MariaDB Enterprise Server and Cluster 5.5.45 Release Notes and Changelog

Release date: 26 Oct 2015

MariaDB Enterprise Server 5.5.45 Release Notes

This version of MariaDB Enterprise Server is built off MariaDB 5.5.45. We are now providing only 64-bit x86 (x86-64) linux packages, 32-bit x86 Linux packages have been discontinued. We have ended support for Fedora 19, Fedora 20, OpenSuse 13.1 and Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid) packages.

In most respects MariaDB Enterprise will work exactly as MySQL: all commands, interfaces, libraries and APIs that exist in MySQL also exist in MariaDB.

Noteable Changes

MariaDB 5.5.45 is a maintenance release. It includes several bugfixes and updates, including from MySQL 5.5.45. Notable updates include:

MariaDB Enterprise Server Profile-Guide Optimization (PGO) 5.5.45 Release Notes

This version of MariaDB Enterprise Server is built off MariaDB Enterprise Server 5.5.45. MariaDB Enterprise Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO) packages at this time are available for CentOS 6 & 7 and RHEL 6 & 7, Ubuntu 14.04 for the x86_64 architecture. MariaDB Enterprise PGO packages are in a separate repository from the main MariaDB Enterprise repository. There are no packages made available at this time for POWER 8.

Before you begin

Please note that you can only have either regular binaries or PGO binaries installed on a server - they both cannot coexist at the same time on a server. Also, you cannot have MariaDB Enterprise Cluster binaries and MariaDB Enterprise Server PGO binaries installed on a server at the same time. We suggest you test these new PGO packages first in a non-production environment to check the benefit for your own load first. We’re interested in your feedback about performance measurements and findings. If you are interested in working with us to create packages for your specific profile, please contact us

MariaDB Enterprise Cluster 5.5.45 Release Notes

This version of MariaDB Enterprise Cluster is built off MariaDB Galera Cluster 5.5.45 and is mainly an upgrade to benefit from many fixes and improvements in MariaDB Galera 5.5.44, including some backported fixes, as detailed in the changelog.

Updates and fixes in this version

  • This release is mainly a bug-fix release.
  • The Galera library used by MariaDB Galera Cluster and included in the MariaDB repositories is currently at version 25.3.9.
  • CREATE/ALTER VIEW commands were not replicated properly if ALGORITHM clause was missing. (MDEV-8464)
  • RENAME TABLE command was getting replicated and executed on other nodes even when the user did not have sufficient privileges. (MDEV-8598)

Noteable Changes

  • Running MariaDB Galera Cluster 5.5 and 10.0 nodes in a cluster is not supported (MDEV-6257)
  • This version of MariaDB Galera Cluster supports wsrep API v25 which means MariaDB Galera Cluster can be used with either a 25.2.x or 25.3.x Galera wsrep provider. A 25.3.x wsrep provider is included in the MariaDB repositories and is also available from the downloads page.

Note: If Galera 25.2.x and 25.3.x are both being used in the cluster, MariaDB with Galera 25.3.x must be started with wsrep_provider_options='socket.checksum=1' in order to make it backward compatible with Galera v2. Galera wsrep providers other than 25.3.x or 25.2.x are not supported.
