I'm not much of a database expert (in fact I don't like databases at all), but I think they use some sort of a hash based system to store data (or is that only for the indexes). anyone who knows datastructures will tell you that you use hashes for key based access, and arrays for record number (array index) based access. -- I THINK MAN INVENTED THE CAR by instinct. -- Jack Handley, The New Mexican, 1988.

small help with scripting
by Poonam P 01 Jul '02

Hi, I am trying to write a small script to fetch a certain record (say record no. 25) from a mysql db. I have written the following script after reading a Mysql book, but I am not able to understand as to how to fetch a given record no., or get records between a given range... like all records between 24th - 29th .. A small part of the script... #!/usr/bin/perl use DBI; use strict; my ($dsn)="DBI:mysql:test:localhost"; my ($dbh,$sth); my (@ary); my ($aaa); my ($bbb); # Connect to databse $dbh = DBI-> connect ($dsn,{RaiseError=>1}); # Issue query $sth = $dbh -> prepare ("SELECT item1 from list1"); $sth-> execute(); $bbb = $sth->fetchrow; $aaa = $sth->fetchrow; print $bbb; print $aaa; $sth-> finish (); $dbh-> disconnect (); exit (0); Can someone please help me.... Thanks in advance. Poonam ________________________________________________________________________ Want to sell your car? advertise on Yahoo Autos Classifieds.

Earlier on >whenever i used to install some package using RPM it >used to throw some errors like >rpm_db error .. something .. hmmm... use root instead of a privileged account. If you are using root, the BDB tables where rpm stores package information is not being updated. Use rpm with initdb or rebuilddb switches :). Again, try making rpm puke out a more verbose output so that you can see what is going wrong. The switch for this is -v. You can try -vv too :). > Now whenever I try to install or uninstall any >package it just says "Segmentation fault" .. I find this is normal if you are not using Linux with comaptible hardare. Otherwise get your hardware especially memory SIMMS checked. Regards, --AH. _________________________________________________________ There is always a better job for you at Monsterindia.com.

Poonam P spewed into the ether: >Hi, >I am trying to write a small script to fetch a certain >record (say record no. 25) from a mysql db. You will need to use a WHERE clause in your select query. SELECT item1 from list1 WHERE itemnum = 25 (Assuming you have a column itemnum containing the record number). >I have written the following script after reading a >Mysql book, but I am not able to understand as to how >to fetch a given record no., or get records between a >given range... like all records between 24th - 29th ..

What is the >[snip] > if u just wanna host 1 site...u wouldnt need Virtual >servers for that. Virtual servers r for dudes who >would like to do multiple domain hosting. I have fiddled *even crashed* Apache by doing strange things, and I find keeping a virtual host actually helps. Atleast, your apache documentation remains accessible at http://localhost at all times ;). Well, as for your problem goes Unmesh you can use a DNS server. But the way you ask your question, I guess you haven't set one up. Still, you can get the thing done a DNS server. In the file /etc/hosts, you can add the IP address and the Domain you want. Also you have set the DNS search order to host and then DNS. This you can do using linuxconf I guess. But remember from wherever you plan to access your intranet site you must make changes there. *manageable if your Network is small enuff*. Similar settings can be done on your windows based clients as well. All you now have to do is setup up Apache accordingly.
