Hello OpenSUSE users, since recently upgrading from 42.2 to 42.3 I do receive an error with logrotate on the mariadb config. 2018-03-14T00:00:01.845385+01:00 cx20-2 logrotate[22165]: error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' 2018-03-14T00:00:01.846915+01:00 cx20-2 logrotate[22165]: the root acount is protected by password. 2018-03-14T00:00:01.847363+01:00 cx20-2 logrotate[22165]: See comments in /etc/logrotate.d/mariadb on how to fix this 2018-03-14T00:00:01.849623+01:00 cx20-2 logrotate[22165]: error: error running non-shared postrotate script for /var/log/mysql/mysqld.log of '/var/log/mysql/mysqld.log ' yes, I did create the file /root/.my.cnf with read only permissions 0600 for root only [mysqladmin] password = mysecretpassword user = root but it doesn't help ;( If I login via CLI all is fine.
