Thats why you reconnect every so often...

omg 15 hours :O very nice i need it too

Mine works for 15 hours using MySQL, it doesn't take a genius....

ye... mine will work for over 24 hrs str8 with mysql... lol

You actually don't understand -_-

too many long command strings will over load mysql, this is true.. but if you set a quick function up to go off every hour or so, and null out Connection and then reconnect it to MySql, you can stop this problem from happening.

Mine reconnects every like 5 minutes ._. Maybe a wee bit excessive :]

1. MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException: Duplicate entry 'character name' for key 1

How i fixed it: In the accounts column look at charr and replace it with the correct character name. One thing that happens when using /changename. Changes the name in the character column but not the one in the accounts column. Result: that above comes up on the console.....

2. Thats fucked up o.0 never seen that

Anyway i will stay with SQL Server

Security remains a major concern for most businesses and a compelling consideration in choosing a database system. Both DBMS support security at the base level. MySQL is limited to supporting basic security at the table level, via the SQL command. By contrast, SQL server fully supports security at the column level. Another important consideration is security certificates - the verification of the database security by a third party. SQL Server has been certified as C-2 compliant, which means the database system has adequate security for government applications. MySQL has no such certification. Moving on to more advanced features of protecting data on the database, the SQL Server 2005 have implemented more advanced authentication and authorisation features.

Quote:

SQL Server is more failsafe and less prone to data corruption. SQL has a robust checkpoint mechanism whereby the data passes from the keyboard to the hard drive before showing in the monitor. Even if the databases shut down unexpectedly without warning, the data can be recovered. New features in the SQL 2005 release provide enhanced mechanisms to manage data protection and rapid restoration. Mirrored backups allow you to create multiple copies of the backup file. These backups have identical content, so you can always mix the files in case one of the sets becomes corrupt. Copy only backups enable you to make a copy of the database without interrupting the sequence of other backup files. This copy can be used to restore your database, instead of going through the full backup and translation log. You can also save time by using partial backups for all filegroups, except those marked as read-only. MySQL falls short in recovery with its default MyISAM mechanism. The UPS assumes uninterrupted data, and in the event of an unexpected shutdown your data can be lost and the data store corrupted.

wow they made a few SIMPLE additions to MySql, and they have to write all that trying to hype it up?
