[Maria-discuss] MySQL Workbench 6 & MariaDB
by Colin Charles 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi! I now notice that MySQL Workbench connecting to MariaDB 10.0.5 will tell you that the server version 10 is not supported. Is this a bug worthy of reporting to Oracle upstream at bugs.mysql.com or do we just list it as an incompatibility here: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-vs-mysql-compatibility/ Would be interested in hearing your thoughts on this matter cheers, -colin -- Colin Charles, Chief Evangelist MariaDB | t: +6-012-204-3201 | Skype: colincharles

[Maria-discuss] Is OQGRAPH back in 10.0.5?
by Colin Charles 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

Hi! I noticed that ha_oqgraph.so exists in /usr/lib64/mysql/plugin on the 10.0.5 packages. So I just installed it, and it shows up in SHOW ENGINES output. I tried creating a table, and it worked (confirmed via output in SHOW TABLE STATUS) So, is this something we are planning on shipping in 10.0? This is version 2 of the plugin and it is now marked to be Beta quality (from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PLUGINS) If we are shipping this in 10.0, we really need to improve the documentation around it in the Knowledgebase cheers, -colin -- Colin Charles, Chief Evangelist MariaDB | t: +6-012-204-3201 | Skype: colincharles

[Maria-discuss] New Question: mariadb RAM usage
by AskMonty KB 08 Nov '13

08 Nov '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB Performance & Advanced Configurations" by ferreirah: -------------------------------- When you bundle your app with mysql or mariadb, you don't want mysql or mariadb to devour all your RAM, especially if the database is installed on a desktop operating system. I haven't recently tried out mysql or mariadb, but I was wondering about the minimum memory required on windows. I sent a question to mysql and they told me it only requires 1 MB RAM minimum. At that stage they still supported windows 2000 and windows xp, which isn't supported any more. I remember installing mysql on windows xp and you could configure it through a wizard. You could either set it to dedicated server, shared server or developer install. I suppose developer install will use the least amount of RAM. How much RAM would mariadb use with a developer install if you had to install it on windows vista/7/8/8.1? Does it matter which engine you are using? XtraDB?

[Maria-discuss] New Question: licencing of mariadb and mysql dot net connector
by AskMonty KB 08 Nov '13

08 Nov '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Client libraries" by ferreirah: -------------------------------- Hi I agree with one of the previous posts that licencing is such a tricky aspect of IT. I read in previous posts that when using mariadb with the odbc framework that you can distribute both the odbc connector and mariadb with your closed source commercial application. It said in the post if you use a framework to access the database then both the connector and mariadb are free for commercial use. What about dot net? Dot net is a framework through which you can access mariadb? Does this mean that both the dot net connector as well as mariadb are free for closed source commercial use? I suppose the downside is that you can't use any mariadb specific features if you are using the mysql connector? Thanks H.F. -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/licencing-of-mariadb-and-mysql-dot-net-connector/

[Maria-discuss] New Question: mysql_secure_installation does not work with socket locations other than /tmp/mysql.sock
by AskMonty KB 03 Nov '13

03 Nov '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB community" by openiduser32: -------------------------------- The only information I could find on this is a MySQL bug report dating back to 2009: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=46842 I've tried passing the basedir to mysql_secure_installation as well as --defaults-file and --socket but it refuses to look anywhere but /tmp/mysql.sock. I'm running MariaDB in userland and except for this script everything is working fine. My socket file is in ~/mariadb/mysql/run/mysql.sock. Mediawiki has no problem connecting to it using localhost when it's set as the default socket in php.ini. I have network connections disabled in my.cnf to only allowed Unix socket connections. I've tried to fix it myself but I've exhausted my command line scripting knowledge. Can someone please help me get this script working again? -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/mysql_secure_installation-does-not-work-with-socke…
