Help really needed :( - P<3TS - 10.08.2012

Hello.
My server is having more that +10000 user accounts in volt host.Now the server is lagging like hell, i asked about this in volt support they told me i have to convert the script to MySQL cuz pawno cannot hold a large amount of user accounts and thats the main cause of lag.
I'm currently using ladmin system, i know how to script pawno but no idea about MySQL. I searched tutorials but i didnt understand anything. I really want to convert my script to MySQL otherwise i have to close my server forever.
Can anyone please tell me how can i convert my script to MySQL?

Register command

    if (udb_Exists(PlayerName2(playerid))) return SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED,"ACCOUNT: This account already exists, please use '/login [password]'.");
    if (strlen(params) == 0) return SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED,"ACCOUNT: Correct usage: '/register [password]'");

As far as i know,writing/reading in files has always been faster than SQL.

You but that don't mean that they is taking less memory on your harddrive,
Edit after reading FalconX post: i think this what i said might be wrong, the memory usage may be the same but it'll be faster searching mysql

and bout the maint topic, try search ****** for basic tutorials and try to understand the tutorials on this forum becuse once you do you'll understand how to use it and it'll become pretty easy.(another option is that you pay someone to convert it for you I've see a-lot op peoples having int their signatures like(converting ini to mysql for cash) etc.)

Hmm, well if you have more then 10k users in your server and you want to loop them to check how many users are registered it will take such a long time to read each and every file for checking, I use MySQL and recommend people to use. Everyone thinks their own way - different people different thoughts.

https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/Mysql_tutorial

I believe this will help you in learning MySQL. Following is hOw you can make a framework or connection setup, put the following at top:-

pawn Код:

#define SQL_HOST "localhost"
#define SQL_USER "root"
#define SQL_PASS ""
#define SQL_DB "DB_NAME"//  You'll have to change this to the name of the database created in phpMyAdmin

And now put "ConnectMySQL( );" in OnGamemodeInit and the following can be put anywhere you want.

pawn Код:

forward ConnectMySQL();
public ConnectMySQL()
{
    mysql_connect(SQL_HOST, SQL_USER, SQL_DB, SQL_PASS))
*
        if(mysql_ping() == 1)
        {    
            mysql_debug(1);
        printf("[MYSQL]: Connection to `%s` succesful!", SQL_DB);
    } 
    else
    {
        printf("[MYSQL]: [ERROR]: Connection to `%s` failed!", SQL_DB);
    }
    return 1;
}

Now for queries you can get help from Tizag.com it is a very helpful site.

What is the difference between SQL and MySQL?

SQlite does not require a server to be set up, it is usually used with an application to allow data to be stored, this might be a contact list etc. It can only be used locally (i think).

MySQL is designed for hosting any size of database on a server which will be accessed by a website or an application.

Re: Help really needed :( - P<3TS - 11.08.2012

So i have to add like this in the script?

pawn Код:

#define SQL_HOST "localhost"
#define SQL_USER "root"
#define SQL_PASS ""
#define SQL_DB "DB_NAME"//  You'll have to change this to the name of the database created in phpMyAdmin

pawn Код:

#define MySQL_HOST "localhost"
#define MySQL_USER "root"
#define MySQL_PASS ""
#define MySQL_DB "DB_NAME"//  You'll have to change this to the name of the database created in phpMyAdmin

Actually it doesn't matter as you are going to use MySQL so the define can be anything you like if you're gonna use

pawn Код:

#define MySQL_HOST "localhost"
#define MySQL_USER "root"
#define MySQL_PASS ""
#define MySQL_DB "DB_NAME"//  You'll have to change this to the name of the database created in phpMyAdmin

Then you have to change it in the connection callback too:

pawn Код:

forward ConnectMySQL();
public ConnectMySQL()
{
* * mysql_connect(MySQL_HOST, MySQL_USER, MySQL_DB, MySQL_PASS))
*
* * * * if(mysql_ping() == 1)
* * * * { * *
* * * * * * mysql_debug(1);
* * * * printf("[MYSQL]: Connection to `%s` succesful!", MySQL_DB);
* * } 
* * else
* * {
* * * * printf("[MYSQL]: [ERROR]: Connection to `%s` failed!", MySQL_DB);
* * }
* * return 1;
}

Else if you're using SQLite define then you will have to use:

pawn Код:

forward ConnectMySQL();
public ConnectMySQL()
{
* * mysql_connect(SQL_HOST, SQL_USER, SQL_DB, SQL_PASS))
*
* * * * if(mysql_ping() == 1)
* * * * { * *
* * * * * * mysql_debug(1);
* * * * printf("[MYSQL]: Connection to `%s` succesful!", SQL_DB);
* * } 
* * else
* * {
* * * * printf("[MYSQL]: [ERROR]: Connection to `%s` failed!", SQL_DB);
* * }
* * return 1;
}

Remove *

if i install and use mysql then all the player userfiles are going to database right? then no user files will be in scriptfiles?

Re: Help really needed :( - kickerbat - 11.08.2012

Your users will have to create new accounts. (unless you code a specific script to check if .ini files exist etc)

But much faster and less server load if you use MySQL.

Heres a Login/Register MySQL script, http://pastebin.com/eT0xTThB
