[Maria-discuss] Question about MariaDB Non-blocking Client
by Mike Gibson 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

Greetings, I'm using the MariaDB Non-blocking API to write a C++ client, but I've hit a wall regarding connection checking. I've been referencing the binding from node-mariasql ( https://github.com/mscdex/node-mariasql/blob/master/src/binding.cc) My app parses a config and creates new objects for each query, where each object has a MYSQL struct and MYSQL *pointer. Then, for each I set state to STATE_CONNECT and call doWork(). This works fine, when I can connect right away. The problem I'm experiencing is if I have a connection and kill the server (/etc/init.d/mysql stop) and then start it back (/etc/init.d/mysql start), I can never get clean reconnects. It's usually a mixture of errcode 2058, 2003, 2013. I'm really confused how to gracefully manage connections. Before I was using the official MySQL C++ connector, and it provides a connection->isConnected() method. I'm wondering how I can get something similar with MariaDB's client, as I need the non-blocking interface. Given: MYSQL mysql, *mysqlHandle; Look at the mysql_real_connect_start() or cont() functions. I provide MYSQL struct and on connect I get a copy of the struct stored in *mysqlHandle. It's not clear to me what the purpose of the copy is at this point as I still use the initial struct to call query(). In the case that I can detect a disconnection, how do I properly clean up the connection and attempt reconnect? Do I mysql_close(&mysql) and/or mysql_close(mysqlHandle), shutdown/close the file descriptor, mysql_init() a new handle and go through mysql_real_connect_start/cont()? Does it even make sense for each object to have its own MYSQL struct that I mysql_init(), or would it be better to have layer on top that mysql_init()s a single MYSQL struct, connects, and passes the returned *mysqlHandle to each query? Thanks for providing the async client, any help is appreciated.

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Web Applications do not receive all data in Galera Cluster
by AskMonty KB 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Replication" by confidus: -------------------------------- Hello, I have a real strange issue. I have a web application that appears to not show the correct records. I am using a load balancer for a web farm for a billing system. I am also using a load balancer for the Galera cluster. When a trouble ticket is generated, sometimes that ticket is not available on all the web servers, but when I look at each individual MariaDB server, I see the record. Data commits are synced and all looks good from the cluster side of things. I can perform a mysqldump to another database and point the billing system to that database and all is good. If I reboot each MariaDB server one by one, things start working again. It almost seems like there is some caching where the database cluster at times only shows records that were generated by that web server. I did check that all the web servers in the farm are using the same load balanced ip address for the MariaDB farm and they are. I have replicated this on two different web applications (A CRM & Billing system) both on different web farms. -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/web-applications-do-not-receive-all-data-in-galer…

Is it possible to set up replication in such a manner as to permit writing records to either a master or a slave replica? We want to set up a fail safe replica that can easily take over when our connection to the main replica fails, which, unfortunately, is fairly often. I read a document, some time ago which mentioned several types of replication, i.e.: by record, by table ... and the pitfalls, like IDs not necessarily matching... which confused me more than anything else... Can someone point me to some good documentation to enable me to pick the correct type of replication that I need to accomplish my task?? Thanks Richard -- LinuxCabal Asociación Civil Ing.

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Multi-threading and Statement.cancel()
by AskMonty KB 19 Jul '13

19 Jul '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB Java Client" by rstepanski: -------------------------------- Attempting to execute queries on multiple threads (10 to 20) with the ability to cancel each Thread's unique Statement mid execution from a separate thread. However, when sharing a single Connection among all threads for their Statement creation, a cancel() on one Statement will cause other thread's executeQuery() to throw a "Query execution was interrupted". Switching to per thread Connections and a thread pool, the cancel() will sometimes fail with "Unknown thread id: xx". I'm assuming this occurs when a thread previously used to work with another connection attempts to cancel() another. This had worked previously with MySql jdbc (and still does with MySql jdbc + MariaDb server). The queries themselves are single table, limited/offset, selects. Where clauses would generally be related: query 1: like 'a%' query 2: like 'ab%' query 3: like 'abc%' With each previous query being cancelled when a more specific query was available. Any comments/suggestions appreciated. Thanks! -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/multi-threading-and-statementcancel/

[Maria-discuss] deferrable constraints syntax?

16 Jul '13

Hi all, I'm trying to create a deferrable foreign key constraint, according to the knowledge base article at https://kb.askmonty.org/en/constraint_type-foreign-key-constraint/. The syntax of "deferrable initially deferred" doesn't seem to be recognised. Without it, the tables are created just fine. I'm using MariaDB 5.5.31. Example: create table one ( id int primary key ); create table two ( id int primary key, one_ref int, constraint fk foreign key(one_ref) references one(id) deferrable initially deferred ); => error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'deferrable initially deferred )' at line 4 Any idea what's wrong?

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Getting Started" by giordano: -------------------------------- I would like to know which datatypes are supported by MariaDB. I'm asking since I'm little confused. For example, the knowledge base contains a chapter temporal datatypes: https://kb.askmonty.org/en/temporal-data-types/ where the the datatype timestamp is defined: "it defines a set of correctly formed values that represent any valid Gregorian calendar date between '0001-01-01' and '9999-12-31'" If I look at the MySQL-site http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/de/datetime.html The definition for timestamp is: "The TIMESTAMP data type is used for values that contain both date and time parts. TIMESTAMP has a range of '1970-01-01 00:00:01' UTC to '2038-01-19 03:14:07' UTC." These are different definitions.I know that the datatype defintions in the knowledge base contains the syntax of SQL-99. What makes me insecure is which definition has priority. Also I do not know if all datatypes in Oracle-MySQL are supported by MariaDB. For example, tinyint, bigint. (Sincerly, I know that MariaDB understand these datatypes, but I wonder if they have the same definition as given by the Oracle-MySQL-site.)

[Maria-discuss] 5.5 versus 10.0/5.6 performance issues
by Puff, Werner 03 Jul '13

03 Jul '13

Because of performance issues with our DBMS we recently decided to migrate our software to MySQL or one of its forks. We would prefer MariaDB. We created a performance test suite so that we are sure to make the right decision. Beside other values our test measured the average workflow processing time including multiple database transactions. The unexpected outcome was, that we had a big difference in the processing times between 5.5 and 5.6 based databases. average-time [ms] (lower = better) MySQL 5.6 233 Percona 5.6pre 208 MariaDB 10alpha 194 MariaDB 5.5 1248 MySQL 5.5 993 (Firebird 2.5 9694) We are bound to very special hardware, the biggest bottleneck there is USB-stick based storage (cannot be changed for now). Our interpretation of the results and the research we were doing so far is, that the changes within InnoDB/XtraDB storage engine in connection with our "very special" storage solution causes this differences. Can anybody confirm that the changes had a high impact on storage mediums with slow access rates? Or does anybody have an idea if it possible to optimize MariaDB 5.5 (we would like to go with MariaDB) to get the same performance with MySQL 5.6?

I know that there is https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/user-resources.html, I also know that cgroups can be used at operating system level. What are your experiences in limiting resources in mysql? I've used percona statistics and had information provided by it. Are there any better solutions? Best regards, Rafal Radecki.

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Local state seqno out of sync with group
by AskMonty KB 02 Jul '13

02 Jul '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Galera" by uxbod: -------------------------------- We have MariaDB and Galera working in our lab on a three node cluster. When setting them up the wsrep options for each node were as follows: {{{ node1: wsrep_cluster_address="gcomm://" node2: wsrep_cluster_address="gcomm://172.30.1.3" node3: wsrep_cluster_address="gcomm://172.30.1.1" }}} Once all the nodes were in sync I shutdown node1 and set its wsrep_cluster_address to be 172.30.1.2. This I thought would allow the three nodes to keep in sync. What happened though was when I started MariaDB backup I received the error: {{{ 130702 8:35:51 [ERROR] WSREP: Local state seqno (16053) is greater than group seqno (15898): states diverged. Aborting to avoid potential data loss. Remove '/var/lib/mysql//grastate.dat' file and restart if you wish to continue. (FATAL) at galera/src/replicator_str.cpp:state_transfer_required():34 }}} Why has this happened ? Is it safe to proceed with the recommendation of removing grastate.dat ? -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/local-state-seqno-out-of-sync-with-group/

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Changing location of database
by AskMonty KB 28 Jun '13

28 Jun '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB community" by mdavies5: -------------------------------- Using 5.5.31 on Linux Mint. By default datadir is /var/lib/mysql. Like most users I do not want my data on my boot drive so I moved it to a different physical drive which is always mounted. I then stopped server, reset the basedir in my.cnf and restarted. No problem. After a reboot the log shows multiple errors "Table xxx doesn't exist" although it does. In Mysql workbench the tables are listed in the schema tree but any attempt to access causes workbench to abort. I also tried deleting all data, recreate the schema folders and then the scripts to create the tables and routines and data. Again ok until a reboot. The only thing I haven't tried is dropping the schemas and recreating them in workbench. Relevant data: The new data drive is NTFS. The error messages include: [ERROR] Cannot find or open table pword/pword from the internal data dictionary of InnoDB though the .frm file for the table exists. Maybe you have deleted and recreated InnoDB data files but have forgotten to delete the corresponding .frm files of InnoDB tables, or you have moved .frm files to another database? or, the table contains indexes that this version of the engine doesn't support. Would appreciate any suggestions. -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/changing-location-of-database/

[Maria-discuss] New Question: LINQ in C#
by AskMonty KB 27 Jun '13

27 Jun '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Using MariaDB" by JDoggieIII: -------------------------------- Hi, I am attempting to replace the database in an application with MariaDB. This application is written in C# and previously accessed the database (mostly inserts) with LINQ. When I attempt to insert (other transactions have the same type of issue) I get the error message: "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '[t0].[Id], [t0].[BirthYear], [t0].[FirstName], [t0].[Gender], [t0].[LastName], [' at line 1" The table in MariaDB is setup the same as it was in MS SQL. Any thoughts on this subject would be most appreciated. I could go back and remove all use of LINQ and write SQL by hand (which is how I would have implemented it in the first place due to LINQ being the bane of my existence), but if I can get it to work as is it will save a great deal of time, and therefore money.

[Maria-discuss] Silencing "Unsafe statement written to the binary log" log warnings
by Vincent Pelletier 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

Hi. We get 500k such lines per day: 130517 0:00:02 [Warning] Unsafe statement written to the binary log using statement format since BINLOG_FORMAT = STATEMENT. The statement is unsafe because it uses a LIMIT clause. This is unsafe because the set of rows included cannot be predicted. Statement: UPDATE [...] Is there a way to silence them ? Intuitively, I would expect a companion option to innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog, but couldn't find one in the documentation. The queries triggering those warnings are harmless in our case because the update is rolled back at application level on restart (which necessarily happens in case of disaster recovery involving restoring incremental backups). If you want more details to understand what we are doing - shouldn't be needed for this discussion: The table involved is used as a shared task queue. The update happens when a process wants to process a bunch of tasks, up to a limit. Once a task is over, it is deleted by its primary key. So any task assigned to a worker's identifier upon worker startup can be safely assumed to have to be processed, and is released by that worker (effectively rolling back UPDATE's action). This only represents 2MB gzipped, so we can live with it if we must, but it causes undesired noise which may hide real issues.

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Aria Max Table Size for internal on-disk temporary tables
by AskMonty KB 17 Jun '13

17 Jun '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Aria" by trsystran: -------------------------------- Using MariaDB 5.5.31 (deb file for ubuntu 12.04 amd_64: 5.5.31+maria-1~precise). When a query requires an internal temporary tables, and this tables becomes too large to be kept in ram, the table is moved to disk using Aria engine. If the on-disk .MAD file reaches 4GB, an error occurs: {{{ [ERROR] mysqld: The table '/tmp/#sql_74e_0' is full }}} How can we change this limit? In https://kb.askmonty.org/en/aria-max-table-size/ it is recommended to change MAX_ROW, but it only applies for explicitly created temporary tables. Looking at the code I found this in maria_create(): {{{ data_file_length= ((((ulonglong) 1 << ((BLOCK_RECORD_POINTER_SIZE-1) * 8))/2 -1) * maria_block_size); }}} Which amounts to 4GB with default values (8192 for maria_block_size). I created a new DB with aria-block-size = 32768 (the max value), and it still failed at 4GB. Even if it worked, it would mean the max size is only 16GB, and setting a large block size may have performance penalties. So what is the proper fix to increase this limit? With MyISAM as on-disk temporary tables engine the limit seems to be much higher (at least 14GB from experiments). -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/aria-max-table-size-for-internal-on-disk-temporar…

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Executing a command file from within a command file?
by AskMonty KB 17 Jun '13

17 Jun '13

Hello, A new question has been asked in "mysql client" by JohnD: -------------------------------- I have a bunch of things I'd like to execute one after the other. A simple example would be: - drop table x; - drop table y; - create table y by executing create_table_y.sql - create table x by executing create_table_x.sql With the mysql command line, I can execute "drop table x;", and I can execute a SQL script with -e "source create_table_x.sql". But what is the good way to bundle all these together into a script which will do all the actions? The only way I can think of is to create a batch file which will call out to mysql for each action. And pass the password as an argument to the batch file. Like this: mysql -u root -p mypassword -e "drop table x;" mysql -u root -p mypassword -e "drop table y;" mysql -u root -p mypassword -e "source create_table_y.sql" mysql -u root -p mypassword -e "source create_table_x.sql" But this seems fairly clunky. Is there a better, or even best practice?

[Maria-discuss] openbsd switched libmysqlclient back to older mysql one

Hi! I noticed this: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/databases/mariadb/Makefile?rev=… Revert back to using MySQL 5.1 for the time being. MariaDB 5.5 introduces a new libmysqlclient non-blocking API which utilizes co-routines. The X86 specific GCC ASM co-routine support hid the fact that there was an issue. The only fallback code so far is POSIX user contexts which OpenBSD does not support.

Re: [Maria-discuss] Clear-text plugin

"no support for dlopen()" . How does this apply to Windows clients? We always build first on Windows and once we have no errors of any kind we build on Linux if the application exists for that platform (what MONyog does and SQLyog does not) and fix what issues may occur there. This issue has occurred with SQLyog (and as such for a Windows client). I am not coder/developer myself, but on Windows I think we have no other option than statically linking? We could of could compile the API as a .dll, but we don't (because we had a lot of problems with it earlier). -- Peter On Thu, Jun 6, 2013 at 3:25 PM, Sergei Golubchik <serg(a)mariadb.org> wrote: > Hi, Peter! > > On Jun 04, Peter Laursen wrote: > > We have the same problem.
