im planning on designing a webservice, it will have a lot of data, spread in many tables.
The problem is that there will be tables created constantly (around 5 each day..)
All tables/data will be accessed equally, so I dont know how to set up the system, to create multiple databases, and balance the number of tables equally on each database, or create less databases and have a lot of tables on each one.
to change a mysql database and all its tables to a utf8 charset and collation, however I'm not sure specifically which one I should use. We are currently using latin1_general_ci.
On a forum I've noticed that in a couple of posts I made, sometimes characters such as the euro sign €, and the German ß get converted to question marks.
Being an English forum we don't often have members use these characters but we'd like them displayed correctly when they are.
I don't really know much about character sets and such, but I understand that they contain different characters and treat them differently in comparisons and sorts etc. So which of the following should I be using? utf8_bin utf8_general_ci utf8_unicode_ci
I was leaning towards unicode, but I don't know what the differences between them are. Can anyone advise us on what to use?
This is for MySQL 4.1.22 btw.
I'm certain the problem is not with my browser, and the characters are typed from the keyboard, not copied and pasted from word docs. A charset is specified by a meta tag in the header too.
recently I had problems with backing up my ~150mb database through PHP. And I know some people are backing their databases to a dump file through terminal.
My database contains UTF-8 and other characters. I have tried simply dumping with mysqldump but I doesn't seem to work, when restoring all the characters are messed up.
Is there any command to tell that the database is UTF-8?
I am currently using phpdotnuke for a site, and have a forum linked to it supplied by activemodules.com. I would like to move to a non-cms site and something like vbulletin, so want to convert the forum db from MSSQL to MySQL - and hopefully keep all the posts and login data!
As a complete novice to that process, is there any pointers out there in terms of reading material, non-command line software etc I can use? Has anyone done this conversion, and what are the dangers?
we have mysql 5 setup and this morning at around 10:07 tables started disappearing as they were being accessed by different clients.
Databases that had 40 tables now had 30, etc. Only the tables that were attempted to be accessed were gone. This is the first time something like this has happened.
The following output was given:
This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built, or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong and this may fail.
key_buffer_size=8388600 read_buffer_size=131072 max_used_connections=208 max_connections=500 threads_connected=156 It is possible that mysqld could use up to key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_connections = 1096188 K bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

I mostly work with cPanel/WHM but, I have to work with Plesk for just one client of mine. He's on Plesk becoz I came to know Plesk worked better on 256MB VPS than cPanel in the early days. Hence, on my recommendation, he is on Plesk on a 512 MB Memory VPS till now for all these years.
I wonder how tedious it might be to convert from Plesk to cPanel? The client basically uses Joomala + vBulletin and runs forums as of now.
Also, which CP will perform better on 512 MB VPS - Plesk or cPanel.
I am wondering if there is an easy way to convert apache to nginx on my Plesk 12 server. Ideally, I would like to save all my hosts without having to re set them all up. I have been searching online, but haven't found a simple way to do so.
I have server that has a SINGLE customer on it - this is not economical to run under PPA - how do I remove it from the PPA management and not disrupt the current site/email on it?
The plan is to run it on webmin - there is no way it can justify PPA for 1 site.
I have a database which is growing to have about 100 tables. These tables will grow in size and sometime I will need to use RAID 5, I am told by my server provider.
My questions are:-
1. if these other servers are mirrors, should I have the database stored on each server?
2. when one server gets too busy, does the RAID query a lesser-used server so as not to bog down the first one?
3. Or, do I need to have different content in each db on each server so a query gets what it needs form each?
I am using /usr/bin/mysqlcheck --all-databases --check --auto-repair to check all MySQL DBs every day via cron. But sometimes when the DB crash and is being repaired the tmpdir = in /etc/my.cnf is getting full 100%. Is it any smart way to use some other tmp folder when repairing the DB tables like that?
I am considering on implementing a new firewall in our colo which would have about 10 servers behind it which generates on averages 2.314 megabits/sec for everything.
I am looking at the new Watchguard x750e running version 10 of Fireware which seem like a good fit without breaking the bank but I have also thought of simply implementing a Poweredge server running CentOS and running an IPtables config to provide firewall services.
Anybody have any Feedback on the Watchguard unit or use a Watchguard product in their setup and can comment?
Created_tmp_disk_tables 2,118 The number of temporary tables on disk created automatically by the server while executing statements. If Created_tmp_disk_tables is big, you may want to increase the tmp_table_size value to cause temporary tables to be memory-based instead of disk-based. Created_tmp_files 0 How many temporary files mysqld has created. Created_tmp_tables 5,637 The number of in-memory temporary tables created automatically by the server while executing statements.
I have tried upping tmp_table_size but it's no use. My my.cnf file:

This server has 1GB of RAM, not a dedicated sql server though. RAM usage is low too, 567MB of RAM is being used right now total... is there something I'm overlooking?
I have a website that was running fine for a month or two until my host recently changed some settings on the server, and now it shows a bunch of errors. I contacted the host and they said >
"To avoid the errors, please do not use disabled function. If you need such functionality, you can have your own php.ini on your root http folder containing only necessary option"
Since I'm not a programer, I have no idea what they're talking about. So, I asked them how to do that, they're reply of course was>
"Please consult with the script writer on how to convert ini_set function in your code to php.ini seting. As the script is not encrypted, you can do it with commenting all ini_set calls and write a substitute on php.ini (Create php.ini file in webroot folder)."
I tried to contact the developer, but it appears he has gone MIA! So, now I am left with no clue how to fix the website, so I turn to you guys!
The website is [url]. You can see the errors in the header, but I'll post them here as well>>

My question is, How do I convert ini_set function in my code to php.ini?
I'm facing problem with latest Apache 2.4.9. Previously we used Apache 2.4.7 ​version which supports DER SSL certificates. But Latest Apache(2.4.9) is not working with DER SSL certificates. I have to convert DER certificate to PEM format to start the Apache server. Am i missing anything ? Is DER certificate not supported in Apache 2.4.9 ?
I've got a customer that has a website at hisdomain.com . He created a subdomain called dev.hisdomain.com for the new version of his website. Now he wants to take it live. Had he created dev.hisdomain.com as a subscription instead of a subdomain, it would have been easy to "rename" the old site to old.hisdomain.com and then rename the new site to the current name.
Am I going to have to move all the files around at the command line or is there an easier way to switch around the sites? The server in use is CentOS 6.6
