I am restoring an incremental backup with ZRM server on mysql database. I am having blob data in the tables. The incremental backup not getting restored and giving mysql error unknown command '\0'.

Tried changing the max_allowed_packet_size to 1 GB and also getting the issue. Checked the ZRM configuration for adding --hex-blob but did of no use.

Error after restoring the backup with --verbose:

  • Use `--verbose` to see what's going on. – quanta Feb 22 '13 at 09:59
  • I have edited the question with --verbose option for restoring database. Sorry for the late edit @Quanta – Viswanath Mar 26 '13 at 08:33
  • Which mysql verion are you running on the client side? – quanta Mar 30 '13 at 14:27
  • Mysql version is 5.5.20. Currently we have changed to logical backup where we have got the option `--extra-mysqldump-options="--hex-blob --skip-extended-insert"` and configured in the `mysq-zrm.conf` file. Testing this option which may help us for future errors, but still did not get any solution for restoring the backups taken before. – Viswanath Apr 01 '13 at 06:04

We did not get any solution to restore the taken blob data backup causing Unknown command error. For avoiding this restore error we have added extra-mysqldump-options="--hex-blob --skip-extended-insert" in mysql-zrm.conf file.

Hope this helps somebody!!
