Package: prometheus-mysqld-exporter Version: 0.14.0-1+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
in /etc/default/prometheus-mysqld-exporter it is written > [...] > ### Monitoring user creation. > # > # You need a user with enough privileges for the exporter to run. > # > # Example to create a user to connect (only) via UNIX socket: > # CREATE USER IF NOT EXISTS 'prometheus'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH auth_socket; > # > [...] However, when you will follow this advice you will get the error message > /* SQL Error (1524): Plugin 'auth_socket' is not loaded */ That's because in MariaDB 10.4.3 and later, "auth_socket" was replaced by "unix_socket". I would suggest to update the default config file. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.18.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages prometheus-mysqld-exporter depends on: ii adduser 3.123 ii init-system-helpers 1.64 ii libc6 2.33-8 prometheus-mysqld-exporter recommends no packages.
