Query logging
Logging all queries
We can log all queries that are received by server (even that have incorrect syntax) using 'log' option in '[mysqld]' section
[mysqld] log
This can be very helpful on development machines for debugging.
Logging slow queries
Logging all queries can be problematic on production servers. Hence on production servers we can use:
long_query_time = 5 log_slow_queries log_long_format
Here:
- 'log_slow_queries' is used to log all queries which take more than 'long_query_time' seconds to execute. The minimum value of this parameter is 2, as mysql measures time with second accuracy.
- 'log_long_format' will log additional information like which queries are not using indexes at all or not using indexes properly, etc.
More information about configurable parameters of mysql can be found in '/usr/share/doc/mysql-server-<version>'.
