<0> +------------------------------+
<0> | 20059071483559 |
<0> +------------------------------+
<0> 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
<1> use
<1> pastebin
<0> something weird happens with the math
<1> hashmysql.org/paste/
<2> pastebin plv
<0> nobody was talking, and you guys have used almost as many lines asking me to use pastebin, just saying
<2> this isn't a diplomatic negotiation
<2> if you don't want to use the pastebin, then just don't paste the fluff
<3> misty: what does utc_timestamp() return by itself?
<0> jtacy: good point :( it's the wrong thing, I think I have gotten cofnused by which time function to use
<0> ahh I want unix_timestamp



<0> thanks for your help
<3> np
<4> i am creating a chat, and i needed to know the proper data type to index the time a message was inserted
<1> timestamp?
<1> datetime?
<4> thx

<5> hi
<5> could someone help me please with sql in general? i need to insert a new row if there is none with that key already. what's wrong with IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT key FROM table WHERE key = '[the key i want to insert]') THEN INSERT INTO table(key) VALUES('[the key i want to insert]') ?
<6> what does the error message say?
<5> infi: 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 'IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM nagytabla WHERE szam = '17') THEN INSERT INTO nagyt' at line 1
<6> heh
<5> is that a good heh or a bad one? :)
<5> oh yeah, i used a different table and key name
<7> Bandesz-: That's probably not a valid use of IF.
<5> another option is just trying to insert and if there already is a row with that key, it won't let me anyway :)
<5> but i thought checking it somehow would be nicer
<7> Bandesz-: The more direct approach is to create a unique constraint on [key] and let the database insert or not depending upon whether the key is or is not already there.
<5> do i need to make it unique? the key is supposed be the unique, isn't it? that's what makes it a key :)
<5> i've already set it as the key
<7> Bandesz-: A PK is already guaranteed to be unique.
<7> Primary Key.
<5> yeah, it's primary
<7> That's all you need.
<5> thanks. does the same work with adding columns? if there's already a column with that name it won't let me add another one, right? columns are unique,too
<7> Bandesz-: You probably shouldn't be doing that dynamically.
<5> i'm not
<5> thanks for the help
<7> Bandesz-: Make your schema changes as needed whenever you upgrade the application.
<7> You shouldn't ever need to guess whether the field exists or not.
<7> V3.x (before upgrade) does or does not have fieldx.
<7> You already know that.
<5> yeah, but it's part of a job i'm doing and i thought it wouldn't look so good getting tons of error messages from the server
<6> if you know the schema, and your SQL statements are valid, it should be feeding you data, not errors :)
<5> but trying to add another row with the same key won't give me the 'Duplicate entry for key blabla' error message?
<6> use INSERT IGNORE
<5> oh, good idea!
<5> thanks
<8> Yay!
<9> hello
<9> I got table (customerID, lastName, companyName). I need to order by "name", so it customer is not company (company is empty) order should be by lastName, otherwise on companyName.
<9> it must be done with subselect?
<9> because order by can't switch between columns, correct?
<10> yeah .. you could maybe to some trickery with case inside your select list
<10> otherwise it might be sufficient to order by multiple columns
<10> sounds like that would actually be sufficient
<9> no..
<10> but you could create a column in your select list .. lets call it "ordering" where you ***ign the column value to sort against for this row
<9> because when customer is a company, lastName can be empty, so ORDER BY lastName, companyName will return all companies first
<10> using a case
<10> would nit be able to use an index of course
<10> unless you denormalize
<9> yeah, but is it optimized order by then?
<9> when i use case?
<10> it will need to do a temp table in memory i would ***ume
<9> but it's not a problem now, i got 5.000 rows.
<9> so wirtual column + order by it.
<9> thanks !
<11> can i call a sp from within a trigger?
<11> or even better: can I do an insert with a trigger? according to the trigger-"book" i can't - is that still the case?
<11> oh according to the reference manual it is possible... great :)



<12> hi ppl
<12> In which situations mysql4 decides not to cache statements?
<13> i have mysql-noinstall-5.0.18-win32.zip and after extracting it and running mysqld, if i run \bin\mysql it says: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using p***word: NO)
<14> you are supposed to run the mysql client in the commandline
<13> yes, i am doing just that
<14> so try mysql -u root
<14> or mysql --help
<13> oh thanks
<13> so the default user it was trying to connect with didn't exist ?
<13> or maybe i'm missing windows components ?
<14> the former
<14> I think
<15> i want to let my friend use a databse, but i dont know what to set the SQL host to
<14> the default user is root with no p***word
<13> then why it was trying to use ODBC ? :)
<14> you need to read the docs on granting access
<14> I have no idea
<15> anyone know
<14> I havent ever used the commandline client on win
<14> when I used mysql on win last time, I dl'd the installer
<14> and it gave me pretty shortcuts in the program menu
<14> there's a gui management app
<13> oh then i'm going to get that
<13> can you tell me what are the most used database solutions now ? i only know of sql and foxpro
<15> can anyone please help me, i know its probably really simple
<6> hold on while I survey everyone on earth...
<16> Jezek: : what host? where ? more info please
<15> i have a site with mysql database, and i want to allow my friend on another site to access it
<16> Jezek: From the first look at it, you must allow your friend to acces dbase server on firewall (strict rule), than create specific user on mysql itself for that person.
<17> hello every one
<18> hello
<17> can some one answer my query ?
<18> dont ask to ask a question. just ask a question
<17> i want to replicate some tables from database instead of replicate whole db :)
<17> dude blobaugh i did last time but no answer :)
<18> heh
<17> so do you have any idea ?
<15> ok
<16> I have sort of weird problem with phpmyadmin, it's SQL query window i rejecting (with an error) my stored proc queries (call proc1();)
<17> any one
<16> I repeatedely receive "#2013 - Lost connection to MySQL server during query " error
<16> the proc is really simple (reate procedure p1() select "bang";) which i execute "call p1();"
<18> L|NUX: i know that webmin can do it for you, im looking on google too
<19> hello, is there a way to let mysql handle id collisions with these ids given in several insert statements?
<6> olliwolli, perhaps you are looking for INSERT IGNORE
<19> ill have a look, thx
<6> alternately, there is INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE ...
<18> L|NUX: http://lists.evolt.org/archive/Week-of-Mon-20030929/149244.html << take a look at that
<17> ok
<17> blobaugh : but if some one do not want to use webmin
<18> look at that link
<17> and his example is for same machine :)
<17> and i am talking about different machines ;)
<18> google it. theres a ton of info on how to transfer from the local to remote machines
<17> i know
<17> thx for the info
<20> hello
<20> what data type should i use to hold currency? i'm now using a double. is that correnct?
<20> or should i use decimal?
<18> i used a decimal(<somenumber>,2)
<20> hmmm
<20> blobaugh: but i need at least 5 decimal positions
<18> i have used floats and doubles in the past as well but this way puts it in the correct position for money
<18> decimal(predot,postdot)
<20> blobaugh: ok, thanks... 1 more thing please....
<20> and for small decimal numbers like 20.25 ?
<20> and for quantities with 3 decimals?
<20> you always use decimal?
<21> sorry, dialup...
<21> when i have used decimal ive primarily used it for money purposes. the only issue is that it rounds up. for a large decimal number i may use a float. they are more precise
<20> blobaugh_: all i nned is data type for: currency with 5 decimals, percent numbers, and quantities with 3 decimals
<20> whay would you use ?
<20> decimal(14,5) for currency
<20> float for percent numbers?
