password issue with Jul2015 Feature release of MonetDB suite
by Enzo 29 Aug '15

29 Aug '15

I do not seem to be able to log in R: the following was working before, but now it doesn’t. aconn <- dbConnect(MonetDB.R(), "monetdb://localhost:50000/ClevelandBaseModel", user= "monetdb", password="monetdb”) Error in .mapiAuthenticate(socket, dbname, user, password, language = language) : Authentication error: !InvalidCredentialsException:checkCredentials:invalid credentials for user ‘monetdb’ Has the password been changed??

issue granting administrator rights
by Enzo 28 Aug '15

28 Aug '15

I have successfully managed to configure multi-user access to my user defined schema. All the users are granted monetdb “rights with: GRANT monetdb TO user1 Once logging the new user has ability to SELECT / DROP / INSERT etc. in the user schema. Sadly at the time of executing the MonetDB.R command: tStatus <- dbWriteTable(conn, tPFile, dataDt,overwrite=TRUE, csvdump=TRUE) I’ve got: Unable to execute statement 'COPY OFFSET 2 INTO demand FROM '/Users/xxx/demand.csv' USIN...'. Server says '!COPY INTO: insufficient privileges: COPY INTO from file(s) requires database administrator rights, use 'COPY INTO "demand" FROM STDIN' instead' So clearly GRANT monetdb TO user1 is not enough to empower user1. I tried: GRANT monetdb to “user1" WITH ADMIN OPTION; But at this point after: SET SCHEMA cleveland; SET ROLE monetdb; I get error "Role (monetdb) missing” It does not seem correct to me: surely it should be possible to grant rights to a user at the same level of “monetdb”, including administrator rights?

Multiple MonetDB nodes behind HAProxy loadbalancer
by Dennis Pallett 20 Aug '15

20 Aug '15

Hi all, We're thinking about running multiple MonetDB servers with the same databases behind a single HAProxy loadbalancer (see attached diagram). Would this be a good idea? bad idea? Any experiences with this kind of setup? We are thinking about this route primarily so that we can bring a new dataset online during business hours without disrupting end-users who are running queries from our application. An additional benefit would be the ability to handle more load and enable horizontal scalability. Any insights would be much appreciated! Best regards, Dennis

Maximum number of tables
by Masood Mortazavi 15 Aug '15

15 Aug '15

Hi -- Is there a configured maximum number of tables supported by a MonetDB instance? Maximum number of columns in a table? What's the rough size of metadata per column at run-time? Thanks, - Masood
