Multi-column update based on joined table
by Lee Hachadoorian 11 Aug '24

11 Aug '24

I need to update multiple columns (~250) from one table to another based on a two-column key. In Postgres I would write this using the FROM clause, but since MonetDB doesn't support the FROM clause, I've successfully updated one column with: UPDATE census.acs2010_5yr SET b07401001 = ( SELECT CAST(b07401001 AS int) FROM acs2010_5yr.tmp_seq0001 WHERE acs2010_5yr.stusab = tmp_seq0001.stusab AND acs2010_5yr.logrecno = tmp_seq0001.logrecno ); My question is whether there is any benefit to writing a multiple column update into a single UPDATE statement: UPDATE target_table SET column1 = (SELECT column1 FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key), column2 = (SELECT column2 FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key), ..., columnN = (SELECT columnN FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key); On Postgres I believe the multi-column update using a table join would only have to do the sequential scan of each table once, but with the necessity of sub-selects in MonetDB, what is the backend doing? Is it already doing an index scan once for each row in the single column case, then doing it once for each row * column in the multi-column case?

[MonetDB-users] XQuery API and XLink/XUpdate support
by Alexandra Mart�nez 27 Jun '24

27 Jun '24

Hello all, I was wondering if there is any documentation about the API for XQuery (i.e., how to write xqueries from a Java program). Also, I am interested in using some features of XLink and XUpdate on top of my XML database. Is support for any of these in progress? Thanks in advance, Alexandra ______________________________________________________ Click here to donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. http://store.yahoo.com/redcross-donate3/

Recovering database after BBPcheckbats error
by imad hajj chahine 24 Aug '22

24 Aug '22

Hi, I am using version Jan2022-SP2, and after a server restart I had the BBPcheckbats error. I upgraded to the latest version Jan2022-SP4 as it has the fix for this reported bug, and I am still unable to start the database. After manually editing the BBP.dir file and removing the entries on which the database failed to load with messages similar to (BBPcheckbats file /bat/01/67/16774.tail1 too small (expected 143640, actual 0), I managed to make the database start and connect to it and query the tables successfully. Is this the right way to recover from this? what I am risking losing by deleting these entries, should I have corrupted tables that are affected by these entries? What is exactly the role of BBP.dir? any documentation describing the use of this file. Appreciate your help. Thank you.

Copy into from stdin hanging after upgrade to 11.43.21
by imad hajj chahine 23 Aug '22

23 Aug '22

Hi, I have a bunch of dump sql files generated using msqldump command, that I was loading without any error to the version 11.43.15. After upgrading to version 11.43.21 to avoid the BBPCheckbats bug, loading the dump started to hang the server. Downgrading back to 11.43.15 fixed the issue. the command I am using to load the dump: mclient -d dbname -f sql < "pathtofile/dump.sql" sample dump file: COPY 1 RECORDS INTO tablename FROM stdin USING DELIMITERS '\t','\n','"'; Thank you.

Announcement: New Jan2022-SP4 Bugfix release of MonetDB suite
by Sjoerd Mullender 22 Aug '22

22 Aug '22

The MonetDB team at MonetDB Solutions BV is pleased to announce the Jan2022-SP4 bugfix release of the MonetDB suite of programs. More information about MonetDB can be found on our website at <https://www.monetdb.org/>. For details on this release, please see the release notes at <https://www.monetdb.org/documentation/admin-guide/release-notes/jan2022/>. As usual, the download location is <https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/>. ### Client Package - Implemented dump of global grants, that is to say, grants for COPY INTO and COPY FROM which grant permission to users to write to or read from files on the server (COPY INTO queries without the ON CLIENT option). - Fixed a bug where when the semicolon at the end of a COPY INTO query that reads from STDIN is at exactly a 10240 byte boundary in a file, the data isn't read as input for the COPY INTO but instead as a new SQL query. ### MonetDB Common - A bug was fixed when upgrading a database from the Oct2020 releases (11.39.X) or older when the write-ahead log (WAL) was not empty and contained instructions to create new tables. - When destroying a bat, make sure there are no files left over in the BACKUP directory since they can cause problems when the bat id gets reused. - Fixed an off-by-one error in the logger which caused older log files to stick around longer in the write-ahead log than necessary. - When an empty BAT is committed, skip writing (and synchronizing to disk) the heap (tail and theap) files and write 0 for their sizes to the BBP.dir file. When reading the BBP.dir file, if an empty BAT is encountered, set the sizes of those files to 0. This fixes potential issues during startup of the server (BBPcheckbats reporting errors). - Make sure heap files of transient bats get deleted when the bat is destroyed. If the bat was a partial view (sharing the vheap but not the tail), the tail file wasn't deleted. - Various changes were made to satisfy newer compilers. - The batDirtydesc and batDirtyflushed Boolean values have been deprecated and are no longer used. They were both holdovers from long ago. - Various race conditions (data races) have been fixed. - All accesses to the BACKUP directory need to be protected by the same lock. The lock already existed (GDKtmLock), but wasn't used consistently. This is now fixed. Hopefully this makes the hot snapshot code more reliable. ### MonetDB5 Server - Various race conditions (data races) have been fixed. ### Merovingian - When multiple identical messages are written to the log, write the first one, and combine subsequent ones in a single message. - Fixed a leak where the log file wasn't closed when it was reopened after a log rotation (SIGHUP signal). - Try to deal more gracefully with "inherited" mserver5 processes. This includes not complaining about an "impossible state", and allowing such processes to be stopped by the monetdbd process. - When a transient failure occurs during processing of a new connection to the monetdbd server, sleep for half a second so that if the transient failure occurs again, the log file doesn't get swamped with error messages. ### Bug Fixes - [7040](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7040): Memory leak detected for MAPI interface - [7298](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7298): Irresponsive database server after reading incomplete SQL script. - [7308](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7308): Race condition in MVCC transaction management

Re: Define a cast function from day_interval to int
by yunus 08 Aug '22

08 Aug '22

Hello Imad, Without going into too much detail, you might want to start having a look at the MonetDB-extend <https://www.monetdb.org/hg/MonetDB-extend> repository. Also keep in mind, that the use of MAL scripts for declaring C functions in MAL is deprecated in favor of the command and pattern preprocessor macro's. Regards, Yunus

Aggregation on double column in different monetdb version
by imad hajj chahine 04 Aug '22

04 Aug '22

Hi, I am currently migrating monetdb from an old version to the current release, and I noticed that sum on double precision columns is returning a slightly different result between both versions. The only difference between the system is HugeInt enabled on the newer version. ex: To reproduce the mismatch (subset of values extracted from the table) SELECT sum(cast(c1 as double)) --, sum(c1) FROM (VALUES (218.5792349726776),(792.3497267759564),(846.9945355191256),(819.6721311475409),(846.9945355191256),(819.6721311475409),(846.9945355191256),(846.9945355191256),(819.6721311475409),(846.9945355191256),(819.6721311475409),(846.9945355191256),(657.5342465753424),(4109.58904109589),(4234.972677595628),(3961.748633879781),(4234.972677595628),(4098.360655737704),(4234.972677595628),(4098.360655737704),(4234.972677595628),(4234.972677595628),(4098.360655737704),(4234.972677595628),(4098.360655737704),(273.224043715847),(219.1780821917808),(821.917808219178),(849.3150684931506),(846.9945355191256),(792.3497267759564),(846.9945355191256),(819.6721311475409),(846.9945355191256),(819.6721311475409),(846.9945355191256),(846.9945355191256),(819.6721311475409),(655.7377049180328),(249.3150684931507),(1104.109589041096),(1101.092896174863),(1030.054644808743),(1101.092896174863),(1065.573770491803),(1101.092896174863),(1065.573770491803),(1101.092896174863),(1101.092896174863),(1065.573770491803),(1101.092896174863),(852.4590163934427),(219.1780821917808),(1698.630136986301),(1643.835616438356),(1698.630136986301),(1693.989071038251),(1584.699453551912),(1693.989071038251),(1639.344262295081),(1693.989071038251),(1639.344262295081),(1693.989071038251),(1693.989071038251),(1475.409836065573),(60.27397260273972),(1868.493150684931),(1808.219178082191),(1868.493150684931),(1863.387978142076),(1743.169398907103),(1863.387978142076),(1803.27868852459),(1863.387978142076),(1803.27868852459),(1863.387978142076),(1863.387978142076),(1803.27868852459),(258.9041095890410),(381.1475409836065),(356.5573770491803),(381.1475409836065),(368.8524590163934),(381.1475409836065),(368.8524590163934),(381.1475409836065),(381.1475409836065),(368.8524590163934),(381.1475409836065),(368.8524590163934),(135.2459016393442),(542.4657534246575),(904.1095890410959),(934.2465753424657),(931.6939890710382),(871.5846994535519),(931.6939890710382),(901.639344262295),(931.6939890710382),(901.639344262295) ) t1 (c1) old-V11.27.11: 137756.87551463424 new-V11.43.15: 137756.8755146343 ExactValue: 137756.87551463430452 The aggregation over double columns should return the same result regardless of the engine versions, as the double precision type did not change, unless there was a bug reported and it was fixed. Any idea what could affect the result difference. Regards.

Define a cast function from day_interval to int
by imad hajj chahine 03 Aug '22

03 Aug '22

Hi, I am currently migrating monetdb from an old version to the current release, and I noticed that the difference of 2 dates return a day_interval and cannot be cast to an int and I have to use the "day" function for this purpose. This is fine for newly written scripts, but for old scripts I am hoping to avoid a rewrite. ex: cast(date1-date2 as int) return an error: types day_interval(4,0) and int(32,0) are not equal How to define a cast function from day_interval to int to avoid any changes to the old scripts?
