Hello,
I have 2 tables:
In one I log the user name of a web site user like this:
Name Access time
"makost0001" " 2007-04-19 15:09:19"
"makost0001" " 2007-04-19 15:09:19"
In the other I have the user name his group and the expiry date of his
account.
Name Group Expiry date
"makost0001" "book" "2013-04-05 09:41:25.357677"
When the user accesses the web site for the first time I need to change the
expiry date
to < today > + 3 years.
Problem is I need to do this on a regular basis once a day to avoid table
locks. And also how do I tell the program to find the earliest access time
of a user? Like shown above there a multiple
entries for the same time & user because of the multiple requests. :o(
Should I have a field in the first table like <ignore this entry forever>
when an expiry date is already set?
I'm pretty new to db programming and especially to PostgreSQL. Can somebody
please help?
Cheers,
Pete
