Something changed with the mysql_db module recently and it has broken all
of our MySQL backup playbooks. We get the following error now:
unable to find '/home/user/.my.cnf' . Exception message: 'password' is an
invalid keyword argument for this function
According to the documentation, the default for config_file is "~/.my.cnf"
for the user and password. But if we make that an empty string, it should
be ignored. However, when I try that, I get the same error message, only
without the path to the .my.cnf file:
unable to find . Exception message: 'password' is an invalid keyword
argument for this function
We are specifying our username and password via Ansible Vault:
- name: Backup MySQL databases
community.mysql.mysql_db:
state: dump
name: "redmine"
target: "/tmp/backup_{{ inventory_hostname }}.{{
ansible_date_time.month }}{{ ansible_date_time.day }}{{
ansible_date_time.year }}.sql"
config_file: ''
login_user: root
login_password: "{{ mysql_password }}"
How can I determine why I'm getting the "password is an invalid keyword
argument for this function", and how can I fix it?
Thanks,
Harry
