-ByV.Gouthaman.
INTRODUCTIONMySQL is a relational database
management system (RDBMS) that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases.
The MySQL development project has made its source code available under the terms of the GNU General Public License, as well as under a variety of proprietary agreements. MySQL is owned and sponsored by a single for-profit firm, the Swedish company MySQL AB, now owned by Sun Microsystems, a subsidiary of Oracle Corporation.
Members of the MySQL community have created several forks such as Drizzle and MariaDB. Both forks were in progress before the Oracle acquisition (Drizzle was announced 8 months before the Sun acquisition).
Free-software projects that require a full-featured database management system often use MySQL. Such projects include (for example) WordPress, phpBB, Drupal and other software built on the LAMP software stack. MySQL is also used in many high-profile, large-scale World Wide Web products including Wikipedia, Google and Facebook.
INSTALLING MYSQL
Install MySQL 5.0 Community Edition on Windows
Step 1 :Download MySQL 5.0 Community Edition to your Desktop from
“http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.0/mysql-5.0.45-win32.zip/from/pick#mirrors”. Make sure you always download the “Complete
package “.
Step 2 :Unzip mysql-5.0.45-win32.zip (the downloaded mysql file) to get Setup.exe. Double click Setup.exe to start installing
MySQL. Click “Next ” when you are prompted as below.
Step 3 : Select “Typical” for Setup Type and click “Next ” again.
Step 4 : Click “Install ” to proceed with the installation process.
Step 5 : The setup activity will show you some advertisement. Read it if you wish and click
“Next “.
Step 6: Tick “Configure the MySQL Server now” and click “Next ” two times.
Step 7: Click “Standard Configuration” to ease installation process and click “Next ” again.
Step 8 : Tick “Install As Windows Service” to make MySQL auto-startup with Windows and “Include Bin Directory in
Windows PATH ” to make MySQL system files automatically available for other application.
Step 9 : Tick “Modify Security Settings” and enter a root (Administrator) password to secure your MySQL
installation. Don’t skip this step! Click “Next ” again.
Step 10 : Click “Execute” to start the MySQL Configuration process. Once finished, click
“Finish ” to end configuration.
Step 11: Make sure MySQL runs automatically after installation. You can check the status from
Administrative Tools Services snap in (Start -> Programs -> Administrative Tools -> Services ), also available via
Control Panel.
Step 12 : (OPTIONAL) Open your DOS command prompt (Run -> cud). Type in “net stat -na“. Check out ports opened by MySQL (3306) and Apache (80) . That
means the services are up and running.
Step 13 : (OPTIONAL) Run some of MySQL commands to further ensure that the installation is a success. Check out and follow the commands as pictured below. User account is root and password depends on what you have entered
previously during your MySQL configuration.
Step 14 : IMPORTANT:
Reboot your machine! This is to ensure all MySQL system files
are rss-read by Windows as environment variables.
QUERY COMMANDS
IN MYSQL
CREATE CommandThe Create command is used to create a table by specifying the tablename, fieldnames and constraints as shown below:
Syntax:
$createSQL=("CREATE TABLE tblName");
Example:
$createSQL=("CREATE TABLE tblstudent(fldstudid int(10) NOTNULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,fldstudName VARCHAR(250) NOTNULL,fldstudentmark int(4) DEFAULT '0' ");
SELECT CommandThe Select command is used to select the records from a table using its field names. To select all the fields in a table, '*' is used in the command. The result is assigned to a variable name as shown below:
Syntax:
$selectSQL=("SELECT field_names FROM tablename");
Example:
$selectSQL=("SELECT * FROM tblstudent");
DELETE Command
The Delete command is used to delete the records from a table using conditions as shown below:
Syntax:
$deleteSQL=("DELETE * FROM tablename WHERE condition");
Example:
$deleteSQL=("DELETE * FROM tblstudent WHERE fldstudid=2");
INSERT CommandThe Insert command is used to insert records into a table. The values are assigned to the field names as shown below:
Syntax:
$insertSQL=("INSERT INTO tblname(fieldname1,fieldname2..) VALUES(value1,value2,...) ");
Example:
$insertSQL=("INSERT INTO Tblstudent(fldstudName,fldstudmark)VALUES(Baskar,75) ");
UPDATE CommandThe Update command is used to update the field values using conditions. This is done using 'SET' and the fieldnames to assign new values to them.
Syntax:
$updateSQL=("UPDATE Tblname SET (fieldname1=value1,fieldname2=value2,...) WHERE fldstudid=IdNumber");
Example:
$updateSQL=("UPDATE Tblstudent SET (fldstudName=siva,fldstudmark=100) WHERE fldstudid=2");
DROP Command
The Drop command is used to delete all the records in a table using the table name as shown below:
Syntax:
$dropSQL=("DROP tblName");
Example:
$dropSQL=("DROP tblstudent");
Login to MySQL monitor
Syntax:
..\mysql\bin\mysql -u[username] -p[password]
