more general message when slave can't start because of incorrect
replication information, the previous one was sometimes a misleading
indication (i.e. sometimes the problem had nothing to do with
system permissions).
The perfect fix would be to report the exact error to the client
(instead of pointing the client to the error log); this is a bit
of work so it's more a development task:
WL#1088 "Move all hardcoded messages of replication to share/errmsg.txt".
I was not able to modify the errmsg.txt in these sql/ subdirectories:
danish
dutch
german
italian
portuguese
russian
spanish
swedish
ukrainian
"EE_ error codes (EE_DELETE, EE_WRITE) end up in the binlog, making slave stop".
The problem was that during execution of the command on the master, an error
can occur (for example, not space left on device, then mysqld waits and when
there is space it completes successfully: so finally it worked but the error
EE_WRITE remains in thd->net.last_errno and thd->net.last_error).
To know if finally the command succeeded, we test the 'error' variable in
every place, and if it shows no failure we reset thd->net.last_err* using
the function THD::clear_error() which is backported from 4.1.
A new test to see if now only real errors get to the binlog (note: the test
uses "rm").
Also a bit of memory free/alloc saving in log_event.cc (do not free the whole
mem_root after every query in the slave SQL thread: we can keep the initial
block of it; which will be freed when the thread terminates).
Don't dump data for MRG_ISAM or MRG_MYISAM tables. (Bug #1846)
Ensure that 'lower_case_table_names' is always set on case insensitive file systems. (Bug #1812)
One can now configure MySQL as windows service as a normal user. (Bug #1802)
Database names is now compared with lower case in ON clause when lower_case_table_names is set. (Bug #1736)
IGNORE ... LINES option didn't work when used with fixed length rows. (Bug #1704)
Change INSERT DELAYED ... SELECT... to INSERT .... SELECT (Bug #1983)
Safety fix for service 'mysql start' (Bug #1815)
Fixed problem with char > 128 in QUOTE() function. (Bug #1868)
Disable creation of symlinks if my_disable_symlink is set
Fixed searching of TEXT with end space. (Bug #1651)
Fixed caching bug in multi-table-update where same table was used twice. (Bug #1711)
Fixed problem with UNIX_TIMESTAMP() for timestamps close to 0. (Bug #1998)
Fixed timestamp.test
it happens because of the LEFT JOINT optimization in add_key_part()
This optimization does exactly the same in JOIN and in WHERE conditions
Not right.
I moved that optimization one level upper.
"SHOW TABLE STATUS very slow w/large number of tables"
Replaced old algorithm which were used in my_dir() and stored
all information about directory entries in one chunk of memory
with new one which stores file names and MY_STAT structures in
separate memroot, so now we don't need to copy this data during
reallocation of dir_entry array.
mysql_server_init() now returns error code if something went wrong (Bug #2062)
Don't use my_fopen() when reading symlink information as this may cause problems when a lot of files are opened.
Free thread keys with pthread_key_delete() instead of relying on automatic free. (Bug #2062)
Fixed bug in UNION statement with alias '*'. (Bug #1249)
Fixed a bug in DELETE ... ORDER BY ... LIMIT where the rows where not deleted in the proper order. (Bug #1024).
FOUND_ROWS() could return incorrect number of rows after a query with an impossible WHERE condition.
HOW DATABASES doesn't anymore show .sym files (on windows) that doesn't point to a valid directory. (Bug #1385)
SQL_BIG_RESULT used": now BIT_AND() always returns 18446744073709551615
if no rows were found.
This patch also fixes bug #1972: "BIT_AND() and BIT_OR() still return
a *signed* 64bit value"
