mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.22-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal
Description
At default setup Ubuntu creates this file:
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
its a symlink:
/etc/mysql/my.cnf -> /etc/alternatives/my.cnf
So, then you trying to change something in config files you have zero reaction, and you cant debug it by service mariadb restart - it restarts and everything works, but config is ingored because of this:
# mysql -u root -p
|
Warning: World-writable config file '/etc/mysql/my.cnf' is ignored |
So you can spend a hours to guess that is going on.
