No repo access since two days

Hello there! Sorry, I have no idea where to post this, I hope it's the right place. Since two days I get 403 forbidden errors by apt update at all URLs from mariadb.com I try to get out the reason but I can't. What I have done: - check the trusted.d keys and reinstall it - check if the VHost provider is the problem. So I install a clean new VM at Strato with Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 and get the same error on both by using the 'mariadb_repo_setup' script. - install a clean VM at Hetzner whit ubuntu 24.04 and get the same problem by using the 'mariadb_repo_setup' script. I have no Idee what's happend. If I use the URL via curl there is no error. But I can see that the Request to https://dlm.mariadb.com/repo/mariadb-server/11.4/repo/ubuntu/dists/jammy/In… was redirectet to some cloudflare services with some tokens and timestamps and so on perhaps apt cannot handle that? 3 days before there was no issue with this configuration. Here is a output-example: bash mariadb_repo_setup # [info] Checking for script prerequisites. # [info] MariaDB Server version 11.4 is valid # [info] Repository file successfully written to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mariadb.list # [info] Adding trusted package signing keys... # [info] Running apt-get update...

Deleted database still present on replica
by Dave Hall 06 Jun '24

06 Jun '24

Hello, If this is not the right place for this question, please feel free to redirect... I am running MariaDB version 10.5.23 in a master/replica configuration with 4 replicas. I recently experienced a failure that required me to restore the DBs on all of my DB systems from backup, including all of my replicas. Somehow in the course of this process I have some databases on my some of my replicas that have been deleted on the master. What is the best way to remove these without confusing or breaking the replication process? Thanks. -Dave -- Dave Hall Binghamton University kdhall(a)binghamton.edu

Hello All, We have a vendor app that attempts a large number of connections and creating the following error in the MariaDB logs (10.11) Aborted connection 0 to db: 'unconnected' user: 'unauthenticated' host: 'connecting host' (Too many connections) Could this error be cause by the vendor app reusing connections that have been idled out on the server side?

Deadlock Errors
by Scott Canaan 10 May '24

10 May '24

We have a 3-node Galera cluster running MariaDB 10.5.23. A couple months ago the cluster had an issue and one of my coworkers handled it. We have several cron jobs that run against the databases to gather statistics and other information. One of those jobs runs every 15 minutes. Since the last issue, one SQL in that script has been throwing a deadlock error on two of the three nodes in the cluster: ERROR 1213 (40001) at line 14: Deadlock found when trying to get lock; try restarting transaction I've been monitoring and I don't see the job running more than once at the same time on the same server. The SQL that it is failing on is: insert into rit_mdb_track_logins select report_date, user, count(*) logins from rit_mdb_track_login_detail group by report_date, user; I've run this SQL manually and it works fine. I'm not sure where to go from here.

TCMalloc with Maria and THPs
by Simon Avery 08 May '24

08 May '24

Hello I'm looking to test tcmalloc for use on our ~80 Maria 10.11.[6-7] servers, running either Rocky 8/9 or Debian 12. A few years ago we moved to using jemalloc which helped resolve or reduce many of the memory leaks on these servers from using the distro's default malloc. We still have a couple of machines where Maria eventually uses all the memory until oomkiller steps in - although we've largely mitigated that by adopting weekly restarts for them. Thanks to Sergei Golubchik for his most useful post here on the 5th on the subject of memory leaks, which has got us looking at tcmalloc and also raises the question of Transparent Huge Pages. Sergei cites several reliable sources recommending turning them off for MariaDb and similar databases. Now - my question; tcmalloc's documentation on tuning at https://google.github.io/tcmalloc/tuning.html says "TCMalloc heavily relies on Transparent Huge Pages (THP)." And explains it's built and tested with THPs enabled and seems to strongly recommend leaving them on. That contradicts the above articles, leaving me confused about which path is best practice. It seems that THP's should be on as advised by tcmalloc, but also off when running MariaDb. The true answer possibly depends on which has the highest priority in terms of database-specific performance and the ability to manage the memory tightly. What are others' views, please? I'm searching in particular for best practice and real world experiences with tcmalloc. Also - if it's unlikely to improve upon jemalloc.

Detect INSERT vs REPLACE in BEFORE INSERT trigger
by Alex Hermann 07 May '24

07 May '24

Hi, Is there a (built-in) way to detect from within a BEFORE INSERT trigger whether it was triggered by an INSERT or REPLACE statement? I could surround every REPLACE statement with setting and clearing a variable. Problem is that this could easily be forgotten as there are multiple applications accessing the table. I'd rather not wrap access in a stored procedure or worse. What will not work is to do a SELECT (tailored to every UNIQUE key) to determine if a record will be replaced. I do not need to know if a record _will_ be replaced, just that the intention is that it _can_ be replaced. Background: the trigger does a validation that is not enforcable via a UNIQUE key. This precludes an INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE ... construction. When the validation finds a conflicting row, the query must fail when the _intent_ is to add a new record (INSERT), but succeed when the _intent_ is to replace (REPLACE) that row. -- Regards, Alex Hermann

Re: Detect INSERT vs REPLACE in BEFORE INSERT trigger

Hi Alex, >> May I assume that it's also not quite as trivial as doing something >> like this: >> >> CONSTRAINT `valid_phone` CHECK (`phoneno` regexp '^0[1-8][0-9]{8}$') > Correct. It does its own conflict detection as UNIQUE keys can't > represent it. I wasn't thinking that the CONSTRAINT needs to be UNIQUE, the above is a CHECK ... which could potentially use a stored function to perform the check ... timing could then possibly again be an issue depending on whether the function will still see the old data or not (https://mariadb.com/kb/en/constraint/#check-constraints has some info, but testing will be required). "One can use most deterministic functions in a constraint, including UDFs <https://mariadb.com/kb/en/user-defined-functions/>." Kind regards, Jaco

SOUNDEX function
by lucyfrost＠tutanota.com 01 May '24

01 May '24

I'm developing a project which uses soundex matching (amongside other options more sophisticated than that). This is custom software with a mariad back end. MariaDB soundex built-in produces codes of apparently arbitary length; the usual is 4 characters. I've come to the conclusion that the best way forward is to mimic Maria's soundex in the code. I cannt find a desciption of the algorith Maria uses though: the only source code I can find is in mf_soundex.c, and that is explicitly limited wo 4 characters. But I have installed triggers which generate codes such as A4152636125262 Where is the soundex function found? Anyone know?

testing req/sec
by Marc 26 Apr '24

26 Apr '24

I would like to test how many requests/sec mariadb can process to authenticate users. So I need to be able to test how many cycles I can do of connecting to mariadb, executing the password sql statement and closing the connection. Anyone know what tool I can use for this?
