Key: TEIID-379
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/TEIID-379
Project: Teiid
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JDBC Connector
Affects Versions: 6.0.0
Environment: Teiid trunk as of 2/23/09 at 3:22 PM eastern
Reporter: Greg Haber
Assignee: Steven Hawkins
Priority: Optional
Fix For: 6.0.0
Original Estimate: 1 hour
Remaining Estimate: 1 hour
I noticed with the legacy MetaMatrix product that our MySQL connector seems to assume
that it is connecting to a MySQL database running in "ANSI" SQL mode
For instance, we list in the capabilities class that MySQL supports || as a string
concatenation parameter, but it actually only supports it if the SQL mode
"PIPES_AS_CONCAT" is set - and this is one of the individual modes that gets set
when you set the "ANSI" meta-mode (see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-sql-mode.html#sqlmode_ansi for details).
This is a bad assumption as it is not the default setting for MySQL (the default sql-mode
setting is "", or no special modes). I took a look at some of the databases
used at Red Hat for testing MetaMatrix for MySQL (specifically, slntds03) and noticed that
they have sql-mode set to ANSI on the server side.
I took a look at the current Teiid trunk code and it is the same as the legacy MetaMatrix
code in this regard, so Teiid has the same issue.
Two possible resolutions are:
-Rework the connector to remove any assumptions that sql-mode=ANSI
-set sql-mode to ANSI when establishing new connections to MySQL (this can be done by
sending the SQL statement 'set SESSION sql-mode="ANSI" after establishing a
connection).
Unfortunately there does not appear to be a way to set this mode via a JDBC connection
property - you need to send the "set" command after establishing the connection.
