FW: RE: MySQL Logging

Thanks very much Richard. I planned to do that exact thing ;) but there is no log file on my server, logging must not be enabled.

I read about the log switch you can pass while starting mysql, do I edit a script in rc.d or can this setting be set in my.cnf?

Kind regards, JJ

Hi,

You could do something like tail -n25 /var/log/mysqld.log | mail -s
"Database Logs" user@xxxxxxxxxx, and run it in cron.  For logging, if you
want to log queries, you would use mysqld --log=/var/log/queries.log, but
I'm not sure this is the type of logging you're looking for.

What might be a better idea, is do the mysqldump, dump everything to a text
file, then, at the end of the text file, append the date so that it looks
like:

INSERT INTO....
03/13/2004

Then, just tail the last 10 lines of the text file, and you can verify a
couple lines of data as well as the current date.  Worse case, you have to
restore that data, you just have to remove the date.

Hope this helps,
Richard
