Must be... I can confirm on 11.4 and I too have the proper .my.cnf entries and settings: [18:56 alchemy:~] # cat .my.cnf [mysqladmin] password = mypasswd user = root [mysqldump] password = mypasswd user = root [mysql] password = mypasswd user = root [mysqlcheck] password = mypasswd user = root I don't even have a guess as to why this started failing. The logrotate script is trying to run under mysqladmin, so your entry and the first entry above should be sufficient -- it has been for the last "how many?" years? This seems to be opensuse specific. With mysql 5.5.24-1, I do not see the same issue on Arch. - -- David C.

maybe wrong permissions on /var/log/mysql/ directory. try to change this to # chmod 750 /var/log/mysql/ and optional # chown mysql /var/log/mysql/ ciao paolo

I think I might have found the underlying cause of this. Went from 11.4 12.2 a couple of weeks ago and the flush-log option no longer worked affecting mysqldump among other things so I dug into it.

I have seen the same, but I just switch off the logrotate for mysqld.log - very little is ever written to it. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (11.4°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
