1467006 - Explicitly support MariaDB

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, defect)

Description

[Kai Hendry]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/67.0.3396.62 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Using docker compose, bring up a Bugzilla environment:
https://github.com/unee-t/bugzilla-customisation/blob/master/docker-compose.yml#L29

Using https://hub.docker.com/_/mariadb/


Actual results:

bugzilla_1   | Your MySQL v5.5.5-10.3.7-MariaDB-1:10.3.7+maria~jessie is too old. Bugzilla requires version
bugzilla_1   | 5.6.12 or later of MySQL. Please download and install a
bugzilla_1   | newer version.

It would appear from 5.5, MariaDB appends the new version number?



Expected results:

Bugzilla should have been fine with this version.

Is there a way to override the DB check? It's not clear from https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/webtools/bugzilla/checksetup.pl

Proper fix for this is explicit support for MariaDB since they have diverged from MySQL sufficiently enough that they're no longer a drop-in replacement for each other.
