Hi I just started with RMySQL. I have a database with roughly 12 millions rows/records and 8 columns/fields. From all 12 millions of records I want to import 3 fields only. The fields are specified as:id int(11), group char(15), measurement float(4,2). Why does this take > 1G RAM? I run R on suse linux, with 1G RAM and with the code below it even fills the whole 1G of swap. I just

Hello, The code below works fine up until I try to use the "IN" statement in the last line. The proper SQL format is: SELECT * FROM this_table WHERE this_column IN (1,2,3,4,5) But, I think I may be getting something like: SELECT * FROM this_table WHERE this_column IN c(1,2,3,4,5) Which makes no sense in SQL. I think it may be just a matter of string massaging, but I'm not

Hi All, I've finally gotten around to database access using R. I'm happily extracting rows from a MySQL database using RMySQL, but am having problems appending rows to an existing table. What I *want* to do is to append rows to the table, allowing the database to automatically generate primary key values. I've only managed to add rows by using dbWriteTable( con,

Hi, I have a question reading using RMySQL trying to load one R vector into a table column. To be more specifically, the table is there populated. Now I add a new column and want to populate this. Can some colleagues on this list teach me how to do this? I know how to write one R object/table into MYSQL table using dbWriteTable. But in this situation, I just want to do one column. Thanks

Hi, I am trying to write a RMySQL sql script inside R such that part of the SQL would be R list or vector. For example, I want to select * from Atable where ID would equal to a members of R list or vector of "1, 2, 3". Here the ID list was generated inside R and then try to feed to mysql to call to get additional data sets. Can someone on the list help? Thanks. -- Waverley @ Palo

Greetings all, I am running R 2.5.1, RMySQL 0.6 , and DBI 0.2-3 on Windows XP Like others, I am having trouble with NA/Null value conversions between R and a MySQL database via DBI, but I could not find my exact problem in the archives. Most of the time NA values in R get transferred correctly to the database and back again, unless (apparently) if they are in the last column of the table being

Dear Rusers, I am trying to feed my database with data from a file. But since my file (2010101000.txt) there`s no headers I am facing problem because the result data.frame is not separated my columns. How could I set variables names for each columns in *dbWriteTable*? I have tried the command below but I don`t know how to fill the *field.type*option. dbWriteTable(con, "b20101010",

Getting the basic stuff to work is trivially simple. I can connect, and, for example, get everything in any given table. What I have yet to find is how to deal with parameterized queries or how to do a simple insert (but not of a value known at the time the script is written - I ultimately want to put my script into a scheduled task, so the analysis can be repeated on updated data either daily

I am running a simple SQL SELECT statement that involvs 50k + data points using R and the RJDBC interface. I am facing very slow response times in both the RGUI and the R console. When running this SQL statement directly in a SQL client I have processing times that are a lot lot faster (which means that the SQL statement itself is not the problem). Did any of you compare RJDBC vs RMySQL or is
