mysql_secure_installation: command not found

It’s always a good idea to do basic MySQL security measures after installing fresh version of MariaDB server. For this task, I always used “mysql_secure_installation” command, which was part of installation. Some time ago, I’ve got stucked when trying to do so on MariaDB version 10.7. After some searching around, I guess command was changed.

[root@server ~]# mysql_secure_installation
-bash: mysql_secure_installation: command not found

This is a correct way on newer MariaDB versions:

root@server ~]# mariadb-secure-installation
NOTE: RUNNING ALL PARTS OF THIS SCRIPT IS RECOMMENDED FOR ALL MariaDB
SERVERS IN PRODUCTION USE!  PLEASE READ EACH STEP CAREFULLY!

Moodle – mysql/mariadb Antelope to Barracuda installation warning

I tried to install Moodle 3.5.2 on cPanel server and got this warning in installation process:

“Your database has tables using Antelope as the file format. You are recommended to convert the tables to the Barracuda file format. See the documentation Administration via command line for details of a tool for converting InnoDB tables to Barracuda.”

Because this was production hosting server, I was unable to just globally change mysql settings. To be able to proceed installation, open config.php file of your moodle and change variable dbcollation like this:

dbcollation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci'
