I agree, and I'm happy to say that the release notes for 8.0 mention that it has finally gone away. That doesn't change the fact, however, that there are countless installations out there that use it, which is whom I was targeting with that mail :-) Is that service description you pasted the one that comes with the MariaDB package, or did you roll it yourself ? -- Unhappiness is discouraged and will be corrected with kitten pictures. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
