Hey Anthony,

I think he’s being a little confused here...

What tony is refering to, is stacked statements   “select * from foo; update bar set foo=bar; some other statement;”

Allowing stacked statements in 1 call over ODBC is bad mojo that’s exactly host most sql injections work in the first place

“select * from users where username = ‘$USERNAME’” ... Replace $USERNAME with the next line

‘;  UPDATE users set password=NEWPASSWORD where username = ‘admin’; --

Boom sql injection... Now there are other ways to protect against this like properly escaping input from 3rd parties going into your sql statements but it still happens all the time...

This is one of the main reasons I use prepared statements on Postgresql cause it stops this sort of behavior cold in its tracks... You should still properly escape inputs but the extra layer is worth it

Transactions are by default supported by mysql, the transactions are driven by sql statements themselves. 

Your statement is either incorrect or I interpret it wrong.

SIPP works fine for this... However keep in mind some  of their default scenario files arent exactly the best in the world and can in  many situations leave a bit to be desired... Check the wiki I think there is  more info on this on there

on this subject,
is SIPp can be used to test to  reproduce hundreds calls ?

BTW I know it's a contradiction  to tell you to consider older  ODBC and newer FS but I wrote FS so I  can attest to its stability especially  the ODBC code in the core.

Let's recap
 

 
You  have 4 moving parts, you have various versions of all 4 to choose   from and even different implementations of 3 of the  4.
 

ODBC LIB
ODBC  DRIVER
 
DATABASE
 
FS
 

 
You  must choose a stable combination of all 4 which may require   specific configuration of each component as  well.
 

 
My only issue is FUD, I do not want  people to advertise that FS does  not work on ODBC under load when  the whole story is FS does not work under  load when you use  fooODBC with barDRIVER with basBASE database server  configured a  particular way.
 

 
It should never crash, if it  does, its a bug in something.  I can  speak for FS that there  is no bug there.  The other 3 are  variables.  
 
Remember this next time there is a discussion about using  system libs  and why we build our own depends.  The one thing  we use system libs  for, ODBC, is a huge  PITA.........
 

 
Things to  remember:
 

 
1) try the Threading=0 in the  odbcinst.ini, this is a serious problem  and has been made the  default in latest versions.
 
2) If you must use Mysql,  enable transactions and make sure your  odbc.ini is referencing the  threadsafe version of the lib  
 
     libmyodbc3_r.so <-- note  _r
 
3) Try various combos of drivers and odbc libs, many  time newer is not  better, stable versions lie in the  past.
 
4) build the drivers and odbc yourself or get the  debug symbols so you  can get a backtrace, you could be finding a  bug for them.......
 
5) Find a test to reproduce your  problem so you can try different  database engines and driver  combos.
 
6) Make sure you are on latest FS git so you know  you have a stable   copy.
 

 

 
Anyway, this is a  pain, that's why ppl pay you to do it.
 
Discuss this all you  want here, just minimize any FUD to scare away  people who want to  use  it.

Do not agree. Issues happening under extreme  cases like  high load with
some specific conditions are hard  to reproduce, sharing  the
information in this case is a lot  more efficient, for all.
