PHP - Insert Data Into 100 Million Rows Without 500 Error?

The information is drawn in from a table into a form that the user will click submit and all the rows will be inputted into the table with their username association.

With this form, its only inputting the last row and not all of them. 

You're help is much appreciated!

Here is the form in the PHP area:

while($row=mysql_fetch_array($get_items_sql)){
   
              $name  =$row['item'];
              $date = ($row['expiration_date']);
              $exp_date = date('M d Y', strtotime($row['expiration_date']));
                    $content .= "";
               $content .="<table width=\"450\" border=\"0\"><tr><td width=\"200\"><span class=\"anotherfont\"><input name=\"item[]\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"$name\" id=\"item[]\">$name</span></td><td width=\"200\"><span class=\"greenfont\"><input name=\"expiration_date[]\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"$date\" id=\"expiration_date[]\">$exp_date</span><input name=\"username[]\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"$username\" id=\"username[]\"/>
</td></tr><br /></table>";
    $content .= "\n";
            }
            $content .= "</ul>\n";


Then below is part of the HTML Form with $content referenced:

<form action="add_select.php?source_id=<?php echo $coupon_source ?>" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="add_new" id="add_new">
<?php echo $content ?>


<input name="SUBMIT" type="submit" value="submit" /></form><br />


Then here is the section from the "add_select.php" file from the form:

include('connect.php');

foreach($_POST['item'] as $row=>$item)
{
$Item_name=$item;
$expiration_date=$_POST['expiration_date'][$row];
$username=$_POST['username'][$row];
}

foreach($_POST['item'] as $row=>$item)
{
$Item_name=mysql_real_escape_string($item);
$expiration_date=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['expiration_date'][$row]);
$username=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username'][$row]);
}


 
$sql2="INSERT INTO place (item, expiration_date, username) VALUES ('$Item_name', '$expiration_date', '$username')"; 



if (!mysql_query($sql2))

  {

  die('Error: ' . mysql_error());

  }else {
     
     
    header("location:insert_complete.php");
}
                 

Hi, I have an app that access a MySQL database via a php script.
I noticed that INSERT was returning error but the data was being recorded successfully.
I finally traced the problem to be related with the line 
echo $conn->affected_rows;   

For some reason when it is an SQL INSERT it returns -11 but as I said the INSERTS executes successfully.

The app requesting the service sends in sequence:

char* txtSQL[]={"INSERT INTO activity (mac,jd,date,time,area,type,value) VALUES ('a9c4952de6b4',2458454,'2018-12-01','10:22','Area0002','h',130)",
                            "INSERT INTO activity (mac,jd,date,time,area,type,value) VALUES ('a9c4952de6b4',2458454,'2018-12-01','10:22','Area0002','h',130)",
                            "INSERT INTO activity (mac,jd,date,time,area,type,value) VALUES ('a9c4952de6b4',2458454,'2018-12-01','10:22','Area0002','h',130)",
                            "INSERT INTO activity (mac,jd,date,time,area,type,value) VALUES ('a9c4952de6b4',2458454,'2018-12-01','10:22','Area0002','h',130)",
                            "UPDATE activity set value=333 where value=130",
                            "SELECT sum(value) from activity where mac='a9c4952de6b4'",
                            "DELETE from activity WHERE value=333"};

I set a monitor to check what was being returned and got:

query=INSERT INTO activity (mac,jd,date,time,area,type,value) VALUES ('a9c4952de6b4',2458454,'2018-12-01','10:22','Area0002','h',130)
HttpResponse:  -   httpResponseCode: -11

HttpResponse:  -   httpResponseCode: -11
query=INSERT INTO activity (mac,jd,date,time,area,type,value) VALUES ('a9c4952de6b4',2458454,'2018-12-01','10:22','Area0002','h',130)

HttpResponse:  -   httpResponseCode: -11
query=UPDATE activity set value=333 where value=130
HttpResponse: 4 *   httpResponseCode: 201   -------------------------------------->As can be seem the INSERTS above returned error but worked OK
query=SELECT sum(value) from activity where mac='a9c4952de6b4'
HttpResponse: 1379 *   httpResponseCode: 200
query=DELETE from activity WHERE value=333
HttpResponse: 4 *   httpResponseCode: 201

The  PHP script do ing the job i s as be low :

<?php
include('connection.php');

//these are just in case setting headers forcing it to always expire

Hello, is it possible to insert somehow information from textarea to mysql?
For example i have 3 lines in text area:
John Tacker is a bad guy
Tom Tacker has a big nose
Ted Tacker is the same person as John Tacker
and i want to insert them in table's different rows

Hi again all,

Why does the foreach loop im doing, put the array values from collection, into seperate table rows rather than 1 row per whole array?



    <?php
        class registration{                    
            public $fields = array("username", "email", "password");
            public $data = array();
            public $table = "users";
            public $dateTime = "";
            public $datePos = 0;
            public $dateEntryName = "date";
            public $connection;
            
            function timeStamp(){
                return($this->dateTime = date("Y-m-d H:i:s"));
            }
            
            function insertRow($collection){      
                    //HERE
                    foreach($this->fields as $row => $value){
                        mysql_query("INSERT INTO $this->table ($value)
                        VALUES ('$collection[$row]')");
                    }
                    
                    mysql_close($this->connection->connectData);
            }
            
            function validateFields(){            

                $this->connection = new connection();
                $this->connection->connect(); 
                        
                foreach($this->fields as $key => $value){
                    array_push($this->data, $_POST[$this->fields[$key]]);
                }
                $this->dateTime = $this->timeStamp();
                array_unshift($this->data, $this->dateTime);                
                array_unshift($this->fields, $this->dateEntryName);   
                
                foreach($this->data as $value){
                    echo "$value";
                }
                
                $this->insertRow($this->data);
            }
        }
        
        $registration = new registration();
        $registration->validateFields();
    ?>




I end up with 3 rows

row 1: username
row 2: email
row 3 : password

rather than row 1:username email password.

Dear All,

  I have attached here with a schema, of MySql DB format i am refering to for the topic i need help on.

I want to know what is the best way to achieve this problem / task.

I have a profile table, and a category table, and a table to map profiles to category.
Which allows me to define/add into the category_profile_mapping table, profile ids against a category id.

Each category can have anywhere between 2 to 1,00,000 profiles mapped to it.

I have another table called sms_out. hence on the site, when i select a category and submit the form value with message, i want to know what is the best way to populate sms_out with MSISDN from the table "Profile" and the message from the form.
The list of MSISDN will be based on the category id selected, hence the profile id's will be available in the category_profile_mapping table.

I am bad at explaining the problem, however incase you folks need more info do let me know. i shall be glad to provide the same to .. all of you guys who are willing to help me

PS:  I am asking this question, cuz i want to knw the best solution to achieve this, when there is entries in millions to be done at one form submit.

Hi..

Sorry, if I need to repost my problem in while loop. cause until now I can't resolve my problem in saving all data from while loop.

I have this code StockRequisition.php where FORM was displayed.

Hello,   This is confusing me! - this code is finding 2 rows of data ($nrows is 2), but I'm only getting 1 row of data returned. On the second while loop I'm getting the following error message:   Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/website.com/test.php on line 26

				$query ="SELECT * FROM Accounts WHERE (jaaLatitude = '' OR jaaLongitude = '')";	
				$result=mysql_query($query)  
					or die ("Connection to database table failed."  . mysql_error());
				$nrows=mysql_num_rows($result);

				$i = 0;
				if ($nrows > 0)
				{	
					while($record = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_BOTH))
						{	
							$jaaIndex = $record[jaaIndex];	
							$jaaEmail = $record[jaaEmail];
							$jaaLocation = $record[jaaLocation];
							$jaaLongitude = $record[jaaLongitude];
							$jaaLatitude = $record[jaaLatitude];

                                                        echo "<br>test jaaEmail is $jaaEmail<br>";

                                                        $i = $i + 1; 
                                                 }
                                 }

As I say the first while loop is working, so I don't see what can be wrong with the qurery (it's not failing).   Thanks for your help,   S

Hi,
I am trying to output my data call rows, alongside each other till two, then break and start a new row. and so on and so on.
this is not really a example question, i think its more a request information question and example question.

How would i go about $outputting the rows alongside each other?

i have tried:

$output_rows['MYDATA']='then in here i have had a complete table with all the css and styling and information entered'; //but i couldn't get it alongside each other on the html page?

then i tried outputting the information and had the tables and css setup on the .html page, but that gave me duplicate entries alongside each other, as no i was entering data from the {MYDATA}.. Twice..

I am really stuck!
if any one can assist Great.   

Hey guys,

I got another one that i could use some help on.  I have a input form that utilizes a javascript that adds additional rows to my table.  here is a look at what i got.

Code: [Select]
<script type="text/javascript">
function insertRow()
{
    var x = document.getElementById('results_table').insertRow(-1);
    var a = x.insertCell(0);
    var b = x.insertCell(1);
    var c = x.insertCell(2);
    var d = x.insertCell(3);
    var e = x.insertCell(4);

    a.innerHTML="<input type=\"text\" name=\"id\">";
    b.innerHTML="<input type=\"text\" name=\"place\">";
    c.innerHTML="<input type=\"text\" name=\"username\">";
    d.innerHTML="<input type=\"text\" name=\"earnings\">";
    e.innerHTML="<input type=\"button\" value=\"delete\" onClick=\"deleteRow(this)\">";
}

function deleteRow(r)
{
    var i=r.parentNode.parentNode.rowIndex;
    document.getElementById('results_table').deleteRow(i);
}

</script>
this is my code stored in the header of my page.  basically just a button to add a new row and a button in each row to delete rows if needed.

here is a look at my html table, pretty basic...

Code: [Select]
<table id="results_table">

            <th>Event ID</th><th>Place</th><th>Username</th><th>Earnings</th>

            <tr>
                <td><input type="text" name="id"></td><td><input type="text" name="place"></td><td><input type="text" name="username"></td><td><input type="text" name="earnings"></td><td><input type="button" value="delete" onClick="deleteRow(this)"</td>
            </tr>

        </table>
Now what I am hoping to acheive is once i submit all of these rows to the database i will insert each of these rows into their own row in the database.  is this doable?

the structure of my database is:

ResultID (Primary Key)
Place
Earnings
UserID (Foreign Key)
EventID (Foreign Key)


now i think the biggest problem i'm having with submitting data to the database is that in the original HTML form I am typing in the actual username and not the userID. 

so when it comes to processing I need to do a switch of these two things before I run my query.  Should something like this work?

Code: [Select]

$username = $_POST['username'];

$userID = "SELECT userID FROM users WHERE username="$username";

$query = mysql_query($userID);



also i've never tried to submit multiple entries at a time.  maybe i have to create an array somehow in order to capture each rows data.  any thoughts?

as always thanks for the help.

i'm trying to echo out the results from a query onto a page, but rather than having them echo out as rows in a table, i want them to be displayed in columns, i.e. first column would have the first 10 results and the second column would have the next to. Any ideas on how i could do this?

at the moment i'm using this code to display my results

$read=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM entry WHERE category_id=".$id." ORDER BY entry_title") or die("query failed".mysql_error());
$result=mysql_num_rows($read);
for($j = 0; $j < $result; $j++) { 
   

$row = mysql_fetch_array($read);

echo "<a href=article.php?id=".$row['entry_id']. ">".$row['entry_title']."</a><br />";
}

but this just displays it as a list down the middle

thanks

Here is a link to the website I am designing. http://173.167.65.189/singleton/
the username and password is ksingleton
at the bottom where the calendar is the query is searching for scheduled events, i am only posting the company_id right now,  the problem I am having is I want a scheduled event that continues through the week to stay in line with the one before.  But if the schedule before ended and a new one continues it moves the next date company_id up.  How can i align the table rows or create an empty table row on all other days if there was a schedule before.  here is the code for the calendar.

Hi,

I'm having a bit of trouble with returning data from the database. It brings back the images etc... correctly, but I need to be able to limit it to two images per, line and then to carriage return. Or using CSS to position them with the correct padding etc... I'm very tired and can't seem to figure it out, which is starting to frustrate me.

To see what I mean, go to www.bikescarsandvans.co.uk/test.php and select the drop down menu.

And see coding for particular section.

Any help will be much appericated, I know a good sleep would probaly help but don't have time for that right now 

Code: [Select]
 
  print "

Ok so I am pretty good with mysql and performing queries to get the data that I need. However, I have a question for any of you gurus out there that may be able to help me with an issue that I always run into with certain types of queries. Say I have 2 tables like this:

Galleries
id name 1 My Photos
Gallery Photos
id gallery_id photo 1 1 photo1.jpg 2 1 photo2.jpg 3 1 photo3.jpg
Now usually when I pull this info from the database I have to do 2 separate queries in order to get the data and then link them so I would do something like.


<?php
//make the gallery query
$query = "SELECT * FROM galleries";
$results = mysql_query($query);

//setup an array for the galleries data
$gallery_data = array();

//loop through the galleries
for($i=0;$i<mysql_num_rows($results);$i++){
//add the gallery info to the gallery data array
$gallery_data[$i] = mysql_fetch_array($results);

//make the photos query with the gallery id
$photo_query = "SELECT * FROM gallery_photos WHERE gallery_id='".mysql_real_escape_string($gallery_data[$i]['id'])."'";
$photo_results = mysql_query($photo_query);

//setup the photos array
$photo_data = array();

//put the photos in the array
for($n=0;$n<mysql_num_rows($photo_results);$n++){
$photo_data[$n] = mysql_fetch_array($photo_results);
}

//add the photos to the gallery array
$gallery_data[$i]['photos'] = $photo_data;
}

//now to display it is like this
if(is_array($gallery_data)){
foreach($gallery_data as $gallery){
echo $gallery['name'];

//show the photos
if(is_array($gallery['photos'])){
foreach($gallery['photos'] as $photo){
echo $photo['photo'];
}
}
}
}
?>


So my question is there a way to get all of this data at one time. I know how to do multiple queries in one and to do joins but they can only return one row as far as I know of. The only other way that I know how to do this is by ordering them by name and selecting them directly from the photos table and then just getting the gallery name like this:


SELECT *,(SELECT name FROM galleries WHERE id=gallery_photos.id) AS gallery_name FROM gallery_photos ORDER BY gallery_id


Then I could just do one loop and see if the name has changed and if so to output the new name. But I would like to know if there is a way to get a second set of results as an array from a query so I could just select the galleries and photos all in one query. Any help is appreciated.
