Mysql database patch problems with 1.8

[icica]

Hello everyone
I tried to use the script to update the mysql database from version 1.6 to 1.8 and I get an error when creating the database expressions

ERROR 1064 (42000) at line 49: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use.

MySql version is 5.0.75-0ubuntu10


Someone knows it can be happening?

Thanks.

yes, there's already an issue submitted at https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-1471
maybe mysql 5.0 specific reserved function name ? works flawlessly on mysql 5.1

Fixed

I Fixed this problem replacing the original create table 'expressions' in the patch.sql file with the following bellow

CREATE TABLE `expressions` (
       `expressionid`            BIGINT UNSIGNED         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       `regexpid`                BIGINT UNSIGNED         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       `expression`              VARCHAR(255)            DEFAULT ''      NOT NULL,
       `expression_type`         INTEGER         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       `exp_delimiter`           VARCHAR(1)              DEFAULT ''      NOT NULL,
       `case_sensitive`          INTEGER         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       PRIMARY KEY (`expressionid`)
) type=INNODB;

i'm running
Mysql and OS 8.4
5.0.75-0ubuntu10.2

[richlv]

well, that's not an entirely valid long term fix - could anybody try this quoting table name and fields one by one to see which one is reserved ?

Hello
I have been tested and the problem is in the field "case_sensitive". I've solved as low10sws6 says.

I have also seen that there are problems with the next statement.
alter table graphs_items color change color varchar (6) DEFAULT '009600 'NOT NULL;
(line 66 approximately)

I've replaced by
alter table `color` graphs_items `modify` varchar (6) DEFAULT '009600 'NOT NULL;

Hi all,

i posted this bug here: https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-1471 .
I fixed it the same way the user low10sws6 did that time, it works perfectly with MySQL 5.4 BETA.
It took about 4 hours and many many database restores to find that bug-_-

[laakness]

So will this fix cause issues in the future? I can't imagine it really would but just wanted to verify.

Edit: Nevermind, I see that there are no changes to the actual data, just the quoting of column names.

Same MySQL errors on upgrade from 1.6 to 1.8.2

Same MySQL errors on upgrade from 1.6 to 1.8.2.

It is beyond my understanding why 1.8.2 has not been updated with the correct SQL commands. It would certainly save a lot of grief to sys. admins.

It's also worth noting that if you do hit up against this problem, you can simply fix the offending SQL statements, remove all prior SQL statements (since they will have executed) and then apply the patch.sql again. This should be OK and save you having to restore and import from backup.

The following changes worked for me.

From low10sws6 post above:

CREATE TABLE `expressions` (
       `expressionid`            BIGINT UNSIGNED         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       `regexpid`                BIGINT UNSIGNED         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       `expression`              VARCHAR(255)            DEFAULT ''      NOT NULL,
       `expression_type`         INTEGER         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       `exp_delimiter`           VARCHAR(1)              DEFAULT ''      NOT NULL,
       `case_sensitive`          INTEGER         DEFAULT '0'     NOT NULL,
       PRIMARY KEY (`expressionid`)
) type=INNODB;

From https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-1471

alter table graphs_items change color color varchar(6) DEFAULT '009600' NOT

It is beyond my understanding why 1.8.2 has not been updated with the correct SQL commands.

it would be appreciated if somebody could point at mysql documentation for specific versions that shows some reserved words that are unquoted in zabbix database file.

[richlv]

i'm probably too daft, but which of the listed reserved words is used in that table definition ?
