6.166.92 If the servers are ordered sequentially there have been 87 new servers filled up with databases since last March (i.e. 10.6.166.92 recently created IP minus 10.6.166.5 March, 2007 IP equals 87 servers). The problem with migrating the nine-month old database to the new database is that I have got over a thousand news stories and two thousand pictures stored in the database with the 10.6.166.5 IP address. I would have to copy and paste all of the data into the phpMyAdmin program or write a PHP script that would automate the process. Is there any benefit to migrating the 10.6.166.5 March, 2007 IP database over to the more recently created 10.6.166.92 IP database? Would it be reasonable to expect the more recently created database to perform better over the next 12 to 18 months than the one created nine months ago?

IDE For Stored Procedures
I am trying to create stored procedures in MySQL. Does anyone have a suggestion on a good IDE to use. I have been working with the MySQL Query Browser but it generates errors very often and is shut down by Windows. When I make changes to my procedure, it doesn't seem to always change what is being executed. Furthermore, sometimes the procedure just disappears from my database. I am starting to think that the stored procedure language in MySQL is just not reliable. Am I wrong on this?

C Api And Stored Procedures
i've been looking into using stored proecdures, and have got some up and running correctly from the command line, i need to use them from within a c program using the c api. i have the c api set up correctly, and connect to the db and can run queries fine. but if i change my query to calling a stored procedure it doesn't work: "mysql_real_query( mysql, query, strlen(query) )", query = "CALL myStoredProc(21);" can the c api even call a stored proc? i thought this would be okay as running a query is running a mysql query, and i assume this will execute any mysql statement. however my stored proc ALWAYS returns 0 rows affected. the help docs have something called prepared statements - though i think these are different from precompiled stored procs.

GUI For Stored Procedures In MySQL?
I have a website that is using MS SQL Server 2000 with ASP scripting. I want to switch over to MySQL, but I'm just sticking my toes in the water at the moment to see if it makes sense. One of my favorites things about MS SQL is being able to use the Enterprise Manager as a GUI in constructing VIEWS that I later turn into stored procedures. EM makes it super simple to link tables and create a query. It basically writes the source code for you as you go and you can test run it interactively until you get the results you want. I then take the resultant source code and paste it into a stored procedure, which in turn is called by my website script. This allows a relative novice like me to manage a somewhat complex database structure. My question is: does the MySQL GUI allow for the management of stored procedures in a similar manner? Can I create a view and just "cut-and-paste" the source into a dialog box that will then create the stored procedure for me? Does MySQL allow for the visual management of stored procedures within its GUI?

Stored Procedures Efficiency
We have a function that generates a large set of data based on certain business logic. Curretly this business logic is handle by php. A very complex php page is written to fetch data from mysql when client browser initiates the process, do the necessary calculations and then write to a new table and then display the output of that table on client browser. Whenw e ar edealing with about 250,000 records and between the time that user initiates the process and see the final result, there is along delay. I am juts wondering if PHP is the best application to use business logic in this type of scenario of is anyone things using mysql stored poceudures may help to handle the business logic. My questions about mysql SPs: 1. Dooes anyone thing it provides more speed and efficiency over our current method. 2. Is it reliable o use SP in Mysql 5? 3. Why people use SP typically?

Stepping Through Stored Procedures

Understanding Stored Procedures
I've never used stored procedures and need to understand what they are exactly. I want to know if a stored procedure can do this: Looking at the picture above, is the stored procedure table placed in the database? I'd like a way to access the average ratings fast without bogging down my server. For instance, if the averaged ratings table is updated once an hour even once a day, I'd be happy. I just don't want the averages being calculated everytime any user wants to see another users average. Note that I may not need all of the users ratings all the time. I may just need one, five, or ten at a time. Think of these averages as the star ratings each book has on amazon.com. Their servers would crash if they had to keep calculating the exact star rating for each book. Is this what stored procedures do? Someone please shed some light on the subject.

DB Structure And Stored Procedures
I`ve got a few questions about DB structure for which diagram I`ve attached to this post. 1. What do you think about it, generally 2. I expect a lot of records to be stored in News and Events tables, so how should I manage with the oldest ones? I think, to optimize receiving latest data, the oldest records should be removed from main tables News/Events to tables like ArchivedNews/ArchivedEvents. But what about tables: News_has_ImageFiles, Events_has_ImageFiles. They should be created together with Archived* ones? Or maybe I got it to complicated. All I know is that all data is important and after a while they should be dropped into archives. 3. What do you think about stored procedures especially in case of simple queries like "select * from x". I study with guy who loves SP so much that he creates it for even such queries. He explains that all logic is on the DB side and that`s why it`s easier to manage and secure db. He is a C# + MSSQL programmer. But, how about SP in PHP+MySQL environment? On the one hand less data is sent by client to server. On the other hand DB is doing everything so it might be overloaded when too many requests are sent. What is your opinion about it?

Returning Msg From Stored Procedures
I`m learning how to use SP in MySQL and have some doubts about returning msg from SP.

END IF; SELECT msg; END $$ DELIMITER ; SP returns always one msg and it`s easy to use it later in app code i.e. PHP. I`d like to ask if this aproach (with select returning msg) is acceptible? Or maybe I should use OUTPUT variable inside SP to get such info?

Question About Stored Procedures
I have never used stored procedures in the past. Just the other day I started to ponder if SPs are beneficial for getting around long query parsing. For example, on my website I have a query that is 300 characters in length and selects 30 columns. THIS IS A HUGE query; so I would assume that the database query parser has to do a heck of a job computing the query. SELECT column1,column2...column30 FROM profiles WHERE user_id=[USER_ID] LIMIT 1 Also since the database is on different server, the PHP server has break it up into packets and then send the request to the database server. Then you know what happens from there. But if Stored Procedures were to be used, then the the query would only be CALL profiles([USER_ID]); now this query is 16 chars in min and 22 in max (ranging from user_id 1 to 100,000+). Soooooooo, when a stored procedure is setup in MySQL, is the original query just masked with a function? Or does MySQL optimize the query to a more native database request (something that the database can understand more efficiently than a regular query)? And is this solution going to benefit me in any way?

ASP.net And MySQL And Stored Procedures
Hopefully this is simple and I'm making too much of it... here it goes... First part of the question (which I'm hoping most can answer) I have googled and googled and gave up in the end of trying to find a clear example of creating a stored procedure USING a parameter in MySQL. ANY help or simple direction to a tutorial would be awesome. Second... I have downloaded the evaluation of Visual Studio 2005 to get used to asp.net. I'm using MySQL database, please note I have installed and patch all the revelant dot net components and plugins to get it to create a connection string to MySQL Server. Though it doesnt look liek the VS GUI wants to communicate with MySQL leaves it up to you to create the SQL. (Which isn't a problem.) But... I want it to work with Stored Procedures (you see Visual DOES let you use exisiting stored procedures contained within your database server) .... Which points back to question one, but anyway the point of question two is has anyone else experience an attempt to get MS Visual Studio 2005 and MySQL working together? Note: I can already pull in data from MySQL using coded connection string within the backend code of a .net page.

Stored Procedures & Filesystem Functions
I've seen this done with MSSQL, I'm wondering if there is a way to do it with MySQL 5.0. I want to have a table where each record stores some meta data about a file.

If I delete a row, I want it to automatically delete the associated file from the disk as well. The problem is that I don't see any filesystem functions. Is this functionality missing from MySQL?
