  • Bug#1102326: monitorix: Can't connect to MySQL "Can't locate DBD/mysql.

    From Olivier Berger@21:1/5 to All on Mon Apr 7 19:10:01 2025
    Package: monitorix
    Severity: normal

    Dear Maintainer,

    As reported in https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/monitorix_ynh/issues/77 it seems that monitorix needs to be adjusted to be able to connect to MariaDB instead of MySQL.

    If I'm not mistaken this applies to the Debian package and not to the derived version provided by YunoHost maintainers.

    The dependencies probably need an adjustment to include libdbd-mariadb-perl (suggested ?) and the source for the connection string needs to be adjusted (see patch at https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/monitorix_ynh/issues/77#issuecomment-2782379357)

    Hope this helps,

    I just tested and it seems to work fine with libdbd-mysql-perl
    installed and MariaDB.

    Unless you have a configuration where this does not work, I don't think
    we need to change the URI in the mysql.pm file or switch to libdbd- mariadb-perl.

    I can certainly add libdbd-mariadb-perl (and libdbd-pg-perl) to
    Suggests to hint for their installation.

    Let me know what you think,

    Best,

    Mmm, I meant libdbd-mysql-perl here, sorry.

    Hi.

    Thanks for caring.

    Indeed, it seems to be working fine by juste adding the libdbd-mysql-perl package.

    I was probably confused by the fact that I saw that we only had a MariaDB install running.

    Sorry about the mess.

    I'll revert my changes to the .pm code.

    Thanks.

    Best regards,
