    Description

      When more than one key management plugin are turned on either on server startup or at runtime, the second and other plugins fail to load with the error

      10.2 27b5d814

      		 
      MariaDB [test]> install soname 'example_key_management';
      		 
      ERROR 1123 (HY000): Can't initialize function 'example_key_management'; Plugin initialization function failed.


      2022-04-11  0:41:54 140483355105024 [ERROR] Plugin 'example_key_management' registration as a ENCRYPTION failed.

      It was a theoretical problem till now, as we only had one "real" plugin, but now with hashicorp being added it becomes more practical.

      Probably the rejection is intentional, but it would be good to produce a more comprehensive error message (in the log at least).
