I've been using MySQL for a while for fairly light database development on
my XP machine. Currently, I am just starting a new project and have
experienced some big problems with MySQL today both on my office machine and
at home where running a particular query on a database freezes both the
database client, no matter what I am using, and pretty much kills my entire
machine.
The query is something like this:
SELECT * From job, company, division WHERE job.DIVISIONNUMBER =
division.DIVISIONNUMBER AND job.Active=1 AND division.CompanyNumber =
company.CompanyNumber AND job.ENTRYDATE BETWEEN '2000-3-13' AND '2005-2-23'
ORDER BY job.EntryDate DESC
Most queries seem fine, but this one in particular seems to kill my machine.
I was running some 3.xx version, but just upgraded to 4.1 and the problem
persists. Could someone clue me in as to why this might be?
Regards,
Jonathan
