DirectAdmin Task Queue Log shows several lines DATE+TIME + Unknown mysql password format: 'unknown'
The Date/Time corresponds to the backup time (Admin backup/transfer).
I checked:
#cat /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/setup.txt
And used the root password "#mysql -uroot -p" and was able to login in MariaDB 5.5.41
#cat /usr/local/directadmin/conf/mysql.conf
And used the da_admin password "#mysql -uda_admin -p" and was able to login in MariaDB 5.5.41.
I have no idea how long this is going on, it seems I have not checked this log for a while.
When the backup has finished, I see no errors in the ticket. It just shows 'user xx has been backed up.
2020:02:20-03:10:03: Unknown mysql password format: 'unknown' (shown: 4 times)
2020:02:20-03:10:04: Unknown mysql password format: 'unknown' (shown: 3 times)
2020:02:20-03:11:26: Unknown mysql password format: 'unknown'
And the ticket output:
User admin has been backed up. <3:10:03>
User u001 has been backed up. <3:10:06>
User u002 has been backed up. <3:10:06>
User u003 has been backed up. <3:11:25>
User u004 has been backed up. <3:11:39>
I left out the remaining users that were backed up, the date and time of the errors cover the shown backups.
I extracted the backup for u001, it has several databases.
The backup contained folder "backup/" and in there I saw several files named xxx_cccc.sql
Those files contained real backup data, so the error in the Task Queue did not disrupt the backup. AFAIK.
(Googling this error gave 1 hit, in this forum, 2011, and the question was not answered as people got sidetracked I guess).
