Public bug reported: Hello
Recently I have updated mydumper to latest version from master branch https://github.com/maxbube/mydumper And I noted that mydumper has stopped to read saved password in config files. How to repeat: # Safe password in .mylogin.cnf $ mysql_config_editor set --password # Test that password is working $ mysql --host=127.0.0.1 mysql -NBe"select 1" 1 # Try to make mydumper backup $ mydumper --host=127.0.0.1 --database=mysql --no-data --outputdir=/tmp/test ** (mydumper:25094): CRITICAL **: Error connecting to database: Access denied for user 'root'@'127.0.0.1' (using password: NO) I have tested with centos 7.2 x64, mysql community 5.6.34.
