Ruby+MySQL on Ubuntu

This post goes through installing and configuring Ruby and Ruby on Rails for MySQL. The first step requires updating the Ubuntu OS:

sudo apt-get update

Interestingly, I found that the man-db service had inadvertently stopped. It raised the following error:

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. 

You run this command to find the problem with the dpkg utility:

sudo dpkg --configure -a

It returned:

Setting up man-db (2.10.2-1) ...
Updating database of manual pages ...
man-db.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it.

The following command started the man-db service:

sudo systemctl start man-db.service

Next, you install the prerequisite packages with this command:

sudo apt-get install -y git-core zlib1g-dev build-essential libssl-dev libreadline-dev libyaml-dev …

Ubuntu, Perl & MySQL

Configuring Perl to work with MySQL is straight forward. While Perl is installed generally, you may need to install the libdbd-mysql-perl library.

You install it as a sudoer user with this syntax:

sudo apt install -y libdbd-mysql-perl

MySQL RegExp Default

We had an interesting set of questions regarding the REGEXP comparison operator in MySQL today in both sections of Database Design and Development. They wanted to know the default behavior.

For example, we built a little movie table so that we didn’t change their default sakila example database. The movie table was like this:

CREATE TABLE movie
( movie_id     int unsigned primary key auto_increment
, movie_title  varchar(60)) auto_increment=1001;

Then, I inserted the following rows:

INSERT INTO movie 
( movie_title )
VALUES
 ('The King and I')
,('I')
,('The I Inside')
,('I am Legend');

Querying all results with this query:

SELECT * FROM movie;

It returns the following results:

+----------+----------------+
| movie_id | movie_title    |
+----------+----------------+
|     1001 | The King and I |
|     1002 | I              |
|     1003 | The I Inside   |
|     1004 | I am Legend …

SSH Tunneling in Connector/Net

A couple of years ago, MySQL Connector/Net shipped with a feature that allowed the connector to automatically create a SSH “tunnel” to a remote MySQL host. This could be useful in that it allows a remote MySQL host to only run with a secure port and a local client could connect to a local port to access it. We wrote about that feature in a blog post you can read here.

Today we are announcing that starting with the 8.0.24 release we are removing that feature. We decided to take this action for a few reasons. First, very few people were actually using the feature. Including a security sensitive feature that few people use is something we always want to examine. In addition, we were starting to encounter some friction between the encryption methods and ciphers that library supported and those that we wanted to support …
