## Core Tables Cheat Sheet
### Unified Machines Table (Phase 2 Schema)
```sql
-- ALL PCs, Equipment, and Network Devices are in one table
machines (machineid, hostname, serialnumber, alias, machinenumber,
machinetypeid, pctypeid, modelnumberid, osid, printerid,
loggedinuser, machinenotes, isactive, maptop, mapleft, lastupdated)
-- Identify record type:
-- PCs: pctypeid IS NOT NULL (machinetypeid 33-35)
-- Equipment: pctypeid IS NULL AND machinetypeid < 16
-- Network Devices: machinetypeid IN (16,17,18,19,20)
```
### PC-Related Tables
```sql
-- PC Types
pctype (pctypeid, typename)
-- Values: Standard, Engineer, Shopfloor, CMM, Wax Trace, etc.
-- Communication Config (serial ports for equipment)
commconfig (configid, machineid, configtype, portid, baud, databits, parity, ipaddress)
-- DNC Config
dncconfig (dncid, machineid, site, cnc, ncif, dualpath_enabled, path1_name, path2_name)
-- PC-to-Equipment Relationships
machinerelationships (relationshipid, machineid, related_machineid, relationshiptypeid)
-- relationshiptypeid 3 = "Controls" (PC controls equipment)
```
### Network & Communications
```sql
-- All network interfaces
communications (comid, machineid, comstypeid, address, macaddress,
subnetmask, defaultgateway, interfacename, isprimary, isactive)
-- comstypeid 1 = Network Interface
-- NOTE: Column is 'address' not 'ipaddress'
-- Subnets
subnets (subnetid, address, subnet, vlan, gateway, subnettypeid)
```
### Equipment & Machine Types
```sql
-- Machine Types (machinetypeid ranges)
machinetypes (machinetypeid, machinetype)
-- 1-15: Equipment (Vertical Lathe, Mill, CMM, etc.)
-- 16-20: Network Devices (16=AP, 17=IDF, 18=Camera, 19=Switch, 20=Server)
-- 33-35: PC Types (Desktop, Laptop, Workstation)
-- Installed Apps on Equipment
installedapps (machineid, applicationid)
```
### Applications & KB
```sql
-- Applications
applications (applicationid, applicationname, appdescription, supportteamid)
-- Knowledge Base
knowledgebase (linkid, shortdescription, keywords, applicationid, linkurl, clicks)
```
### Infrastructure
```sql
-- Printers (separate table, not in machines)
printers (printerid, printercsfname, modelid, serialnumber, ipaddress, fqdn, isactive)
-- NOTE: Printers use 'ipaddress' (unlike communications which uses 'address')
-- Notifications
notifications (notificationid, notification, starttime, endtime, isactive, notificationtypeid)
-- Warranties
warranties (warrantyid, machineid, enddate, servicelevel, status, daysremaining)
```
### Reference Data
```sql
-- Core reference tables
models (modelnumberid, modelnumber, vendorid)
vendors (vendorid, vendor)
operatingsystems (osid, osname)
supportteams (supportteamid, supportteam)
relationshiptypes (relationshiptypeid, relationshiptype)
-- Additional lookup tables
machinestatus (machinestatusid, machinestatus) -- TBD, In Use, Returned, etc.
notificationtypes (notificationtypeid, typename) -- Awareness, Change, Incident
comstypes (comstypeid, typename) -- IP, Serial, Network_Interface
subnettypes (subnettypeid, subnettypename) -- Subnet type classifications
topics (topicid, topic) -- KB topic categories
appowners (appownerid, appowner) -- Application ownership
appversions (appversionid, applicationid, version) -- Application version tracking
businessunits (businessunitid, businessunit) -- Business unit classifications
```

## Common Tasks
### Start Development Environment
```bash
cd ~/projects/windows/shopdb
~/start-dev-env.sh # Starts Docker + Windows VM
# Wait ~30 seconds for IIS to start
curl http://192.168.122.151:8080 # Test
```
### Database Access
```bash
# Connect to MySQL
docker exec -it dev-mysql mysql -u root -prootpassword shopdb
# Backup database
docker exec dev-mysql mysqldump -u root -prootpassword shopdb > backup.sql
# Restore database
docker exec -i dev-mysql mysql -u root -prootpassword shopdb < backup.sql
# Check table counts
docker exec dev-mysql mysql -u root -prootpassword shopdb \
-e "SELECT table_name, table_rows FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema='shopdb' ORDER BY table_rows DESC;"
```
### Code Development
```bash
# Edit files (auto-syncs to Windows via Samba)
code ~/projects/windows/shopdb/
# Check syntax (if you have a validator)
# ASP doesn't have great linters, test by loading in browser
# View logs (Windows VM)
# C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\
```
### Testing Changes
1. Save file on Linux (auto-syncs to Z:\shopdb\ on Windows)
2. Refresh browser (http://192.168.122.151:8080/yourfile.asp)
3. Check browser console for JS errors
4. Check IIS Express console for ASP errors
5. Check database for data changes

## Search System Quick Guide
### Search Syntax
- **Exact match:** `"exact phrase"` (not yet implemented)
- **Multiple words:** `word1 word2` (finds both)
- **Short words:** < 4 characters use LIKE fallback automatically
### What's Searchable?
- **Applications:** Name
- **Knowledge Base:** Title, keywords, application name
- **Notifications:** Notification text
- **Machines:** Number, alias, type, vendor, notes
- **Printers:** CSF name, model, serial number
### Smart Redirects
- **Printer serial (exact):** → Printer detail page
- **Printer FQDN (exact):** → Printer detail page
- **Machine number (exact):** → Machine detail page

## Key VBScript Patterns
### Include Required Files
```vbscript
```
### Safe Database Query
```vbscript
<%
' Get and validate input
Dim machineId
machineId = GetSafeInteger("QS", "machineid", 0, 1, 999999)
If machineId = 0 Then
Response.Redirect("error.asp?code=INVALID_ID")
Response.End
End If
' Parameterized query
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM machines WHERE machineid = ? AND isactive = 1"
Set rs = ExecuteParameterizedQuery(objConn, strSQL, Array(machineId))
' Use results
If Not rs.EOF Then
Response.Write Server.HTMLEncode(rs("machinenumber"))
End If
' Cleanup
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
Call CleanupResources()
%>
```
### Display a List
```vbscript
<%
strSQL = "SELECT machineid, machinenumber, alias FROM machines WHERE isactive=1 ORDER BY machinenumber"
Set rs = objConn.Execute(strSQL)
Do While Not rs.EOF
%>
| <%=Server.HTMLEncode(rs("machinenumber"))%> |
<%=Server.HTMLEncode(rs("alias"))%> |
">View |
<%
rs.MoveNext
Loop
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
%>
```
### Form Handling
```vbscript
<%
If Request.ServerVariables("REQUEST_METHOD") = "POST" Then
' Validate input
Dim machineName
machineName = GetSafeString("FORM", "machinename", "", 1, 50, "^[A-Za-z0-9\s\-]+$")
If machineName = "" Then
Call HandleValidationError("addmachine.asp", "REQUIRED_FIELD")
End If
' Insert into database
strSQL = "INSERT INTO machines (machinenumber) VALUES (?)"
Set rs = ExecuteParameterizedQuery(objConn, strSQL, Array(machineName))
Call CleanupResources()
Response.Redirect("displaymachines.asp")
Response.End
End If
%>
```

## Troubleshooting
### "Page Cannot Be Displayed"
1. Check IIS Express is running (Windows Task Manager)
2. Check Windows VM is running: `virsh list --all`
3. Check network: `ping 192.168.122.151`
4. Restart: `~/stop-dev-env.sh && ~/start-dev-env.sh`
### "Database Connection Failed"
1. Check MySQL container: `docker ps | grep mysql`
2. Check credentials in sql.asp
3. Test connection: `docker exec -it dev-mysql mysql -u 570005354 -p570005354 shopdb`
4. Check firewall: MySQL port 3306 must be open
### "ODBC Driver Not Found" (Windows)
1. Install MySQL ODBC 8.0 Driver on Windows VM
2. Verify in Control Panel → ODBC Data Sources
3. Restart IIS Express
### "Changes Not Appearing"
1. Hard refresh: Ctrl+F5
2. Check file actually saved: `ls -la ~/projects/windows/shopdb/filename.asp`
3. Check Samba: `sudo systemctl status smbd`
4. Check Windows can see Z: drive
### "SQL Injection Error"
1. You're using unsafe query patterns!
2. Use `ExecuteParameterizedQuery()` from db_helpers.asp
3. Review STANDARDS.md for correct patterns

## Useful SQL Queries
### Get All PCs
```sql
SELECT m.machineid, m.hostname, m.serialnumber, pt.typename AS pctype
FROM machines m
JOIN pctype pt ON m.pctypeid = pt.pctypeid
WHERE m.pctypeid IS NOT NULL AND m.isactive = 1
ORDER BY m.hostname;
```
### Get All Equipment
```sql
SELECT m.machineid, m.machinenumber, m.alias, mt.machinetype
FROM machines m
JOIN machinetypes mt ON m.machinetypeid = mt.machinetypeid
WHERE m.pctypeid IS NULL AND m.machinetypeid < 16 AND m.isactive = 1
ORDER BY m.machinenumber;
```
### Get Network Devices
```sql
SELECT m.machineid, m.alias, mt.machinetype, c.address
FROM machines m
JOIN machinetypes mt ON m.machinetypeid = mt.machinetypeid
LEFT JOIN communications c ON m.machineid = c.machineid AND c.isprimary = 1
WHERE m.machinetypeid IN (16,17,18,19,20) AND m.isactive = 1;
```
### Find PC by Hostname with IP
```sql
SELECT m.hostname, m.serialnumber, c.address AS ipaddress, pt.typename
FROM machines m
JOIN pctype pt ON m.pctypeid = pt.pctypeid
LEFT JOIN communications c ON m.machineid = c.machineid AND c.isprimary = 1
WHERE m.hostname = 'PC-NAME' AND m.pctypeid IS NOT NULL;
```
### Equipment with Controlling PCs
```sql
SELECT
equipment.machinenumber AS equipment,
equipment.alias,
pc.hostname AS controlling_pc
FROM machinerelationships mr
JOIN machines equipment ON mr.machineid = equipment.machineid
JOIN machines pc ON mr.related_machineid = pc.machineid
WHERE mr.relationshiptypeid = 3 AND mr.isactive = 1;
```
### Most Clicked KB Articles
```sql
SELECT k.shortdescription, a.applicationname, k.clicks, k.linkurl
FROM knowledgebase k
JOIN applications a ON k.applicationid = a.applicationid
WHERE k.isactive = 1
ORDER BY k.clicks DESC
LIMIT 20;
```
### DualPath PCs
```sql
SELECT m.hostname, dnc.dualpath_enabled, dnc.path1_name, dnc.path2_name
FROM machines m
JOIN dncconfig dnc ON m.machineid = dnc.machineid
WHERE dnc.dualpath_enabled = 1 AND m.pctypeid IS NOT NULL;

## Common Gotchas
1. **VBScript uses & for concatenation**, not +
2. **Comparison is = not ==**
3. **All Dim declarations must be at function/procedure top**
4. **Always close recordsets and connections**
5. **FULLTEXT requires words ≥ 4 characters** (we have LIKE fallback)
6. **bit(1) fields need CBool() conversion** to use in IF statements
7. **Request.QueryString/Form always returns strings** - validate/cast!
8. **Server.HTMLEncode() all output** to prevent XSS
9. **objConn is global** - don't redeclare, just use it
10. **File paths in Windows use backslash** \, Linux forward /
