Package: mysql-server-5.0 Version: 5.0.13rc-1 Severity: normal
I turned off binary logging on my MySQL instance by commenting out log-bin in my.cnf. The next day the daily cron job failed like this: /etc/cron.daily/mysql-server: ERROR 1381 (HY000) at line 1: You are not using binary logging This sounds just like bug 332280, which is now fixed, but I'm running 5.0.13-x which is supposed to have fixed this bug. I dug into the script a bit and I think the problem is that the test for whether binary logging works isn't quite right. In particular, this command: echo 'SHOW MASTER LOGS;'| mysql --skip-column-names | cut -f1 >/tmp/foo 2>&1; returns exit code 0 on my machine, so the test in cron.daily is failing. I am getting the expected output ERROR 1381 (HY000) at line 1: You are not using binary logging although strangely it's showing up in my console, not the temp file.
