Hi, Can you try to replace TYPE= with ENGINE= in the innobackup script and see if the problem is gone? Assuming you are using the latest innobackup-1.5.0 from http://www.innodb.com/download/innobackup-1.5.0 you should only change TYPE= with ENGINE= on line 959 in that script: mysql_send "CREATE TABLE ibbackup_binlog_marker(a INT) TYPE=INNODB;"; Thank you!

This is a bug in the innobackup Perl script. It should use 'ENGINE='. I believe the ibbackup binary program still prints the right position. Assigning this to Pekka.

This was, of course, a simple change to the innobackup Perl script. You can find the corrected file on the InnoDB website: http://www.innodb.com/downloads/.

Description: the first part of the output, showing version, etc: InnoDB Backup Utility v1.4.0; Copyright 2003-2007 Innobase Oy This software is published under the GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2, June 1991. IMPORTANT: Please check that the backup run completes successfully. At the end of a successful backup run innobackup prints "innobackup completed OK!". innobackup: Using mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.67, for redhat-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.1 innobackup: Using mysql server version 5.0.67-community-log innobackup: Using InnoDB Hot Backup version 3.0.0 The important part of the output: innobackup: MySQL binlog position: filename 'Warning', position (Code 1287): 'TYPE=storage_engine' is deprecated; use 'ENGINE=storage_engine' instead 090210 03:55:04 innobackup: innobackup completed OK! And after the backup is done: [mysql@db3:~] more ibbackup_binlog_info Warning (Code 1287): 'TYPE=storage_engine' is deprecated; use 'ENGINE=storage_engine' instead Yikes! But what binary log position are we at?!?! How to repeat: This would have been marked critical, only I found the binary log position in a file... [mysql@db3:~] more mysql-stdout innobackup hello 3 innobackup hello 3 innobackup hello 4 innobackup hello 4 innobackup hello 5 innobackup hello 5 Note (Code 1051): Unknown table 'ibbackup_binlog_marker' innobackup hello 6 innobackup hello 6 Warning (Code 1287): 'TYPE=storage_engine' is deprecated; use 'ENGINE=storage_engine' instead innobackup hello 7 innobackup hello 7 innobackup hello 8 innobackup hello 8 innobackup hello 9 innobackup hello 9 innobackup hello 10 innobackup hello 10 innobackup hello 11 innobackup hello 11 File Position Binlog_Do_DB Binlog_Ignore_DB db2-binlog.001980 495985099 innobackup hello 12 innobackup hello 12 innobackup hello 13 innobackup hello 13 innobackup hello 14 innobackup hello 14 Suggested fix: use ENGINE instead of TYPE for the definition of ibbackup_binlog_marker and any other tables ibbackup creates.
