I must be going blind because i swore there was a MySQL/MariaDB for\plugin for v6 but I can't seem to find it anywhere.  Does anyone know where I can fond one ?

Could try here http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=32227.0 says MySQL in the title but has a link do a mariadb plugin that I've been using until recently.

 

Another option is needos MariaDB docker container. I've just migrated to that from the plugin and everything works like a champ.

Thanks, that's the one I tried with no success.

 

I was hoping to move from 5 to 6 using plugins to make it a quick and easy move. That would give me time to play with docker containers without sacrificing functionality.  Very time poor here.

Ah yes - there are issues with older plugins and the recent betas.

 

I forgot that I had to hack that plugin a bit to get it to work.

 

I've attached my modified version if you want to give it a try. No guarantee it'll work for anyone else. I can't even remember what I changed. It's almost certainly not the latest version - I got it to work so stuck with it until moving to docker the other day.

 

Obviously make sure you have a backup of any data etc before trying it.

 

Rename it to remove the .cfg (stupid work web controls won't let me add it as anything else)

MariaDB-ikosa_64bit.plg.cfg

So, I can't get this plugin to work and have mysql database (xbmc) that I need to get running on unraid6.

I am still so new at this docker stuff.. How do I import my mysql dump into a mariadb database in a docker??

 

Anyone have mysql or mariaDB working on v6 and mind helping?

 

EDIT:  I got the MariaDB docker working with my original mysql database.. sweet!!  My first use of docker!  working good so far!!

I had trouble with this so it was the first plugin that I moved to a docker instance.  The docker plugin works perfect

Can you share your docker file? I am having issues with the one in gfjardim's Docker Plugin - http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=33965.0. Not able to connect to the database.

Okay, did you use the default settings? What network did you pick - bridge or host?

I used the default setting. It was the easiest install I had.

Okay, then is the user and password the default? - user: root  pwd: root

Just trying to figure out how to connect to it so that I can get it setup for XBMC.

I'll have a look when I get home.  I just moved to docker , pointed the default install to my existing MySQL directory and that was it. 

 

This wasn't a new install.

Try to connect using  "mysql -uroot -h 192.168.x.x" from a linux machine that has an sql client installed.

root root looks right to get to the admin portion of the DB.  My XBMC folders have the xbmc xbmc user attached to them.

 

(btw, if you're using the c=docker container you might want to move this discussion to the docker area and not the plugins area.)

 

Then you need to make sure your xbmc advancedsettings.xml has the DB settings in place.  Here's a snip of mine.
