Hi I've been playing with https://camel.apache.org/components/3.14.x/debezium-mysql-component.html with spring boot 2.6.2 and the latest (8.0?) version of mysql (as a docker container from here https://hub.docker.com/_/mysql, with mysql setting as specified here https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/stable/connectors/mysql.html#setting-up-mysql
I was unable to make this work: When using the SPRING BOOT AUTO-CONFIGURATION starter - camel-debezium-mysql-starter 3.14.0 , i was seeing very little boot console output - just the line: "ERROR --- [ebeziumConsumer] io.debezium.embedded.EmbeddedEngine : null" I swapped to using <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId> <artifactId>camel-debezium-mysql</artifactId> <version>3.14.0</version> </dependency> and <dependency> <groupId>mysql</groupId> <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId> <version>8.0.27</version> </dependency> and then got a more verbose error: .... Caused by: com.mysql.cj.exceptions.UnableToConnectException: Public Key Retrieval is not allowed I was not sure how to solve this but googling led me here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55060693/debezium-mysql-error-the-connection-password-is-empty where I read: 1) comment - "i'm using camel debezium mysql plugin which uses debezium connectro version 1.3.1.Final, apparently it does not have this property database.allowPublicKeyRetrieval" 2) answer - "As Jiri Pechanec suggested, I changed image: mysql to image: mysql:5.7 in docker-compose.yml file and now it works fine." I myself then moved to mysql:5.7 and the DEBEZIUM MYSQL CONNECTOR worked fine. :) However, when swapping back to the spring boot camel-debezium-mysql-starter 3.14.0 dependency, I got the same "null" error message and a non-working system.. There is little info on the DEBEZIUM MYSQL CONNECTOR page about what versions of mysql/debezium/spring boot this all (last tested) works with, nor any links to working examples. I also looked in https://github.com/apache/camel-spring-boot-examples/search?q=debezium and could not see any examples. sorry, I was wondering what I should do next please? I would like to move to the latest version of mysql, and using the spring boot starter would be nice, although not essential... Best wishes and a HYN. Cheers N
