MySQL : The host localhost does not support SSL connections


When I moved database MySql.Data 7.0.7 to 8.0.8. I got following error

The host localhost does not support SSL connections.

So, here is the solution for this error ,Just add SslMode=none in connection string

server=localhost;user id=roor;password=xyz;persistsecurityinfo=True;port=123;database=TestDB; SslMode=none

Hope it helps !

SQL : Paging in Stored Procedure


Create simple Student table using following script

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Student]( [ID] [int] NOT NULL, [Name] [varchar](50) NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GO

The OFFSET-FETCH clause is used to fetch specif records. OFFSET-FETCH can be used only with the ORDER BY clause.

Stored Procedure :

SP

Limitations in Using OFFSET-FETCH

  • ORDER BY is mandatory to use OFFSET and FETCH clause.
  • OFFSET clause is mandatory with FETCH. You can never use, ORDER BY … FETCH.
  • TOP cannot be combined with OFFSET and FETCH in the same query expression.
  • The OFFSET/FETCH rowcount expression can be any arithmetic, constant, or parameter expression that will return an integer value. The rowcount expression does not support scalar sub-queries.

MYSQL : How to skip first 10 records from a SELECT query and take next 10?


We know there are skip and take operators available in linq to skip and take

The Take operator is used to return a given number of rows from a object list and the Skip operator skips over a specified number of rows in object list.

var employee = (from emp in employeeContext.EMPLOYEEs

where emp.SALARY < 1300

select emp).Skip(2).Take(5);

Is there a way in MySQL to achieve the same like have the first 10 result from a SELECT query skipped and select next 10?

Answer : Yes we can use LIMIT with two parameter

Introduction to MySQL LIMIT clause

The LIMIT clause is used in the SELECT statement to constrain the number of rows in a result set. The LIMIT clause accepts one or two arguments. The values of both arguments must be zero or positive integers.

The following illustrates the LIMIT clause syntax with two arguments:

Let’s examine the LIMIT clause parameters:

  • The offset specifies the offset of the first row to return. The offset of the first row is 0, not 1.
  • The count specifies the maximum number of rows to return.

When you use the LIMIT clause with one argument, this argument will be used to determine the maximum number of rows to return from the beginning of the result set.

SELECT *  FROM table LIMIT count;

Use LIMIT with two parameters. For example, to return results 11-60 (where result 1 is the first row), use:

SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT 10, 50

Get Row Number in MySQL


SQL Server

To return a row number with record we have ROW_NUMBER() in SQL which  returns the sequential number of a row within a partition of a result set, starting at 1 for the first row in each partition.

Syntax:

ROW_NUMBER ( )
OVER ( [ PARTITION BY value_expression , … [ n ] ] order_by_clause )

MY SQL

Here I am explaining how to return row number in my sql

For Example we have following table

CREATE TABLE tblSales(
  id     INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
  fruit  VARCHAR(32),
  amount DECIMAL
);

INSERT INTO tblSales
VALUES 
(NULL, 'apple', 12.75), 
(NULL, 'orange', 1.89), 
(NULL, 'pear', 19.23),
(NULL, 'banana', 4.25), 
(NULL, 'cherry', 123.75), 
(NULL, 'plum', 23.15);
SELECT fruit, amount FROM tblSales ORDER BY amount DESC;

If we run this query it will result like
+--------+--------+
| fruit  | amount |
+--------+--------+
| cherry |    124 |
| plum   |     23 |
| pear   |     19 |
| apple  |     13 |
| banana |      4 |
| orange |      2 |
+--------+--------+


Now here is the query with ranking

SET @rank=0;
SELECT @rank:=@rank+1 AS rank, fruit, amount FROM tblSales
 ORDER BY amount DESC;

+------+--------+--------+
| rank | fruit  | amount |
+------+--------+--------+
|    1 | cherry |    124 |
|    2 | plum   |     23 |
|    3 | pear   |     19 |
|    4 | apple  |     13 |
|    5 | banana |      4 |
|    6 | orange |      2 |
+------+--------+--------+

Difference Between Primary Key and Unique Key


PRIMARY KEY UNIQUE KEY
NULL It doesn’t allow Null values.
Because of this we refer
PRIMARY KEY = UNIQUE KEY + Not Null CONSTRAINT
Allows Null value. But only one Null value.
INDEX By default it adds a clustered index By default it adds a UNIQUE non-clustered index
LIMIT A table can have only one PRIMARY KEY Column[s] A table can have more than one UNIQUE Key Column[s]
CREATE SYNTAX Below is the sample example for defining a single column as a PRIMARY KEY column while creating a table:CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer
(
Id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
FirstName VARCHAR(100),
LastName VARCHAR(100),
City VARCHAR(50)
)Below is the Sample example for defining multiple columns as PRIMARY KEY. It also shows how we can give name for the PRIMARY KEY:

CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer
(
Id INT NOT NULL,
FirstName VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
LastName VARCHAR(100),
City VARCHAR(50),
CONSTRAINT PK_CUSTOMER PRIMARY KEY(Id,FirstName)
)

Below is the sample example for defining a single column as a UNIQUE KEY column while creating a table:CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer
(
Id INT NOT NULL UNIQUE,
FirstName VARCHAR(100),
LastName VARCHAR(100),
City VARCHAR(50)
)Below is the Sample example for defining multiple columns as UNIQUE KEY. It also shows how we can give name for the UNIQUE KEY:

CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer
(
Id INT NOT NULL,
FirstName VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
LastName VARCHAR(100),
City VARCHAR(50),
CONSTRAINT UK_CUSTOMER UNIQUE(Id,FirstName)
)

ALTER SYNTAX Below is the Syntax for adding PRIMARY KEY CONSTRAINT on a column when the table is already created and doesn’t have any primary key:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer
ADD CONSTRAINT PK_CUSTOMER PRIMARY KEY (Id)
Below is the Syntax for adding UNIQUE KEY CONSTRAINT on a column when the table is already created:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer
ADD CONSTRAINT UK_CUSTOMER UNIQUE(Id)
DROP SYNTAX Below is the Syntax for dropping a PRIMARY KEY:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer
DROP CONSTRAINT PK_CUSTOMER
Below is the Syntax for dropping a UNIQUE KEY:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer
DROP CONSTRAINT UK_CUSTOMER
