Description

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?

BUG REPORT

Versions

MySQL Operator Version: 0.2.0

Environment: Linux

  • Kubernetes version (use kubectl version): 1.11.2
  • Cloud provider or hardware configuration:
  • OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release): CentOS 7

What happened?

MySQL agent will not connect when root password is set. If root password is left blank, it starts up correctly.

kubectl create secret generic -n mysql mysql-cluster-root-password --from-literal=password=XXXXXX

apiVersion: mysql.oracle.com/v1alpha1 kind: Cluster metadata: name: mysql-cluster namespace: mysql spec: multiMaster: true members: 3 rootPasswordSecret: name: mysql-cluster-root-password

What you expected to happen?

Pods to start up when rootPasswordSecret is set.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the code that constructs the MySQL connection string from the root password secret. Look for where the password is interpolated and check if '#' is treated as a fragment identifier or comment. Search for related tests and add a regression test with a password containing '#'.
