[Maria-discuss] Reporting upstream bugs
by Federico Razzoli 10 Jan '13

10 Jan '13

Hi all. I reported a bug in JIRA - I hit it in MariaDB but it was tagged as "upstream". This brings us to the question: is it ok to report upstream bugs in MariaDB's JIRA? There are 2 reasons why I didn't report it to Oracle. Let me explain. 1) MySQL Ab and Sun never had a lot of data about me or the companies where I worked. They only had my email and my full name, plus some optional info, if I remember correctly. But my old account doesn't work anymore, and the new Oracle's sign up page REQUIRES a lot of data - including a physical address and a work phone. I don't want to provide them too much info about me and my company. 2) I tried to sign up with fake data, but after 2 days I didn't receive a confirm email and my account still doesn't work. They are very slow, or something doesn't work fine in their website, or they detected that some data I wrote is fake (but I got no error message). I think that a company which develops open source software should be glad that people reports bugs, and should make the process easier. If the process is hard, I would prefer to report bugs to MariaDB. But, what does MariaDB think about it? Is it ok to report the bugs to you? Federico Razzoli

[Maria-discuss] ASFORMENTIONED keyword suggestion
by Eric Wood 26 Dec '12

26 Dec '12

Routinely updating records with 20 or more columns can be exhausting work. Many have asked for this for many years and I was hoping a MariaDB developer would take the reins in implementing a shorter ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE syntax: INSERT INTO `tableName` (`a`,`b`,`c`) VALUES (1,2,3) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE `a`=VALUES(`a`), `b`=VALUES(`b`), `c`=VALUES(`c`); INSERT INTO `tableName` SET a=1, b=2, c=3 ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE a=1, b=2, c=3; INSERT INTO `tableName` (`a`,`b`,`c`) VALUES (1,2,3) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE ASFORMENTIONED; INSERT INTO `tableName` SET a=1, b=2, c=3 ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE ASFORMENTIONED; Something like this would certainly make SQL enjoyable again. -Eric Wood

[Maria-discuss] partitioning by timestamp field
by Said Ramirez 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

Hello, I am trying to setup a range partitioned table using 5.5.27-MariaDB-log MariaDB Server using a timestamp field. According to the documents, I should be able to use unix_timestamp(ts) as my partitioning function ( http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/partitioning-range.html ) . I find, however, that it is not possible to use unix_timestamp using mariadb because with mariadb the unix_timestamp function returns an floating point value: mariadb> select unix_timestamp('2012-12-01'); +------------------------------+ | unix_timestamp('2012-12-01') | +------------------------------+ | 1354320000.000000 | +------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) However the MySQL version of unix_timestamp returns an int value: myqsl> select unix_timestamp('2012-12-01'); +------------------------------+ | unix_timestamp('2012-12-01') | +------------------------------+ | 1354320000 | +------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.06 sec) How have people worked around this issue? What other ways can I partition by a timestamp in MariaDB ? Thanks, -Said

Hi, Ruslan! First, please use email for questions of this kind.

Are you installing MariaDB 10.0.0 release? If yes, why do you specify "5.2" in the apt-get command line? If you want to install MariaDB 5.2.12 - why do you mention 10.0? May be, you are trying to upgrade or downgrade? Regards, Sergei

[Maria-discuss] KB Question: Drop-in replacement on Debian
by Daniel Bartholomew 17 Nov '12

The following question has been posted to the Knowledgebase: https://kb.askmonty.org/en/drop-in-replacement-on-debian/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Is there a way to make MariaDB install over MySQL on a Debian machine? I have my puppet master, which is running Debian/sid. It has puppet-dashboard, which utilizes MySQL 5.5.28. Much to my dismay, I am unable to install MariaDB over it: - - - - - The following packages have unmet dependencies: libmariadbclient18 : Depends: libmysqlclient18 (= 5.5.28-mariadb1~wheezy) but 5.5.28+dfsg-1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. - - - - - But if I try to uninstall the parts of MySQL, then apt wishes to uninstall everything, up to and including puppet-dashboard: - - - - - The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: dbconfig-common libaio1 libhttpclient-ruby1.8 mysql-server-core-5.5 rake ruby-dbi ruby-deprecated unzip zip Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
