description |
Whenever an apport report is made for mysql-8.0 my.cnf goes unreported with the following message:
MySQLConf.etc.mysql.my.cnf: Error: [Errno 40] Too many levels of symbolic links: '/etc/mysql/my.cnf'
See the auto-generated report below which contains this. The report is from a focal vm with no other errors reported.
ProblemType: Bug

[Impact]
Whenever a mysql crash is reported to Launchpad through apport, the my.cnf attachment will often report back as:
MySQLConf.etc.mysql.my.cnf: Error: [Errno 40] Too many levels of symbolic links: '/etc/mysql/my.cnf'
This makes it difficult to debug a user's configuration issues, and can lead to an incorrect triage of the issue by those unfamiliar with mysql's apport reports.
The provided fix shows what my.cnf links to if it is a symbolic link, or outputs the content of the file if has been customized.
[Test Plan]
To test, create a local apport report of mysql-server:
# lxc launch images:ubuntu/[kinetic, jammy, impish, focal] test-mysql
# lxc exec test-mysql bash
# apt update && apt dist-upgrade -y
# apt install apport mysql-server
# ubuntu-bug mysql-server
V
- Under the my.cnf section the too many symbolic links error will be shown
C
[Where problems could occur]
Now that the apport script follows symlinks to find the actual contents of my.cnf, additional errors could be caused while the crash report is generated.
[Other Info]
This fix was uploaded to kinetic in 8.0.29-0ubuntu3
