Re: Can't disable Mariadb general query log

 

Hi Karl,

The option is in the same group as all other settings that do take effect
([mysqld]) and is the same across all 3 slave servers.

Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
> /etc/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
> The following groups are read: mysqld server mysqld-10.4 mariadb
> mariadb-10.4 mariadbd mariadbd-10.4 client-server galera


~/.my.cnf only contains user/password auth info and nothing else.

The printout lists these:

> general-log                                                TRUE
> general-log-file
> /var/log/mysql/mysqld-queries.log


The log-file is exactly what I set in my.cnf, but general-log is set to
TRUE, even though I have it set to "off".

I'm still at a loss.

Sincerely,
Artem
