Description:
Scripts generates log file at /var/log/mysqld-%I.log if you use both logfile options.

log_error = /var/log/mysqld/<name>.err
general_log_file = /var/log/mysqld/<name>.log

How to repeat:
Use options log_error & genral_log_file.

bash -xv /usr/bin/mysqld_pre_systemd instance name

called in function:get_option()
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf.d/inst1.cnf mysqld|grep -P '^--(general[-_]+|log[-_]+)+(file|error)+( )?='

would find both but the script uses only the last (tail -n1)

called in install_db():
 $log = get_option ....

Hi,

I'm not sure what is considered bug here? Both files will be created but they will be used for different logging content.

all best
