[Maria-discuss] Spider 3.0 is merged against MariaDB 10.0
by Colin Charles 12 May '13

12 May '13

Hi! Kentoku Shiba has merged the latest Spider 3.0 against MariaDB 10.0: https://code.launchpad.net/~kentokushiba/maria/10.0-spider-3.0 I would like to propose this for merging There is also a complete test suite now, and Kentoku has written some instructions: == testing Spider I pushed Spider into "lp:~kentokushiba/maria/10.0-spider-3.0". It's tested on "CentOS 6.3 x86_64" and "Windows 7 professional 32bit". Test command is the followings. > cd mysql-test > ./mysql-test-run.pl --mysqld=--innodb --suite=spider The following test command can't done yet, because it needs some change for MariaDB. > ./mysql-test-run.pl --mysqld=--innodb --suite=spider/bg Spider's background/parallel search feature works allocate and free result-set from data node on different thread, but MariaDB 10.0's "per thread memory usage" feature can't understand it. > ./mysql-test-run.pl --mysqld=--innodb --suite=spider/handler Table partition feature need to support "handler" command. I have a patch file. In addition, it is awesome to note that Kentoku & his team behind the development of Groonga storage engine have also won an award (Japan OSS Incentive Award): http://ossforum.jp/en/node/1277 Thanks cheers, -colin -- Colin Charles, http://bytebot.net/blog/ | twitter: @bytebot | skype: colincharles MariaDB: Community developed.

[Maria-discuss] KB Question: lgpl .net connector
by Daniel Bartholomew 09 May '13

09 May '13

The following question has been posted to the Knowledgebase: https://kb.askmonty.org/en/lgpl-net-connector/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - lgpl .net connector Will there be an lgpl .net connector released in the future? I understand that most mysql downloads are for windows machines which would indicate a large market for mariadb. An lgpl .net connector would be a big incentive for a lot of people to move on MariaDB i think. My company currently use SQL Server but are looking at other options. An lgpl licence for mariadb would be the difference between us moving to mariadb rather than mysql or the liberally licenced postgresql. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thanks. -- Daniel Bartholomew Google+ - http://gplus.to/dbart Twitter - http://twitter.com/daniel_bart MariaDB: An Enhanced Drop-in Replacement for MySQL Website - http://mariadb.org Twitter - http://twitter.com/mariadb Google+ - http://google.com/+mariadb Facebook - http://fb.com/MariaDB.dbms Knowledgebase - http://kb.askmonty.org

[Maria-discuss] aria checksum
by Scott Feldstein 30 Apr '13

30 Apr '13

Hi, I have data which I want to store in the aria storage engine, the data is inserted then never updated or deleted, although the table could be truncated. This data could potentially be replicated in production. The data is inserted in parallel and once the table reaches a certain capacity data is no long inserted into it. My question is, would I want to turn on the checksum for this data? And, if yes, should I use table checksum or page checksum? What are the advantages / disadvantages of this? I tried searching docs and couldn't find a breakdown so if someone could answer this or point me to a doc or discussion that would be great. Right now I am using DYNAMIC row format since I want the smallest footprint possible. thanks, Scott

[Maria-discuss] New server, switch to MariaDB, different versions
by Tanstaafl 27 Apr '13

27 Apr '13

Hello, My current (8 yr old bare metal) server is currently running mysql 5.1.62, with just a couple of very small databases: postfixadmin and roundcube I am setting up a shiny new virtualized (ESXi host) server, that now has MariaDB 5.5.30 on it... My question is, can I do a dump from my old server running mysql 5.1.62, then restore that dump to my new server running MariaDB 5.5.30, run mysql_upgrade, and have any kind of reasonable expectation of it working? I'd rather not update the current (production) server to MariaDB (I'm gunshy when it comes to major changes on a production system). If not, then my other option would be to downgrade MariaDB on the new server to 5.1.66... but again, I'd rather not do that if it isn't necessary. Thanks - I'm really looking forward to saying goodbye to mysql (for political reasons, the software itself has served me well these 8 years, it's just too bad that they got bought by Oracle)... Charles

[Maria-discuss] MariaDB 10.0.2-alpha now available
by Daniel Bartholomew 24 Apr '13

24 Apr '13

The MariaDB project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of MariaDB 10.0.2. This is an alpha release. MariaDB 10.0 is the development version of MariaDB. It is built on the MariaDB 5.5 series with backported features from MySQL 5.6 and entirely new features not found anywhere else. This is the third 10.0-based release, and we are releasing it now to get it into the hands of any who might want to test it. Not all features planned for the MariaDB 10.0 series are included in this release. Additional features will be pushed in future releases. See the release notes and changelog for details on what is new in this release. Do not use alpha releases on production systems. - - Links - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - MariaDB 10.0.2 Alpha - Release Notes: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-1002-release-notes - Changelog: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-1002-changelog - Downloads: http://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/10.0.2 Overview of MariaDB 10.0: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/what-is-mariadb-100 APT and YUM Repository Configuration Generator: http://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/ - - User Feedback plugin - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - MariaDB includes a User Feedback plugin. This plugin is disabled by default. If enabled, it submits basic, completely anonymous MariaDB usage information.

If you would like to help make MariaDB better, please add "feedback=ON" to your my.cnf (my.ini on Windows) file!

However, when a distribution or OS stops receiving security and other updates it becomes difficult to freely provide packages for that platform. In such cases, our policy is to deprecate that platform and stop providing binary packages for it. Accordingly, this will be the final release of MariaDB 10.0 for the following distributions: - Ubuntu 8.04 LTS "Hardy" - Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric" If your chosen Linux Distribution or Operating System is deprecated, packages or support are not completely unavailable. Companies such as SkySQL, Monty Program, and others provide support for all versions of MariaDB back to even very old MySQL versions. This includes packaged binaries. Contact them for more details.
