Percona Server for MySQL 5.6Percona is glad to announce the release of Percona Server for MySQL 5.6.43-84.3 on January 29, 2019 (Downloads are available here and from the Percona Software Repositories).

This release merges changes of MySQL 5.6.43, including all the bug fixes in it. Percona Server for MySQL 5.6.43-84.3 is now the current GA release in the 5.6 series. All of Percona’s software is open-source and free.

Bugs Fixed

  • A sequence of LOCK TABLES FOR BACKUP and STOP SLAVE SQL_THREAD could cause replication to be blocked and not possible to be restarted normally. Bug fixed #4758 (upstream #93649).
  • http was replaced with https in http://bugs.percona.com in server crash messages. Bug fixed #4855.
  • Wrong query results could be received in semi-join sub queries with materialization-scan that allowed inner tables of different semi-join nests to interleave. Bug fixed #4907 (upstream bug #92809).
  • The audit logs could be corrupted due to an invalid size of the audit log file when audit_log_rotations was changed at runtime. Bug fixed #4950.
  • There was a typo in mysqld_safe.sh: trottling was replaced with throttling. Bug fixed #240. Thanks to Michael Coburn for the patch.

Hi Dinesh and Francis, before updating or installing Percona Server 5.6. Please update your percona-release package. This will update the system to include our latest public signing key.

sudo yum update percona-release

Thanks for responding David, but yum update percona-release did not work for me and it still gives the same error
