Hello Stephen, Did u try this ??
mysql> show global variables like '%log_output%'; +---------------+-------+ | Variable_name | Value | +---------------+-------+ | log_output | FILE | +---------------+-------+ If only the log_output is FILE, then the slow queries will get logged in the log. mysql> set global log_output = FILE; [if you find log_output as TABLE or NONE] Let me know if you have any issues...
