https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MysqlPasswordReset
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop
sudo /usr/sbin/mysqld --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &
mysql -u root # now you can connect without passwor
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
SET PASSWORD FOR root@'localhost' = PASSWORD('password');
UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('newpwd') WHERE User='root';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
SELECT User FROM mysql.user; # all mysql users
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
aparently there is no such thing you have to
mysqldump -u root -p originl_database > original_database.sql
mysql -u root -p -e "create database my_new_database"
mysql -u root -p my_new_database < original_database.sql
myqsl -u root -p -e "GRANT ALL ON db1.* TO 'jeffrey'"
mysql -u root -p -e drop database originl_database

show databases;
show tables;
drop database database_name;
create database database_name;
use database_name;
desc table;
select count(*) from categories;
ANALYZE TABLE my_table
SHOW INDEX IN my_table; #show index on table
to get inmmiditae cardinality you can do:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT age) AS cardinality FROM user;
to drop an index you can do:
DROP INDEX dn_ownerships_ix on my_table;
to test performance use:
EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM whatever_table;
however you'll probably need to disable caching
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'query_cache_size';
SET GLOBAL query_cache_size = 0;
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'have_query_cache';
and restart mysql server
hash index
from: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3567981/how-do-mysql-indexes-work/3568214#3568214
to index big string (like url) create column e.g.: url_hash
and store there CRC version of string
SELECT url FROM url_table WHERE url_hash=CRC32("http://gnu.org") AND url="http://gnu.org";
