I see you've already got Ownership as the answer. You can also try BusinessType?

Hi,
I have just installed MySQL on Linux server.
The server has SSH on it as well.
Now I started facing problems (:
My .NET application is the problem....
How will connect using the MySQLConection if SSH is enabled on the server?
I am getting the following error:
Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts
when I try a basic MySQLConnection conection string.. anything special to add for the SSH?
Thanks

I would have a look at connection strings website[^] this is the MySql page on there is a couple of SSL connection string examples

I tried this but same problem:
sql_connection = new MySqlConnection("server = 10.0.0.111; Port = 3306; Database = bizcards; Uid = root; Pwd = mujtaba; SslMode = Preferred;");

For one of my project I need to create a read only database. I'm authorized to create INSERT and SELECT queries but not UPDATE or DELETE. To do that I suppose I need to add a DATE_STAMP column on each table and adapt all the SELECT to filter only the latest version of my record.
Is this realizable in term of performance, size of data, queries? Do you have suggestions, documentations, links about the subject.
Thank you,

Of course you do not talk about 'read only' database as SQL means it - 'read only' is a state of the database when no-one can do any write functions, including insert.
What you are talking about is that your inserts are fixed and final, can't be removed or updated...
for that you have to learn about GRANT[^]/DENY[^]/REVOKE[^] of SQL permissions...
For instance, this will prevent from user MyUser to run UPDATE and DELETE queries on table MyTable...
DENY UPDATE, DELETE ON MyTable TO MyUser

With proper indexing and eventually partitioning it won't be a problem.

I would call this auditing, unless I have the requirement completely wrong, where you need to track changes but retain only the current information in the table. This is one of the few valid uses for triggers spit.
Use a trigger to fire on inset/update/delete, on insert and delete grab the ID, you don't need each field value here, on update grab the before and after values, the ID on the user and shove them into an audit table.
If you are doing bulk inserts (etl data in) then turn off the triggers before processing.

I think hell just froze over.
Did you just recommend the use of a trigger? (spit)

If it's of any consolation, I'm totally agreeing with you not just in general on this subject but also about this exception.

What you suggest is one of my possibilities but I would like to investigate on the possibility only to allow INSERT and SELECT.
I my case I need to prove that NOBODY can never hack the system and modify a tracking data. A trigger can be deactivated. I would like to GRANT only INSERT and SELECT to all users.
I saw system build for FDA rules where developers or DBA can still have all the power on production database and I saw them removing audit data on production. Wrong and testing data in this case but where is the limit between this and falsification.

Ok so this has nothing to do with read only, it is about locking down your database with enough security to pacify your clients paranoia. Good luck, delving into the high levels of database security is not a trivial excercise. Personally I would try and get hold of a DBA/expert in the area if your client can justify the expense.

It's not about paranoia... unit testing, business and database testing has been for client paranoia and audit validation. In my case it's about respecting law and users protection.

I have two tables
1. A table USER with a USER_ID, NAME, ...
2. A table STATUS with a STATUS_ID, PEOPLE_FK (foreign key to USER_ID), LABEL, DATE_START...
A USER can only have one active status. I use the DATE_START field to keep the history of all status of the user. I never delete a status. If I create a join between USER and STATUS I can easily get all my users with all they status. BUT I would like to create a query to retrieve all my users with they last status only. I'm still learning SQL. What should I use? Is a select in a select recommended? I would like to avoid the solution of with subquesries.
EDIT -- I searched for a duplicate of this question without success. If this question has been already answered just show me the link. thank you.

The probably best solution is to add an ACTIVE column to your STATUS table and make an unique index from ACTIVE and USER_ID. So you never ever will be able to set two rows to active state - or you will try and got an SQL error...
It will also make your query simple as you always ask for WHERE ACTIVE = 1...

CREATE TABLE statuser
([userid] int)
;
INSERT INTO statuser
([userid])
VALUES
(1),
(2)
;
CREATE TABLE stat
([userid] int, [status] int, [startdate] date)
;
INSERT INTO stat
([userid], [status], [startdate])
VALUES
(1, 1, '2012-05-30'),
(1, 2, '2013-06-23')
;
with maxstat as (
select s.userid,max(startdate) startdate
from statuser su
left outer join stat s
on su.userid = s.userid
group by s.userid
)
select s.userid,s.status,s.startdate
from maxstat m
join stat s
on m.userid = s.userid
and m.startdate = s.startdate
Oh, also make a habit of having the same name of the fields in all tables, so if it's called USER_ID in one table don't call it PEOPLE_FK in another.
It's much easier to debug that way.

What is the cost of a trigger in SQL Server? Could we use them or should we avoid to use them? What are the best practice about triggers? Can we use them as business rules?
I'm trying to check the status of a record. I have a table with job offers. Each job offer can have one or more application with differents status. For simplicity let says step 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. When an application reach the step 5 I must check I have only one application with status 5 by job offer and I must set all other application to step 4. Am I clear? Can I do that or this kind of complex check with a trigger?

SQL tables and their relationships/indexes/keys are part of the business logic - so you definitely have business rules on SQL. But, there is a certain level of what to put on SQL and what to save for your code...
Triggers are very powerful to do other things while something happened to one of your tables, but it has a performance penalty. I saw databases where an insert that should take of a fraction of a millisecond took over 2 seconds because of the complex computations and data changes from within a trigger. Also if you got into the trigger things you can easily get a situation where trigger fires trigger that fires trigger...and so on. A very unpleasant situation to deal with when errors occur...
So do not use triggers if you can avoid, try to create stored procedures for complex insert/update scenarios!

With SQL Server there is an inbuilt protection system where you will not get a recursive firing of triggers.
I tested this recently as I was concerned about this sort of behaviour.

You are talking about recursive triggers. I'm about nested triggers...

Does it protect against recursion within your nesting?

Bugger. 
I'll keep staying clear from triggers then.
