[Maria-developers] Kubuntu 12.04.1 and MariaDB
by Giacomo Picchiarelli 11 Jan '13

11 Jan '13

Hi! I'm having troubles installing mariadb 10.0 in Kubuntu 12.04.1. When I try to install it, dependencies are getting enraged and apt (through synaptic or muon) suggests to remove kde-plasma-desktop. This happens when I try to install mariadb-server-core 10.0. Of course if I remove kde-plasma-desktop I can't use my kde desktop, because it depends on mysql packages. I was trying to install it for educational purpose, and try to build and make some tests. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you -- Giacomo Picchiarelli <gpicchiarelli(a)gmail.com>

[Maria-developers] External replication proceeding
by md＠rpzdesign.com 09 Jan '13

09 Jan '13

Monty: I received your email and am re-posting to the maria developers list. It is truly amazing that maria developers are HAPPY with replication as it stands right now. binary logs, Single SLAVE reading from individual masters, bla-bla-bla..... All the current replication code is like walking on the edge of a cliff, anything goes wrong and the replication process STOPS with an error. And a HUMAN BEING must wake up from their blissful sleep to get the process started again and figure out what happened. And I just LOVE having to: LOCK TABLES; RESET MASTER SET SLAVE OFF; MYSQLDUMP; COPY FILES TO SLAVE; SET MASTER TO 'sql_log_bin=45678945"; SET SLAVE ON; SECONDS BEHIND MASTER... WRITE A THESIS FOR MY PHD IN ROCKET SCIENCE Oh my GOD!!!!!! What an absolute nightmare of a design, it works, just not well. I have not made an in depth study of galera, but I refuse to make replication another research project, replication should be EASY, auto-healing, self analyzing, N-MASTER and with simple source code. I will open source the files that I use to change the MYSQLD daemon. The best way to debug MariaDB on Linux is to run the program in Netbeans 7.1.2. You can even give it command line parameters to work against a currently installed system with the data/conf files in place. Your trace idea is very nice, but there is nothing like STEPPING THROUGH the code in NetBeans/GDB in a nice IDE instead of cryptic command line GDB.

[Maria-developers] High Priest of Humility

Arjen: I would not go so far as to call it "raving" or boasting about anything. It was a private email message to you only. Not broadcast publicly. For a MariaDB captain, that is pretty bold offering a negative opinion to a potential contributor. Negative comments like that are not the best support for any level of enthusiasm for openness, collaboration, and sharing. Hint: Stop giving hints. marco On 1/7/2013 5:05 PM, Arjen Lentz wrote: > Hi Marco > >> Nice to see your response. >> >> I will be providing the code that I use to modify the MariaDB core >> daemon soon. > I presume you'll put it up in a branch on Launchpad? > > >> You will be amazed how little I am changing the core code. > Hint: modesty/humility are a good traits for an OSS developer.

[Maria-developers] Missing man/mysql_plugin.1 in tar ball
by Honza Horak 07 Jan '13

07 Jan '13

Hi all, I've noticed that man page for mysql_plugin utility (man/mysql_plugin.1) is not present in mariadb-5.5.28a.tar.gz while it is present in mysql-5.5.28.tar.gz. However, I failed to find the reason why in case there is one. Or is that a mistake? Does anybody know? Regards, Honza

I did not mean to use it instead of the #ifdef, I mean to use it instead of a /* old functions (deprecated) */ comment. Because a compiler cannot read the comment. 3.

If mariadb_dyncol_list_named() returns an array of LEX_STRING's, than mariadb_dyncol_list should return an array of integers, not a dynamic array.

[Maria-developers] Odd Error in Logs
by Gordan Bobic 21 Dec '12

21 Dec '12

Hi, I recently switched from MySQL 5.6.5 to MariaDB 10.0, and I've been seeing errors like the following in the logs since: 121221 13:22:34 [ERROR] Master 'master1': Found index PRIMARY whose column info does not match that of MySQL. 121221 13:22:34 [ERROR] Master 'master1': Build InnoDB index translation table for Table ./data/aggregate#P#p201006 failed I didn't dump/restore the data during the upgrade. What exactly is the cause of this? Is it dangerous? Everything seems to work fine, I just want to make sure that something subtle isn't going to cause silent data corruption. TIA. Gordan
