Connect to MySQL Using MySQL Client You can use the MySQL command-line client to connect to MySQL.

Install MySQL Client The MySQL Community Server includes the MySQL client, if you have not installed the MySQL Community Server, download and install

Add mysql location to the PATH Environment Variable On Windows Open System Properties -> Environment Variables -> System variables Select Path, click Edit, then New, add the line C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin Click Close Connect to MySQL instance Start the mysql client:

mysql -h <db_endpoint> -P <db_port> -u <db_user> -p or

mysql --host=<db_endpoint> --port=<db_port> --user=<db_user> -p For example, if you want to connect to MySQL database instance with following info:

db_endpoint=msba2024-serverless-mysql-production.cluster-cqxikovybdnm.us-east-2.rds.amazonaws.com db_port=3306 db_user=myusername db_password=mydbpass mysql -h msba2024-serverless-mysql-production.cluster-cqxikovybdnm.us-east-2.rds.amazonaws.com -P 3306 -p -u myusername
or

mysql --host=msba2024-serverless-mysql-production.cluster-cqxikovybdnm.us-east-2.rds.amazonaws.com --port=3306 -p --user=myusername enter your password:

Enter password: ****************** then mysql prompt appears

mysql> At mysql prompt, you can

Get the List of Commands

mysql> help Show List of Schemas

mysql> show databases; Change to the database you want to work on

For example, you want to work on MSBA_Team1 database

mysql> use MSBA_Team1; List tables in the current database (or schema)

mysql> show tables; Get a table's definition

mysql> desc crsp_daily_data; Run the query

mysql> select count(*) from crsp_daily_data;

Load CSV File Data into MySQL Table Enable LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE in MySQL Workbench Launch MySQL Workbench.

Click Database on the top menu.

Select Manage Connections…, a Manage Server Connections popup opens.

Select the connection at the left you want to load data, for example, msba2024-serverless-mysql-production

wb20

Click Advanced button, add OPT_LOCAL_INFILE=1 in Others section

wb21

Click Test Connection button.

Click OK if it is successful, then Close

SET Environment Varilable: local_infile If your MySQL connection is localhost or 127.0. 0.1 , run following command in the Workbench SQL editor:

SET GLOBAL local_infile=1; If your connection is remote MySQL on AWS, this step can be skipped.

Load CSV File Data into MySQL Table Using Workbench Create a table, for example, create a table crsp_daily_data in BOOTCAMP_DEV schema , run following SQL statements in Workbench SQL Editor, replace BOOTCAMP_DEV with your schema:

use BOOTCAMP_DEV; CREATE TABLE crsp_daily_data ( premno int NOT NULL, caldt date NOT NULL, price double, volume int, daily_return double, shrsout int ); wb22

Load CSV file, for example, load crsp_daily_data.csv data into table crsp_daily_data, run following SQL statements in Workbench SQL Editor, replace BOOTCAMP_DEV with your schema:

use BOOTCAMP_DEV; LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:/Users/PGU6/Downloads/data/crsp_daily_data.csv' INTO TABLE crsp_daily_data FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' IGNORE 1 ROWS; You can also combine schema with table, replace BOOTCAMP_DEV with your schema:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:/Users/PGU6/Downloads/data/crsp_daily_data.csv' INTO TABLE BOOTCAMP_DEV.crsp_daily_data FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' IGNORE 1 ROWS; The path of csv file can be written as:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:\Users\PGU6\Downloads\data\crsp_daily_data.csv' INTO TABLE BOOTCAMP_DEV.crsp_daily_data FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' IGNORE 1 ROWS; Make sure replace BOOTCAMP_DEV with your schema

Make sure put LOCAL before INFILE in LOAD DATA INFILE, the correct one is: LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE. If you forget LOCAL, you would get errors

Make sure replace the data file full path with yours at your laptop

MySQL Scripts

Following SQL scripts are used in Tech Preview bootcamp to create tables, join tables and load CSV files into database tables

Create CRSP Header Table

USE MSBA_DB1;
CREATE TABLE crsp_header(
   permno INT NOT NULL UNIQUE,
   permco INT NOT NULL,
   ticker VARCHAR(5),
   comnam VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL,
   naics INT,
   prim_exch VARCHAR(1),
   cusip VARCHAR(8),
   siccd INT,
   begdat DATE,
   enddat DATE,
      PRIMARY KEY ( permno )
);

Note replace MSBA_DB1 with the schema that you have access, add your initial in the table name, for example, replace crsp_header with crsp_header_ag

Create CRSP Daily Data Table

USE MSBA_DB1;
CREATE TABLE crsp_daily_data(
   permno INT NOT NULL,
   caldt DATE,
   price DOUBLE,
   volume INT,
   daily_return DOUBLE,
   shrsout INT,
      PRIMARY KEY ( permno, caldt )
);

Note replace MSBA_DB1 with the schema that you have access, add your initial in the table name, for example, replace crsp_daily_data with crsp_daily_data_ag

Simple Join CRSP Header and Daily Tables

USE MSBA_DB1;
SELECT comnam, crsp_header.permno, sum(daily_return), exp(sum(log(daily_return+1)))-1 as cum_daily_return, count(daily_return)
 from crsp_header
  inner join crsp_daily_data
     on crsp_header.permno=crsp_daily_data.permno
     and caldt between '2022-01-01' and '2022-12-31'
 group by crsp_header.permno;

Note replace MSBA_DB1 with the schema that you have access, add your initial in the table name, for example, replace crsp_header with crsp_header_ag, replace crsp_daily_data with crsp_daily_data_ag

Load CRSP Header Table from CSV File

USE MSBA_DB1;
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:/Users/rharr08/Downloads/fpdqyfoyhasok69f.csv' 
    INTO TABLE crsp_header
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' 
    LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
    IGNORE 1 ROWS;

Note replace MSBA_DB1 with the schema that you have access, add your initial in the table name, for example, replace crsp_header with crsp_header_ag

Load CRSP Daily Data Table from CSV File

USE MSBA_DB1;
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:/users/rharr08/downloads/socrbvf3sdlcbqcs.csv' 
    INTO TABLE `crsp_daily_data`
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' 
    LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
    IGNORE 1 ROWS;

Note replace MSBA_DB1 with the schema that you have access, add your initial in the table name, for example, replace crsp_daily_data with crsp_daily_data_ag

Troubleshooting

MySQL Case sensitivity - Some are case-sensitive and some are not
Access error when loading csv file into table
- make sure OPT_LOCAL_INFILE=1 is set in Workbench, see the docs
- make sure csv file full path is correct
- On Windows, replace window path seperator \ with / in the csv file path, for example, replace C:\users\rharr08\downloads\socrbvf3sdlcbqcs.csv with C:/users/rharr08/downloads/socrbvf3sdlcbqcs.csv

MySQL Troubleshooting

Load Data into a Table Access Denied

Problem

When loading data into a table, you might get Error:

Error Code: 1290. The MySQL server is running with the --secure-file-priv option so it cannot execute this statement.
so it cannot execute this statement.

When you have this error, first, you need to check if you have permission to access the schema and table. If you do, execute the following line together with your LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE ... statements

use <my-scheme>;

where is the schema you wish to load data into.

for example:

use STUDENT_AAG332;

where STUDENT_AAG332 is the schema you want to load data into.

If you still get errors, try following workaround.

Workaround

In the Workbench, add following line to your instance connection's Others box under Advanced settings, see How to Load csv file into a table using MySQL Workbench
```
OPT_LOCAL_INFILE=1
```
Quit Workbench if Test connection is successfully, then re-launch Workbench.
If your MySQL connection is localhost or 127.0. 0.1 , run following command in the Workbench SQL editor:
```
SET GLOBAL local_infile=1;
```

In the same SQL Editor, load data into table:

Sample 1, fields seperated by tab in csv file

 LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:\\Users\\PGU6\\Documents\\GBS\\TechBootCamp\\MSBA2024\\etsy_shops_data.tsv'
 INTO TABLE MY_SCHEMA.shops
 FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t'
 ENCLOSED  BY '"';

Sample 2, fields seperated by comma in csv file

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE  'c:/tmp/discounts.csv'
INTO TABLE MY_SCHEMA.discounts
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
IGNORE 1 ROWS;

Make sure replace MY_SCHEMA with your schema
Make sure put LOCAL before INFILE in LOAD DATA INFILE, the correct one is: LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE. If you forget LOCAL, you would get errors
Make sure replace the data file full path with yours at your laptop

Query Timeout Lost connection to MySQL server

Problem

Error Code: 2013. Lost connection to MySQL server during query

Client-Side Solution

You can increase your MySQL client's timeout values, for instance 1 hour, in MySQL Workbench by editing the SQL Editor preferences:

Select Edit -> Preferences -> SQL Editor
Look for the MySQL Session section
In DBMS connection read timeout interval(in seconds), change the value to 3600
In DBMS connection timeout interval(in seconds) field, change value to 120.
Click OK
Quit or close Workbench
Re launch Workbench
