Hello!

I am not an admin of my database, but I care of this database.
I have a web page which inserts records into the mysql database about history of
just viewed banners.
I have written a script which let my page display banners in order. Every
reloading web page should make different banner display. That`s why I store
history of every banner of every section and I display banner which were viewed
the oldest time ago.
I don`t know why my mysql database sometimes don`t insert data into the database
and that`s why my web page shows every time the same banner. If I leave my
database for a few minutes and then reload the page, there are records added
into the database.

In the past I took care of MS Access databases and there was something as
compacting. What should I do make my mysql database response quicker? How can I
compact my database and should I do this during working hours when many people
use my web page? Is it needed to do it i.e. at night where fewer people look
into my web page?

Please me, I really apprieciete your efforts.
Thank you
Marcin

No I am testing the statements I am using to insert data into the database.

I mean in your code, to you check the return from the statements used
to update the database? Then you will see if there was a problem with
the update!

I have such code. I have made a mistake, I make update and insert, but I am
interested in the table banner_view_history,
where I store data about banners` views. My function returns nothing. I do
"OPTIMIZE TABLE banner_view_history" and
"OPTIMIZE TABLE banner_items" and I think that problem disappeared. But I am
not sure for 100%.

function UpdateBannerCount($id) {
$this->_clearDBError();
if(!$this->_connect()) {
return false;
}
$sql = "SELECT id_banner_locations FROM
".$this->dbconfig["prefix"]."banner_items WHERE id_banner_items=".$id;

$resultat = @mysql_query($sql);
$assoc = @mysql_fetch_assoc($resultat);

$this->query = "UPDATE ".$this->dbconfig["prefix"]."banner_items bi SET
banner_view_count = banner_view_count+1 WHERE id_banner_items=".$id;
$this->result = @mysql_query($this->query);

$data = array(
"referer" => isset($_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"])?$_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]:"",
"useragent" =>
isset($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])?$_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]:"",
"_name"
=>(isset($_['test_'])?$_['test_']:$_SESSION["test__session"]),
"view_date" => date("Y-m-d H:i:s"),
"id_banner_locations"=>$assoc["id_banner_locations"],
"id_banner_items" => $id
);
$this->addElement($this->dbconfig["prefix"]."banner_view_history", $data);

}

What do you mean "my function returns nothing"?

I cannot see anywhere in this code where you check for the success of
any of your database updates or an error messages returned.

What do you mean "my function returns nothing"?

I cannot see anywhere in this code where you check for the success of
any of your database updates or an error messages returned.

-----------------------------------
I mean that I don`t have such code

function name_function
{
//operations on database
.....
return $result;
}

by writing "my function returns nothing".

I don`t want to return anything because I use javascript SWFObject class to
display flash banners and I call URL i.e. banner.php?id=22.
banner.php file contains two things:
1) the above function update and insert into the database - to increase the
number of banner (id=22) views
and add visit trace into the banner_view_history table.
2) return needed data about the flash banner to make it display on the page

<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject("banner.php?id=22", "fl_top22_f", "770", "100",
"7", "#ffffff");
so.addVariable("quality", "high");
so.addVariable("clickTag", "bannerclick.php%3Fid%3D22");
so.write("fl_top"+22);
// ]]>
</script>

So write any errors to a log file. Then you can see what's happening.
You don't have to output them to the browser.

OK but what about the speed of inserts into database. I do not think that`s
the problem of
errors while inserting or updating the data, because data during every
reloading the page
are the same and the only difference is that view_date is changing.

You are guessing that "speed" is the problem. You have no evidence as
to what the problem is. Outputting the results of your update
operations gives you evidence of what is happening.
