    Description

      Setting max_connections to 1 is possible on MySQL 5.7 and 8.0, but doesn't work with recent versions of MariaDB. The documentation seems to indicate it should work as it gives the range from 1 to 100000.

      (I've tagged the specific versions I've tested, but it's obviously likely to affect other 10.2 and 10.3 versions as well.)
