NAME¶
mysqlbinlog - utility for processing binary log filesSYNOPSIS¶
mysqlbinlog
[ options] log_file ...
DESCRIPTION¶
The server's binary log consists of files containing “events” that describe modifications to database contents. The server writes these files in binary format. To display their contents in text format, use the mysqlbinlog utility. You can also use mysqlbinlog to display the contents of relay log files written by a slave server in a replication setup because relay logs have the same format as binary logs. The binary log and relay log are discussed further in Section 5.2.4, “The Binary Log”, and Section 17.2.2, “Replication Relay and Status Logs”. Invoke mysqlbinlog like this:shell> mysqlbinlog [options] log_file ...
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.0000003
# at 141 #100309 9:28:36 server id 123 end_log_pos 245 Query thread_id=3350 exec_time=11 error_code=0
•--help, -?
Display a help message and exit.
•--base64-output[=value]
This option determines when events should be displayed encoded as base-64
strings using BINLOG statements. The option has these permissible values (not
case sensitive):
For examples that show the effect of --base64-output and --verbose
on row event output, see the section called “MYSQLBINLOG ROW EVENT
DISPLAY”.
•AUTO ("automatic") or UNSPEC
("unspecified") displays BINLOG statements automatically when
necessary (that is, for format description events and row events). If no
--base64-output option is given, the effect is the same as
--base64-output=AUTO.
Note
Automatic BINLOG display is the only safe behavior if you intend to use the
output of mysqlbinlog to re-execute binary log file contents. The other
option values are intended only for debugging or testing purposes because they
may produce output that does not include all events in executable form.
•ALWAYS displays BINLOG statements
whenever possible. If the --base64-output option is given without a
value, the effect is the same as --base64-output=ALWAYS.
Note
Changes to replication in MySQL 5.6 make output generated by this option
unusable, so ALWAYS is deprecated as of MySQL 5.5.8 and will be an invalid
value in MySQL 5.6
•NEVER causes BINLOG statements not to
be displayed. mysqlbinlog exits with an error if a row event is found
that must be displayed using BINLOG.
•DECODE-ROWS specifies to
mysqlbinlog that you intend for row events to be decoded and displayed
as commented SQL statements by also specifying the --verbose option.
Like NEVER, DECODE-ROWS suppresses display of BINLOG statements, but unlike
NEVER, it does not exit with an error if a row event is found.
•--bind-address=ip_address
On a computer having multiple network interfaces, use this option to select
which interface to use for connecting to the MySQL server.
This option is supported beginning with MySQL 5.5.8.
•--character-sets-dir=dir_name
The directory where character sets are installed. See Section 10.5,
“Character Set Configuration”.
•--database=db_name,
-d db_name
This option causes mysqlbinlog to output entries from the binary log
(local log only) that occur while db_name is been selected as the
default database by USE.
The --database option for mysqlbinlog is similar to the
--binlog-do-db option for mysqld, but can be used to specify
only one database. If --database is given multiple times, only the last
instance is used.
The effects of this option depend on whether the statement-based or row-based
logging format is in use, in the same way that the effects of
--binlog-do-db depend on whether statement-based or row-based logging
is in use.
Statement-based logging. The --database option works as follows:
Suppose that the binary log was created by executing these statements using
statement-based-logging:
mysqlbinlog --database=test does not output the first two INSERT
statements because there is no default database. It outputs the three INSERT
statements following USE test, but not the three INSERT statements following
USE db2.
mysqlbinlog --database=db2 does not output the first two INSERT
statements because there is no default database. It does not output the three
INSERT statements following USE test, but does output the three INSERT
statements following USE db2.
Row-based logging. mysqlbinlog outputs only entries that change
tables belonging to db_name. The default database has no effect on
this. Suppose that the binary log just described was created using row-based
logging rather than statement-based logging. mysqlbinlog
--database=test outputs only those entries that modify t1 in the test
database, regardless of whether USE was issued or what the default database
is. If a server is running with binlog_format set to MIXED and you want it to
be possible to use mysqlbinlog with the --database option, you
must ensure that tables that are modified are in the database selected by USE.
(In particular, no cross-database updates should be used.)
Note
Prior to MySQL Cluster NDB 7.2.2, this option did not work correctly with MySQL
Cluster tables unless, unless the binary log was generated using
--log-bin-use-v1-row-events=0. (Bug #13067813)
•While db_name is the default
database, statements are output whether they modify tables in db_name
or a different database.
•Unless db_name is selected as
the default database, statements are not output, even if they modify tables in
db_name.
•There is an exception for CREATE
DATABASE, ALTER DATABASE, and DROP DATABASE. The database being created,
altered, or dropped is considered to be the default database when
determining whether to output the statement.
INSERT INTO test.t1 (i) VALUES(100); INSERT INTO db2.t2 (j) VALUES(200); USE test; INSERT INTO test.t1 (i) VALUES(101); INSERT INTO t1 (i) VALUES(102); INSERT INTO db2.t2 (j) VALUES(201); USE db2; INSERT INTO test.t1 (i) VALUES(103); INSERT INTO db2.t2 (j) VALUES(202); INSERT INTO t2 (j) VALUES(203);
•--debug[=debug_options],
-# [debug_options]
Write a debugging log. A typical debug_options string is d:t:o,
file_name. The default is d:t:o,/tmp/mysqlbinlog.trace.
•--debug-check
Print some debugging information when the program exits.
•--debug-info
Print debugging information and memory and CPU usage statistics when the program
exits.
•--default-auth=plugin
A hint about the client-side authentication plugin to use. See
Section 6.3.6, “Pluggable Authentication”.
This option was added in MySQL 5.5.10.
•--defaults-extra-file=file_name
Read this option file after the global option file but (on Unix) before the user
option file. If the file does not exist or is otherwise inaccessible, an error
occurs. Before MySQL 5.5.8, file_name must be the full path name to the
file. As of MySQL 5.5.8, the name is interpreted relative to the current
directory if given as a relative path name.
•--defaults-file=file_name
Use only the given option file. If the file does not exist or is otherwise
inaccessible, an error occurs. Before MySQL 5.5.8, file_name must be
the full path name to the file. As of MySQL 5.5.8, the name is interpreted
relative to the current directory if given as a relative path name.
•--defaults-group-suffix=str
Read not only the usual option groups, but also groups with the usual names and
a suffix of str. For example, mysqlbinlog normally reads the
[client] and [mysqlbinlog] groups. If the
--defaults-group-suffix=_other option is given, mysqlbinlog also
reads the [client_other] and [mysqlbinlog_other] groups.
•--disable-log-bin, -D
Disable binary logging. This is useful for avoiding an endless loop if you use
the --to-last-log option and are sending the output to the same MySQL
server. This option also is useful when restoring after a crash to avoid
duplication of the statements you have logged.
This option requires that you have the SUPER privilege. It causes
mysqlbinlog to include a SET sql_log_bin = 0 statement in its output to
disable binary logging of the remaining output. The SET statement is
ineffective unless you have the SUPER privilege.
•--force-if-open, -F
Read binary log files even if they are open or were not closed properly.
•--force-read, -f
With this option, if mysqlbinlog reads a binary log event that it does
not recognize, it prints a warning, ignores the event, and continues. Without
this option, mysqlbinlog stops if it reads such an event.
•--hexdump, -H
Display a hex dump of the log in comments, as described in the section called
“MYSQLBINLOG HEX DUMP FORMAT”. The hex output can be helpful for
replication debugging.
•--host=host_name,
-h host_name
Get the binary log from the MySQL server on the given host.
•--local-load=dir_name,
-l dir_name
Prepare local temporary files for LOAD DATA INFILE in the specified directory.
Important
These temporary files are not automatically removed by mysqlbinlog or any
other MySQL program.
•--no-defaults
Do not read any option files. If program startup fails due to reading unknown
options from an option file, --no-defaults can be used to prevent them
from being read.
•--offset=N, -o
N
Skip the first N entries in the log.
•--password[=password],
-p[password]
The password to use when connecting to the server. If you use the short option
form ( -p), you cannot have a space between the option and the
password. If you omit the password value following the
--password or -p option on the command line, mysqlbinlog
prompts for one.
Specifying a password on the command line should be considered insecure. See
Section 6.1.2.1, “End-User Guidelines for Password Security”.
You can use an option file to avoid giving the password on the command
line.
•--plugin-dir=dir_name
The directory in which to look for plugins. Specify this option if the
--default-auth option is used to specify an authentication plugin but
mysqlbinlog does not find it. See Section 6.3.6, “Pluggable
Authentication”.
This option was added in MySQL 5.5.10.
•--port=port_num,
-P port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for connecting to a remote server.
•--position=N
Deprecated. Use --start-position instead. --position was removed
in MySQL 5.5.3.
•--print-defaults
Print the program name and all options that it gets from option files.
•--protocol={TCP|SOCKET|PIPE|MEMORY}
The connection protocol to use for connecting to the server. It is useful when
the other connection parameters normally would cause a protocol to be used
other than the one you want. For details on the permissible values, see
Section 4.2.2, “Connecting to the MySQL Server”.
•--read-from-remote-server,
-R
Read the binary log from a MySQL server rather than reading a local log file.
Any connection parameter options are ignored unless this option is given as
well. These options are --host, --password, --port,
--protocol, --socket, and --user.
This option requires that the remote server be running. It works only for binary
log files on the remote server, not relay log files.
•--result-file=name,
-r name
Direct output to the given file.
•--server-id=id
Display only those events created by the server having the given server
ID.
•--server-id-bits=N
Use only the first N bits of the server_id to identify the server. If the
binary log was written by a mysqld with server-id-bits set to less than
32 and user data stored in the most significant bit, running
mysqlbinlog with --server-id-bits set to 32 enables this data to
be seen.
This option is supported only by the versions of mysqlbinlog supplied
with the MySQL Cluster distribution, or built from the MySQL Cluster
sources.
•--set-charset=charset_name
Add a SET NAMES charset_name statement to the output to specify the
character set to be used for processing log files.
•--shared-memory-base-name=name
On Windows, the shared-memory name to use, for connections made using shared
memory to a local server. The default value is MYSQL. The shared-memory name
is case sensitive.
The server must be started with the --shared-memory option to enable
shared-memory connections.
•--short-form, -s
Display only the statements contained in the log, without any extra information
or row-based events. This is for testing only, and should not be used in
production systems.
•--socket=path,
-S path
For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use, or, on Windows, the
name of the named pipe to use.
•--start-datetime=datetime
Start reading the binary log at the first event having a timestamp equal to or
later than the datetime argument. The datetime value is relative
to the local time zone on the machine where you run mysqlbinlog. The
value should be in a format accepted for the DATETIME or TIMESTAMP data types.
For example:
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery. See Section 7.3,
“Example Backup and Recovery Strategy”.
shell> mysqlbinlog --start-datetime="2005-12-25 11:25:56" binlog.000003
•--start-position=N,
-j N
Start reading the binary log at the first event having a position equal to or
greater than N. This option applies to the first log file named on the
command line.
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery. See Section 7.3,
“Example Backup and Recovery Strategy”.
•--stop-datetime=datetime
Stop reading the binary log at the first event having a timestamp equal to or
later than the datetime argument. This option is useful for
point-in-time recovery. See the description of the --start-datetime
option for information about the datetime value.
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery. See Section 7.3,
“Example Backup and Recovery Strategy”.
•--stop-position=N
Stop reading the binary log at the first event having a position equal to or
greater than N. This option applies to the last log file named on the
command line.
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery. See Section 7.3,
“Example Backup and Recovery Strategy”.
•--to-last-log, -t
Do not stop at the end of the requested binary log from a MySQL server, but
rather continue printing until the end of the last binary log. If you send the
output to the same MySQL server, this may lead to an endless loop. This option
requires --read-from-remote-server.
•--user=user_name,
-u user_name
The MySQL user name to use when connecting to a remote server.
•--verbose, -v
Reconstruct row events and display them as commented SQL statements. If this
option is given twice, the output includes comments to indicate column data
types and some metadata.
For examples that show the effect of --base64-output and --verbose
on row event output, see the section called “MYSQLBINLOG ROW EVENT
DISPLAY”.
•--version, -V
Display version information and exit.
In MySQL 5.5, the version number shown for mysqlbinlog is always
3.3.
You can also set the following variable by using
--var_name=value syntax:
•open_files_limit
Specify the number of open file descriptors to reserve.
You can pipe the output of mysqlbinlog into the mysql client to
execute the events contained in the binary log. This technique is used to
recover from a crash when you have an old backup (see Section 7.5,
“Point-in-Time (Incremental) Recovery Using the Binary Log”). For
example:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 | mysql -u root -p
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.[0-9]* | mysql -u root -p
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 > tmpfile shell> ... edit tmpfile ... shell> mysql -u root -p < tmpfile
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 | mysql -u root -p # DANGER!! shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000002 | mysql -u root -p # DANGER!!
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 binlog.000002 | mysql -u root -p
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 > /tmp/statements.sql shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000002 >> /tmp/statements.sql shell> mysql -u root -p -e "source /tmp/statements.sql"
MYSQLBINLOG HEX DUMP FORMAT¶
The --hexdump option causes mysqlbinlog to produce a hex dump of the binary log contents:shell> mysqlbinlog --hexdump master-bin.000001
/*!40019 SET @@session.max_insert_delayed_threads=0*/; /*!50003 SET @OLD_COMPLETION_TYPE=@@COMPLETION_TYPE,COMPLETION_TYPE=0*/; # at 4 #051024 17:24:13 server id 1 end_log_pos 98 # Position Timestamp Type Master ID Size Master Pos Flags # 00000004 9d fc 5c 43 0f 01 00 00 00 5e 00 00 00 62 00 00 00 00 00 # 00000017 04 00 35 2e 30 2e 31 35 2d 64 65 62 75 67 2d 6c |..5.0.15.debug.l| # 00000027 6f 67 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |og..............| # 00000037 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| # 00000047 00 00 00 00 9d fc 5c 43 13 38 0d 00 08 00 12 00 |.......C.8......| # 00000057 04 04 04 04 12 00 00 4b 00 04 1a |.......K...| # Start: binlog v 4, server v 5.0.15-debug-log created 051024 17:24:13 # at startup ROLLBACK;
•Position: The byte position within the
log file.
•Timestamp: The event timestamp. In the
example shown, '9d fc 5c 43' is the representation of '051024 17:24:13' in
hexadecimal.
•Type: The event type code. In the
example shown, '0f' indicates a FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_EVENT. The following table
lists the possible type codes.
Type | Name | Meaning |
00 | UNKNOWN_EVENT | This event should never be present in the log. |
01 | START_EVENT_V3 | This indicates the start of a log file written by MySQL 4 or earlier. |
02 | QUERY_EVENT | The most common type of events. These contain statements executed on the master. |
03 | STOP_EVENT | Indicates that master has stopped. |
04 | ROTATE_EVENT | Written when the master switches to a new log file. |
05 | INTVAR_EVENT | Used for AUTO_INCREMENT values or when the LAST_INSERT_ID() function is used in the statement. |
06 | LOAD_EVENT | Used for LOAD DATA INFILE in MySQL 3.23. |
07 | SLAVE_EVENT | Reserved for future use. |
08 | CREATE_FILE_EVENT | Used for LOAD DATA INFILE statements. This indicates the start of execution of such a statement. A temporary file is created on the slave. Used in MySQL 4 only. |
09 | APPEND_BLOCK_EVENT | Contains data for use in a LOAD DATA INFILE statement. The data is stored in the temporary file on the slave. |
0a | EXEC_LOAD_EVENT | Used for LOAD DATA INFILE statements. The contents of the temporary file is stored in the table on the slave. Used in MySQL 4 only. |
0b | DELETE_FILE_EVENT | Rollback of a LOAD DATA INFILE statement. The temporary file should be deleted on the slave. |
0c | NEW_LOAD_EVENT | Used for LOAD DATA INFILE in MySQL 4 and earlier. |
0d | RAND_EVENT | Used to send information about random values if the RAND() function is used in the statement. |
0e | USER_VAR_EVENT | Used to replicate user variables. |
0f | FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_EVENT | This indicates the start of a log file written by MySQL 5 or later. |
10 | XID_EVENT | Event indicating commit of an XA transaction. |
11 | BEGIN_LOAD_QUERY_EVENT | Used for LOAD DATA INFILE statements in MySQL 5 and later. |
12 | EXECUTE_LOAD_QUERY_EVENT | Used for LOAD DATA INFILE statements in MySQL 5 and later. |
13 | TABLE_MAP_EVENT | Information about a table definition. Used in MySQL 5.1.5 and later. |
14 | PRE_GA_WRITE_ROWS_EVENT | Row data for a single table that should be created. Used in MySQL 5.1.5 to 5.1.17. |
15 | PRE_GA_UPDATE_ROWS_EVENT | Row data for a single table that needs to be updated. Used in MySQL 5.1.5 to 5.1.17. |
16 | PRE_GA_DELETE_ROWS_EVENT | Row data for a single table that should be deleted. Used in MySQL 5.1.5 to 5.1.17. |
17 | WRITE_ROWS_EVENT | Row data for a single table that should be created. Used in MySQL 5.1.18 and later. |
18 | UPDATE_ROWS_EVENT | Row data for a single table that needs to be updated. Used in MySQL 5.1.18 and later. |
19 | DELETE_ROWS_EVENT | Row data for a single table that should be deleted. Used in MySQL 5.1.18 and later. |
1a | INCIDENT_EVENT | Something out of the ordinary happened. Added in MySQL 5.1.18. |
•Master ID: The server ID of the master
that created the event.
•Size: The size in bytes of the
event.
•Master Pos: The position of the next
event in the original master log file.
•Flags: 16 flags. Currently, the
following flags are used. The others are reserved for future use.
Flag | Name | Meaning |
01 | LOG_EVENT_BINLOG_IN_USE_F | Log file correctly closed. (Used only in FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_EVENT.) If this flag is set (if the flags are, for example, '01 00') in a FORMAT_DESCRIPTION_EVENT, the log file has not been properly closed. Most probably this is because of a master crash (for example, due to power failure). |
02 | Reserved for future use. | |
04 | LOG_EVENT_THREAD_SPECIFIC_F | Set if the event is dependent on the connection it was executed in (for example, '04 00'), for example, if the event uses temporary tables. |
08 | LOG_EVENT_SUPPRESS_USE_F | Set in some circumstances when the event is not dependent on the default database. |
MYSQLBINLOG ROW EVENT DISPLAY¶
The following examples illustrate how mysqlbinlog displays row events that specify data modifications. These correspond to events with the WRITE_ROWS_EVENT, UPDATE_ROWS_EVENT, and DELETE_ROWS_EVENT type codes. The --base64-output=DECODE-ROWS and --verbose options may be used to affect row event output. Suppose that the server is using row-based binary logging and that you execute the following sequence of statements:CREATE TABLE t ( id INT NOT NULL, name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL, date DATE NULL ) ENGINE = InnoDB; START TRANSACTION; INSERT INTO t VALUES(1, 'apple', NULL); UPDATE t SET name = 'pear', date = '2009-01-01' WHERE id = 1; DELETE FROM t WHERE id = 1; COMMIT;

•The original column names are lost and
replaced by @ N, where N is a column number.
•Character set information is not
available in the binary log, which affects string column display:
Proper interpretation of row events requires the information from the format
description event at the beginning of the binary log. Because
mysqlbinlog does not know in advance whether the rest of the log
contains row events, by default it displays the format description event using
a BINLOG statement in the initial part of the output.
If the binary log is known not to contain any events requiring a BINLOG
statement (that is, no row events), the --base64-output=NEVER option
can be used to prevent this header from being written.
•There is no distinction made between
corresponding binary and nonbinary string types (BINARY and CHAR, VARBINARY
and VARCHAR, BLOB and TEXT). The output uses a data type of STRING for
fixed-length strings and VARSTRING for variable-length strings.
•For multibyte character sets, the
maximum number of bytes per character is not present in the binary log, so the
length for string types is displayed in bytes rather than in characters. For
example, STRING(4) will be used as the data type for values from either of
these column types:
CHAR(4) CHARACTER SET latin1 CHAR(2) CHARACTER SET ucs2
•Due to the storage format for events of
type UPDATE_ROWS_EVENT, UPDATE statements are displayed with the WHERE clause
preceding the SET clause.
