[Maria-discuss] sssd with authentication plugin pam
by Michael Barkdoll 05 Aug '21

05 Aug '21

Hi, I'm having issues getting the pam plugin to work with Rocky Linux 8 (RHEL 8) with AppStream MariaDB 10.5. I've installed mariadb appstream for 10.5 and mariadb-pam packages. Added the following to /etc/my.cnf.d: [mariadb] plugin_load_add = auth_pam My sssd is joined to Active Directory. I've created /etc/pam.d/mariadb trying both local pam_unix and pam_sss configurations: # /etc/pam.d/mariadb for local accounts auth required pam_unix.so audit account required pam_unix.so audit # /etc/pam.d/mariadb for sssd active directory accounts auth required pam_sss.so account required pam_sss.so Tried creating local accounts with: #CREATE USER 'user'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam USING 'mariadb'; #GRANT SELECT ON db.* TO 'user'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam; #CREATE USER 'user2'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam; #GRANT SELECT ON db.* TO 'user2'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam; I've also tried creating AD accounts: #CREATE USER 'aduser'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam USING 'mariadb'; #GRANT SELECT ON db.* TO 'aduser'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam; #CREATE USER 'aduser(a)college.edu'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam USING 'mariadb'; #GRANT SELECT ON db.* TO 'aduser(a)college.edu'@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam; I see Redhat has issues with MariaDB 10.3 working with pam plugin but it sounded like 10.5 should work? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1942330 I feel like I'm missing something in my /etc/sssd/sssd.conf file or some pam configuration steps. I'm using authselect with sssd: authselect select custom/user-profile with-mkhomedir with-sudo with-pamaccess All attempts to `mysql -u user -p` fail. MariaDB [(none)]> show plugins; | pam | ACTIVE | AUTHENTICATION | auth_pam.so | GPL | I tried adding a [pam] section to sssd. [pam] pam_public_domains = all pam_verbosity = 3 Didn't seem to help. I used realmd to join AD. Any help is much appreciated. mysql -u user -p Enter password: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'user'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

Could be that one or two small tables use InnoDB. But when the replication is running, just one counter is always increasing, the other is staying zero (or in case of switching the master while being run) staying fixed.

The size of a few MyISAM tables is reaching almost TBs. And thank you for the idea with the BlackHole engine :) Jan

[Maria-discuss] DBSeeder Version 3.0.1
by Walter Weinmann 03 Aug '21

03 Aug '21

We are pleased to release version 3.0.1 of DBSeeder ( https://github.com/KonnexionsGmbH/db_seeder). The most important enhancement is the possibility to deactivate the constraints of the type FOREIGN, PRIMARY and UNIQUE KEY before the DML statements and to activate them again afterwards. The JDBC DatabaseMetaData class is used for this purpose. DBSeeder also supports the latest version of MariaDB Server available on Docker Hub (DBMS 10.6.3) and Maven Repository (JDBC 2.7.3).

[Maria-discuss] MySQL crash after 'partial' version upgrade
by William Edwards 26 Jul '21

26 Jul '21

Hello, The weather probably has an effect on me, because I'm not seeing the cause for the issue below right away. Hopefully someone can use the cluebat. Also, I apologize if we're not supposed to paste snippets of this size in email, but I couldn't find a mailing list policy on this. I was using this repo: `deb [arch=amd64,i386,ppc64el] http://mariadb.mirror.pcextreme.nl/repo/10.3/debian stretch main` This repo was no longer being updated, so I replaced it with this repo: `deb [arch=amd64,arm64,ppc64el] http://ams2.mirrors.digitalocean.com/mariadb/repo/10.3/debian buster main` That made these updates available: ``` galera-3/unknown 25.3.33-buster amd64 [upgradable from: 25.3.32-stretch] libmariadb-dev-compat/unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster amd64 [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] libmariadb-dev/unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster amd64 [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] libmariadb3/unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster amd64 [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] mariadb-client-10.3/unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster amd64 [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] mariadb-client-core-10.3/unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster amd64 [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] mariadb-common/unknown,unknown,unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster all [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] mariadb-server-10.3/unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster amd64 [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] mariadb-server-core-10.3/unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster amd64 [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] mysql-common/unknown,unknown,unknown 1:10.3.30+maria~buster all [upgradable from: 1:10.3.28+maria~stretch] ``` Ansible then wrongly attempted installing the meta package 'mariadb-server', which was not installed yet ('mariadb-server-10.3' was installed directly). This meta package depends on 'mariadb-server-10.3 (>= 1:10.3.30+maria~buster)' (we were running 10.3.28, and an update was now available), so apt did this: ``` Building dependency tree...

After stopping and starting MariaDB (probably loading new libraries), I started seeing this: ``` 210723 16:09:33 [ERROR] mysqld got signal 11 ; This could be because you hit a bug.

I have two other machines in the same situation, where I simply did 'apt upgrade' after replacing the repo, and all seems well. In conclusion: replacing a repo that provides an update from 10.3.28 to 10.3.30, then installing the 'mariadb-server' meta package that does not install all available updates (like 'libmariadb3'), caused MySQL to crash (badly)... While installing all available updates at the same time ('apt upgrade') does not cause this issue on another machine. I don't necessarily want to understand how to avoid this specific situation, because I should've done a full upgrade in any case, but I am wondering what I am missing that caused this issue. -- With kind regards, William Edwards

[Maria-discuss] MariaDB daily backups on EC2/EBS via EBS snapshots?
by Joachim Dorn 12 Jul '21

12 Jul '21

Hi, for the scenario of a daily backup on a MariaDB with InnoDB engine running on a EC2 with EBS - would a EBS snapshot be enough to have consistent backups that MariaDB could restore from? I know that I might lose in-flight transactions without any "flushing", but for a daily backup, I accept the backup being a few (milli) seconds bit behind, as long as I have a consistent persistent state. To my understanding Amazon EBS snapshots are consistent point-in-time snapshots (e.g via copy-on-write) of the volume, and MariaDB with a transactional storage engine guarantees transactional consistent writes to disk under all conditions. Thanks for any clarification! Joachim

[Maria-discuss] dist-upgrade for minor version upgrade
by William Edwards 10 Jul '21

10 Jul '21

Hi, https://mariadb.com/kb/en/upgrading-from-mariadb-104-to-mariadb-105/ (and all other minor upgrade guides) contain these steps: 2. Stop MariaDB. 3. Uninstall the old version of MariaDB: On Debian, Ubuntu, and other similar Linux distributions, execute the following: sudo apt-get remove mariadb-server 4. Install the new version of MariaDB. I'm thinking to myself: doesn't it make more sense to instruct readers to 'dist-upgrade' on Ubuntu and Debian (which works because of the 'Replaces' in newer packages)? That would merge steps 3 and 4 (and maybe step 2 as well, because of stop_server() in preinst) into one command that could be easier to use for novice users. Sorry if I missed a detail that dist-upgrade does not take care of. -- With kind regards, William Edwards

[Maria-discuss] Differences between MariaDB packages
by William Edwards 27 Jun '21

27 Jun '21

Hello, I recently discovered a bug in my MariaDB deployment process. I have two Ansible tasks that respectively add the downloads.mariadb.org Debian repo, and install mariadb-server-10.*. I forgot to add 'update_cache: yes' to the repo add task, so incidentally mariadb-server-10.* was actually installed from the Debian repo. I have seen the following differences between the mariadb-server-10.* packages: - Packages from Debian repo only come with the 'root@localhost' user. Packages from MariaDB repo come with the users 'root@localhost', 'root@::1' and 'root(a)127.0.0.1'. - Packages from Debian repo don't come with 'debian-sys-maint@localhost' user. Instead, the 'root' user is used in /etc/mysql/debian.cnf - Packages from Debian repo use DebianAlternatives for my.cnf. Packages from MariaDB repo also come with a more advanced my.cnf, e.g. 'bind-address = 127.0.0.1' is set - not being able to remotely connect is how I discovered this bug on my side. - Packages from MariaDB repo come with package configuration (specifically: setting root password). Q: I'm wondering if anyone has a more complete list of differences between these packages (the above is just what I've observed from fixing issues due to this bug). I don't know if the Debian maintainers for this package branch off a package by MariaDB, so I posted this here, but please let me know if I would be better off posting this on a Debian mailing list. TIA. With kind regards, William Edwards

[Maria-discuss] OpenSSL 3.0 support
by Lukas Javorsky 17 Jun '21

17 Jun '21

Hi, We've created two Jira tickets for the OpenSSL 3.0 support, however, we didn't really get a response or any detailed information from you about it. Connector-c: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONC-503 Server: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-25785 It's our big concern to support this ASAP because we are aiming to support OpenSSL version 3.0 in the RHEL-9 which is coming soon. Our mission in RHEL-9 is to aim for the newest software version because we are going to support this OS for more than 10 years, and the major changes should be done in the beginning. We would like to know your opinion about this so we can maybe try to help you in some way. Please let us know what you think about it. Thank you and have a nice day -- S pozdravom/ Best regards Lukáš Javorský Associate Software Engineer, Core service - Databases Red Hat <https://www.redhat.com> Purkyňova 115 (TPB-C) 612 00 Brno - Královo Pole ljavorsk(a)redhat.com <https://www.redhat.com>

How can we avoid those locks? Thanks Riccardo

Hello, I am using MariaDB in a Project and to Allow users to Search the Data we use Fulltext Indexes, as you cannot make a Fulltext Index across multiple tables we have multiple match against statements and are Combining them with OR. The Problem is that the Natural Language Mode only Matches Full Words and not Partial ones. The Solution is Boolean Mode where you can append a * to a word to allow 0 or more characters. But Boolean Mode also Brings Other Operators. These other Operator can Behave Unexpectedly for The User when Combining Multiple Match Against Statements With OR. Using the "ft_boolean_syntax" variable one can change the characters used for these operators but this is limited to ASCII characters below 127. I suggest That we add a special character that disables a operator. What do you think about this? Or do you See a different Solution? Regards, Samuel
