[Maria-discuss] New Question: ResultSetMetaData getColumnClassName accuracy for JDBC
by AskMonty KB 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Client Libraries" by tommy_pham_g. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/resultsetmetadata-getcolumnclassname-accuracy-for-… as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list. -------------------------------- Hi folks, I'm having problems getting the getColumnClassName to return the correct information. I have a sample table: CREATE TABLE `datatypes` ( `mariadb_binary` binary(8) NULL, `mariadb_blob` blob NULL, `mariadb_boolean` tinyint(1) NULL, `mariadb_varbinary` varbinary(16) NULL, `mariadb_varchar` varchar(5) CHARACTER SET utf8 NULL, UNIQUE KEY `mariadb_serial` (`mariadb_serial`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci; The ResultSetMetaData is not returning accurate GetColumnClassName information for some of the above columns: [INFO ] 2015-03-02 09:26:52.905 [main] c.d.d.AppDbTest.main - getColumnName mariadb_binary | getColumnLabel mariadb_binary. getColumnClassName [B. getColumnDisplaySize 8. getColumnType -2. getColumnTypeName BINARY. [INFO ] 2015-03-02 09:26:52.905 [main] c.d.d.AppDbTest.main - getColumnName mariadb_blob | getColumnLabel mariadb_blob. getColumnClassName [B. getColumnDisplaySize 65535. getColumnType -4. getColumnTypeName BLOB. [INFO ] 2015-03-02 09:26:52.905 [main] c.d.d.AppDbTest.main - getColumnName mariadb_boolean | getColumnLabel mariadb_boolean. getColumnClassName java.lang.Boolean. getColumnDisplaySize 1. getColumnType -7. getColumnTypeName TINYINT. getPrecision 1. [INFO ] 2015-03-02 09:26:52.998 [main] c.d.d.AppDbTest.main - getColumnName mariadb_varbinary | getColumnLabel mariadb_varbinary. getColumnClassName [B. getColumnDisplaySize 16. getColumnType -3. getColumnTypeName VARBINARY. getPrecision 16. [INFO ] 2015-03-02 09:26:53.014 [main] c.d.d.AppDbTest.main - getColumnName mariadb_varchar | getColumnLabel mariadb_varchar. getColumnClassName java.lang.String. getColumnDisplaySize 5. getColumnType 12. getColumnTypeName VARCHAR. getPrecision 5. Is the above by design? Is it bug within JDBC spec? I'm using MariaDB JDBC version 1.1.8. Thanks, Tommy -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/resultsetmetadata-getcolumnclassname-accuracy-for-…

[Maria-discuss] Serious problem with latest (10.0.16) Windows installer - destroys services.
by Peter Laursen 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

I have MariaDB 5.5, 10.0 and 10.1 installed (as Windows services named 'maria55'. 'maria10' and 'maria10_1' ) and always update them to latest soon after an update is available. Yesterday morning I installed 10.0.16 on top of 10.0.15 using the .msi installer. When I tried to connect to it a few hours later it was not possible. I thought the service might not be running. It wasn't. Actually it did not exist anymore at all! "net start maria10" returned "service does not exist" (and indeed it did not appear in Windows "services management" interface). I copied the /datadir, uninstalle , did a fresh install of 10.0.16d (choosing the option not to upgrade any existing server) and copied the old /datadir back. Now Maria 10.0(.16) works again. But now I see that the 'maria55' service is also gone from the system. Files are intact. I can repeat the exercise I did with 10.0 of course or install service again from commandline. Not a big problem, but very annoying and waste of time. MariaDB 10.1 installaton is not affected. 5 diiferent Oracle/MySQL servers (from 5.0 to 5.7) also are not. I need all those instances for application testing. Questions: * Has somebody else experienced this? * Has somebody replaced @wlad as maintainer of Windows installers? @wlad was the only person who ever was able to write reasonable MySQL/MariaDB installers. So I would regret that. It is perfectly legal on Windows to have multiple MariaDB servers simultaneously running as Windows services. They won't conflict as long as service name, port, basedir and datadir are all different. What happens with one should not affect another. I the installer does not respect this, it is a bug. -- Peter -- Webyog

[Maria-discuss] Giving up on dynamic columns
by Tom Worster 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

I discovered this showstopper on Friday while working with real data in development of a new app. I managed to narrow it down today and filed the bug report. https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/MDEV-7650 Looks like Maria saves an illegally formatted dyncol string if a dynamic column is longer than 64kB and is not alphabetically last by name among the dynamic column in the blob. Tbh, even is this were fixed tomorrow so I could proceed with my work, I'm not sure I would use dyncols. My confidence in the feature has been shaken. It's a pity because the Active Record ORM extension I wrote was working. Tom

[Maria-discuss] myisam_use_mmap unstable in MariaDB 10.0.x
by Reindl Harald 01 Mar '15

01 Mar '15

historical: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/226361 after it turned out to be stable in 2013/2014 upgrade to MariaDB 10.0.17 yesterday and the logs started with "table corrupt", "table not closed properly" and so on for tables which where not only read this time not with 'mysqld got signal 11' but "only" corrupted MyISAM files and after disable 'myisam_use_mmap' all is clean and stable over hours BTW a 'repair table' don't delete the TMM file leading in a 'optimize table' later failing until you delete the file manually from disk __________________________________________________________________ this configuration is unchanged for years and so my only conclusion is that Oracle managed to kill the feature again, this is also confirmed for Percona Server 5.6 where even queries fail confirmed from another sysadmin which found out that playing with my settings leaded to problems while here MariaDB 5.5.x was in use and hence no troubles - given that 'myisam_use_mmap' is borked at MariaDB 10.x and Percona 5.6 it's likely a backport from MySQL 5.6 delay-key-write = ALL concurrent_insert = 2 open-files-limit = 750000 myisam-recover-options = "FORCE" myisam_use_mmap = 0 wait_timeout = 300 interactive_timeout = 300 max_allowed_packet = 200M max_connections = 500 max_tmp_tables = 150 max_connect_errors = 250 max_delayed_threads = 32 flush_time = 0 query_cache_limit = 256K query_cache_min_res_unit = 1K query_cache_size = 1280M query_cache_type = 1 table_cache = 10000 table_definition_cache = 10000 thread_cache_size = 400 tmp_table_size = 256M max_heap_table_size = 256M key_buffer_size = 256M sort_buffer_size = 256K myisam_sort_buffer_size = 15M join_buffer_size = 1M preload_buffer_size = 128K read_buffer_size = 128K read_rnd_buffer_size = 128K
