[Phpmyadmin-devel] $strShowStatusThreads_cachedDescr
by Marc Delisle 14 Oct '05

14 Oct '05

This message looks weird to me: $strShowStatusThreads_cachedDescr = 'The number of threads in the thread cache. The cache hit rate can be calculated as threads_created/Connections. If this value is red you should raise your thread_cache_size.'; Seems to me that the second part is an explanation for Threads_cache_hitrate_% Marc

[Phpmyadmin-devel] current HEAD, MySQL 4.0.x and mysqli
by Marc Delisle 14 Oct '05

14 Oct '05

Hi, can someone reproduce this? HEAD no longer works correctly with MySQL 4.0.x, with mysqli extension. Many symptoms occur, for example: structure only shows the first 7 fields of a table; insert no longer works, etc. Looks like the output of SHOW FIELDS, when fetched in a loop by PMA_DBI_fetch_assoc(), stops after reading the 7th row. Same server works well with QA_2_6_4 + mysqli extension. Works well with HEAD + mysql extension. I know that mysqli is targeted to MySQL 4.1.x+, but... Marc

by Sebastian Mendel 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi, i would prefer if ALL messages related to development, whether they are addressed to specific developers or not, would come through this list at least for me: - no messages can get lost in spam filter - i notice problems not affecting my code but i can have also an eye on this (f.e.) the new import system - i didn't noticed any of the problems Marc reported to Michal (he mentioned in a mail before) - i have all pma-dev related mails in one folder - and for the archive stuff ... -- Sebastian Mendel www.sebastianmendel.de www.sf.net/projects/phpdatetime | www.sf.net/projects/phptimesheet

Hi all I just switched all SQL splitting to new import system. I'd like to especially thank to Marc for testing it and giving me nice feedback. I tried to test all possible code paths, but there still might me minor problems, so please test it and send me feedback (bug tracking is preferred as you probably won't be the only one facing problems). -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Registration / Installationstatisitics
by Sebastian Mendel 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi, how about add an 'Registration' in main.php which leads to local registration form this form could collect, of course after explaining and asking for permission: - number of servers/databases/tables handled with this installation - currently installed versions of PHP, PMA, MySQL - used extension mysql, mysqli - changed configuration (different from default) - used theme - registration information (email, name, company, ... ) - hash of installation path (as unique id for installation) - hash of server connection string (as unique id for servers) - a free textfield for additional comments this can be stored local, or at least a hash over all, to recognize changes and update registration and of course in the phpMyAdmin project database so we can - make most used settings to default - send security alerts on specific versions - statistics on used versions - and much more ... -- Sebastian Mendel www.sebastianmendel.de www.sf.net/projects/phpdatetime | www.sf.net/projects/phptimesheet

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Import rewite
by Michal Čihař 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi all I finally managed to make new import in some state, I'm ready to publish it a bit. It's available in patch tracker [1]. As you can read in patch tracker, basic goals of this rewrite are: - plugin based import system - LOAD DATA independent CSV loading - time/memory limit workarounds - default configuration of import stored in config Current state is not yet complete. Plugin architecture is there, it should correctly deal with php time/memory limits. However design is probably not final and there are still some things need to be fixed (charset support, finalizing CSV plugin, etc.). If you have time, you're welcome to provide this some testing. Thanks! 1. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1288933&group_id=… -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com

[Phpmyadmin-devel] using md5(table_name) for identifying a table in PMA_showMessage()
by Sebastian Mendel 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hi, PMA_showMessage() in common.lib.php uses md5() for generating the table-id, why md5() why not cleartext? and second: why only the table-name? the table is not unique if you have more than one db ... i would change this, if no one complaints. -- Sebastian Mendel www.sebastianmendel.de www.sf.net/projects/phpdatetime | www.sf.net/projects/phptimesheet
