Scheme conversion MySQL to PGSQL
Hello * I try to convert a Database scheme from mySQL to pgSQL and have problems with the line: KEY post_date (post_date) and later probably with the lines UNIQUE KEY user (stat_login) and KEY forum_id (forum_id) too. How to solv this prolem? Thanks Michelle 8< CREATE TABLE sqmf_forum ( forum_id serial NOT NULL, forum_namevarchar(50) NOT NULL, forum_description varchar(250)NOT NULL, forum_visible integer NOT NULL default '0', display_order integer NOT NULL default '1', PRIMARY KEY (forum_id) ); CREATE TABLE sqmf_post ( post_id serial NOT NULL, thread_id integer NOT NULL, post_loginvarchar NOT NULL, post_date timestamp NOT NULL, post_content textNOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (post_id), KEY post_date (post_date) ); CREATE TABLE sqmf_stat ( stat_loginvarchar(70) NOT NULL, stat_post integer default '1', stat_thread integer default '1', PRIMARY KEY (stat_login), UNIQUE KEY user (stat_login) ); CREATE TABLE sqmf_thread ( thread_id serial NOT NULL, forum_id integer NOT NULL, thread_login varchar(70) NOT NULL, thread_date datetimeNOT NULL, thread_title varchar(200)NOT NULL, thread_contentlongtextNOT NULL, nb_view integer NOT NULL default '0', nb_post integer NOT NULL default '1', last_post_datedatetimeNOT NULL, last_post_login varchar(70) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (thread_id), KEY forum_id (forum_id) ); 8<-------- -- Michelle Konzack 00372-54541400

[OT] subscribtion with no-mail option?
Hello anyone, is there an option for the pgsql lists to subscribe only for posting and not receiving messages? I can read them in the archives, but the is one of the most active lists I am subscribed to. Not even can beat that. (there I can whitelist me, without receiving messages) Oh, I should say, that I live in Estonia far away from any lelephone land lines, hence no DSL availlable and I am on GSM/4G/LTE and if I would not have the NO-MAIL option, I would need to download more the 3000 messages a day where I am only interested in less the 5%. Note: I am currently programming a new PHP-Webinterface for my mail server which let me better choose, what I want to se and what not, hence deleting anything which is not relevant to me and has not some keywords in it. It is just worse, that I have to be subscribed to more then 80 mailing lists only to be able to post 200-300 messages per month and get maybe 2000 messages back, but have to download more then 100.000 messages a month with more then 1000 MByte. THis is just waste of resources and is very costly over the time. There is no benefit for the mailinglste except for my ISP and Telecom provider which bill me nicely... more then 100€ per month!

IIRC, there were following options: > > 1- Email every messgages > 2- Daily digest of messages > 3- No email of any message. > > Option (3) can be used for only posting. I did that for some time. When I was subscribed some years ago, it was easy, but the option is now missing. The Internet became realy crap... Sourceforge, PostgreSQL... everywhere you must create accounts to access mailinglists! Then every month, Sourceforge unsubscribe me from the lists and I have to re.subscribe. Subscribtion per EMail not more possibel. It is really annoying! -- Michelle KonzackMiila ITSystems @ TDnet GNU/Linux Developer 00372-54541400 signature.asc Description: Digital signature
[table partitioning] How many partitions are possibel?
Hello *, Long time ago I used VIEWs on my history database and when PostgreSQL introduced table partitioning I was switching to it. Currently I use Debian GNU/Linux 7.11 with PostgreSQL 9.1 (table space and table partitioning) using an Adaptec 16-Channel Raid-1 Controller with 16x 6 TByte SAS UltraStar (HGST) drives. I created partitions of 100 years range and have currently 132 of them. There are 8 base columns (1 data colum in english) and then for each language used an additional colum. Some of the data where translated into 27 languages but I have 56 non-english columns. So in total I have currently 64 columns and arround 156mio rows. Th etables are organised into history_earth history_earth_021_a history_earth_020_a history_earth_019_a ... history_earth_124_b ... "a" mean A.C. and "b" B.C. While checking my Root-Servers I discovered, that my PostgreSQL Box has a huge performance problem, because some table partitions became VERY large (3 table partitions exceed already 1 TByte and 14 are 500-1000GB). I like to make the partitions smaller, but the documentation say, you should not dare to make several 1000 partitions.. Question: What is with is today possibel with table partitioning? And there is another thing: The 16 "new" SAS Drives where sponsored, hence free for me including the new Raid-1 Controller, but I do not like the idea, to have a singel physical database of arround 40 TByte diskspace... I can get much less expensive (not cheaper) SAS drives of 1 or 2 TByte and since the Raid-1 Controller cost only 400, I can use several LOW POWER machines (Mini-ITX) to accomplish the task because the webinterface is anyway stored on a seperated server. Any suggestions? -- Michelle Konzack 00372-54541400

Currently I am thinking about hot to backup 28 TByte of data... Have to dump and compress table by table and thios take endless time, especially, if I am in Estonia and the database is in Germany.

Re: [table partitioning] How many partitions are possibel?
Thanks for the info. I think, it is not worth to do the migration to v10 now and then some month later to v11. I hope, my v9.1 will survive the version jump. What do you think? My database has no complex things in it. I keept it realy on basic level to avoid problems if I have to upgrade.

Re: Mailing list archiver
Hi Jordan, I was on the GIT server, but is there a possibility, to get the whole thing as tar ball? I am currently under this horribel Windows 7 because the screen of my Compaq Laptop broke (simply black) and I am unable to get things from the GIT server except file by file. This, why I have to use the old squirrelmail instead of mutt... Ahja, I do not use Majordomo, which mean, I have to change things in the files but I like to know, how you get the incoming messages into the database? I generally filter the messages trough procmail and feed it to the appropriated program to process them. Thanks Michelle Am DATE hackte AUTHOR in die Tasten: Jordan Deitch > Thanks for the feedback!
