<Jax> :(
<Chrisx2> hey, how do i make a table in mysql from terminal on mandriva
<computron> inviso_ im trying what you said but i get an error that no db exists at ...information_schema
<Jax> mysql -u user -p youDB
<Jax> ^ Chrisx2
<inviso_> computron: you'll need to upgrade mysql to 5.0 for that to work
<kaber2> actually nm. i don't have access. heh :| the disk is totaly broken
<Jax> computron vers?
<inviso_> kaber2: ouch
<Chrisx2> erm whats the default p***, or how 2 change?
<kaber2> yea
<inviso_> !m Chrisx2 reset root
<SQL> Chrisx2: (How to Reset the Root P***word) : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Resetting_permissions.html
<computron> jax its access
<Jax> run: mysqladmin -u root p***word 'yourP***word'
<blackthorne> do mysql_install_db files get stored in /var/lib ?
<Chrisx2> erm i do mysql -u user -p youDB <- changed but says *** aint a table
<inviso_> blackthorne: typically, yes. /var/lib/mysql/mysql
<Chrisx2> any1?
<blackthorne> inviso, if i remove that dir and create it again should the user db's get clean ?
<inviso_> blackthorne: yes. Shutdown mysql before doing so and make backups first
<blackthorne> root@neo:..# pwd
<blackthorne> ..
<inviso_> Chrisx2: that didn't even make a tiny bit of sense. My only response was "buh?" which didn't seem very useful at the time
<blackthorne> has this ever happened to you?
<inviso_> blackthorne: eh?
<Chrisx2> i was told to type this mysql -u user -p youDB to make a table but it says youDB isnt a table
<Chrisx2> ...
<inviso_> Chrisx2: that wouldn't make a table and it wouldn't give that as an error message. That would log you in so you could create a table
<Chrisx2> how do i make a table?
<inviso_> !m Chrisx2 tutorial
<SQL> Chrisx2: (MySQL Tutorial) : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Tutorial.html
<kaber2> i guess about 50 people are goign to loose there accounts :/
<inviso_> kaber2: heh, why?
<kaber2> i have a box at ev1. the first drive failed..
<kaber2> ext3_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 2987992
<kaber2> ext3_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 262265
<kaber2> ext3_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 262264
<kaber2> EXT3-fs: hda5: 63 orphan inodes deleted
<kaber2> lots of stuff like that
<inviso_> ooo, excellent :) Good backups save lives
<kaber2> and i did a mysqldump in the morning, forgot to do a dump before made that drive the slave
<kaber2> yea
<kaber2> i need a script that automates the backup process
<kaber2> i didn't think we added new custoemrs
<kaber2> but we did :|
<kaber2> oh well. just put an annoucnement message
<inviso_> They're human. Send them chocolate if you're worried ;)
<kaber2> i can't seem to reset my dam root p***wrod though
<kaber2> heh
<kaber2> following these directions
<kaber2> http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html
<blackthorne> root@neo:/home/blackthorne# /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root p***word 'whatever'
<blackthorne> /usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
<blackthorne> error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using p***word: YES)'
<blackthorne> after a clean and succesfull install of mysqld...
<blackthorne> i've tried everything but no idea what can be the problem
<kaber2> lol. i'm getting the same thing
<kaber2> http://rafb.net/paste/results/JXw0TM26.html
<kaber2> started mysql with mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables
<inviso_> blackthorne: check for /root/.my.cnf and look for user= and p***=
<blackthorne> isn't this supposed to be the command that defined user and p***word ?
<blackthorne> inviso, anyway i had configured that file
<inviso_> kaber2: select User, P***word from mysql.user where User = 'root'
<inviso_> blackthorne: if it's setup, it would be using a p***word when you didn't have one set. That would cause the mysqladmin command to fail
<kaber2> Empty Set
<daniel`js> What's the best value to give to a field when you just want the values to be either '0' or '1'?
<inviso_> kaber2: how about where User LIKE "%root%" ?
<inviso_> daniel`js: TINYINT or ENUM
<daniel`js> inviso: Thought so, but which one is slightly faster? ;)
<daniel`js> enum?
<inviso_> daniel`js: actually, BIT or ENUM.. BIT for sure if you're on 5.0+
<kaber2> hmm
<daniel`js> Which I am =)
<kaber2> Select User, where User LIKE "%root%";
<kaber2> getting an error
<blackthorne> inviso, should i use mysqladmin ... -p and then enter the p***word?
<inviso_> kaber2: select User, P***word from user where User LIKE "%root%";
<daniel`js> Now let's say if I have a few fields that only have the value of 0 or 1, but they're tinyint at the moment, would it be okay if I just changed that to bit? (no warnings or errors)?
<inviso_> blackthorne: if it's a new install, you don't want -p or p***= defined. P***word is blank by default
<kaber2> No database selected
<inviso_> daniel`js: should be fine
<inviso_> !tell us about disclaimer
<SQL> inviso_ asked me to tell you this: We are in no way responsible for the data you will delete, proceed at your own risk and know that backups save jobs.
<kitchen> I thought backups saved data
<daniel`js> And jobs ;)
<inviso_> kaber2: do USE mysql; first
<kaber2> empty set
<GNN_Ricardo> how i select a limitated field?
<inviso_> kaber2: that seems bad, doesn't it? You don't have a root user. At all.
<inviso_> GNN_Ricardo: a what?
<GNN_Ricardo> i got a varchar with 100 chars, i wanna select only the 20~30 field(only print this 10 letters)
<kaber2> hmm
<inviso_> !m GNN_Ricardo string functions
<SQL> GNN_Ricardo: (String Functions) : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/String_functions.html
<kaber2> plesk is working, and if i do show databases, i get horde, psa & mysql
<kaber2> hmm
<kaber2> so if i don't have a root account, how am i supposed to make a user. cause it's not letting me if i use this --skip-grant-tables option
<blackthorne> inviso, thanks
<kaber2> weird
<blackthorne> inviso, unfortunately i always need these kung fu's to set mysqld working. It's the only daemon where i still have these irritating issues.
<inviso_> kaber2: you're not "making a user." You're *updating a p***word. Of course, that explains why the update didn't work :)
<GNN_Ricardo> inviso_ i only found: mysql> SELECT LEFT('foobarbar', 5);
<GNN_Ricardo> -> 'fooba'
<GNN_Ricardo> i need two parameters (string,start,finish)
<kaber2> oh
<GNN_Ricardo> do you know any?
<kaber2> so what your saying is that ther's no root sql account
<inviso_> kaber2: true :)
<kaber2> hmm
<inviso_> GNN_Ricardo: seriously? Look a bit further. I didn't link the doc because I'm trying to be evil
<kaber2> inviso: so i just CREATE USER root ?
<GNN_Ricardo> mysql> SELECT SUBSTRING('Sakila' FROM -4 FOR 2);
<inviso_> kaber2: and it will need granted "uber" permissions. Read the grant docs carefully and you should be able to get it done
<GNN_Ricardo> -> 'ki'
<GNN_Ricardo> this inviso?
<inviso_> !m kaber2 GRANT
<SQL> kaber2: (GRANT and REVOKE Syntax) : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/GRANT.html
<inviso_> GNN_Ricardo: did it do what you want?
<GNN_Ricardo> ya thanks :-)
<inviso_> np, enjoy
<GNN_Ricardo> do you know the same for Microsoft SQL?
<inviso_> no idea
<GNN_Ricardo> ojkz
<kaber2> argh. these syntax's are so complicated without a sample
<kaber2> heh
<Drakas> how to skip each five records, when selecting?
<inviso_> !m Drakas select
<SQL> Drakas: (SELECT Syntax) : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/SELECT.html
<inviso_> Drakas: see LIMIT
<Drakas> sure?
<sjrussel> Drakas - I don't think you can
<kaber2> inviso: it's not letting me create a new user account. telling me can't do it when running --skip-grant-tables
<kaber2> but if it's not --skip-grant-tables i can't login
<Drakas> can you tell me exactly, im on 4.0
<Drakas> like record 1, record 6 , record 11...
<Drakas> doesn'tlimit just select records from x to y?
<sjrussel> right, you can't do what you're trying to do
<sjrussel> and it doesn't make any sense anyway
<sjrussel> if you have a relevant id, you could do where id % 5 = 0 or something
<Ungy_> no it selectxts records starting at x and returns y number of records
<Drakas> well, then x to (x+y(
<Drakas> so i cant skip each five records, impossible?
<sjrussel> do it in code.
<Drakas> ok, just washelpingsome one otu
<kaber2> ooks like plesk was doing something
<daniel`js> Would unsigning fields slow down MySQL at all?
<inviso_> Too bad he left. It would be possible with a row counter and a HAVING
<Ungy_> daniel`js, unsigning slow somethign down?
<Ungy_> daniel`js, I highly doubt it I could see it makign it faster
