Docker-mariadb unraid

Hello all, i am new to this so appreciate any help you can give me…

i have the lscr.io/linuxserver/mariadb docker running on my unraid server. while it seems to be doing its job, my mariadb container appdata folder is growing huge. i have a ton of .err files in there some over a gig.

the have the warning:

2024-03-09 8:56:14 3 [Warning] Aborted connection 3 to db: ‘unconnected’ user: ‘unauthenticated’ host: ‘localhost’ (This connection closed normally without authentication)
2024-03-09 8:56:14 4 [Warning] Access denied for user ‘root’@‘localhost’ (using password: YES)
2024-03-09 8:56:58 6 [Warning] IP address ‘172.17.0.1’ could not be resolved: Name does not resolve
2024-03-09 8:56:58 5 [Warning] IP address ‘172.17.0.1’ could not be resolved: Name does not resolve
2024-03-09 8:56:58 7 [Warning] IP address ‘172.17.0.1’ could not be resolved: Name does not resolve

then they are FILLED with the errors over and over:

2024-03-05 14:09:17 5 [ERROR] Incorrect definition of table mysql.column_stats: expected column ‘hist_type’ at position 9 to have type enum(‘SINGLE_PREC_HB’,‘DOUBLE_PREC_HB’,‘JSON_HB’), found type enum(‘SINGLE_PREC_HB’,‘DOUBLE_PREC_HB’).
2024-03-05 14:09:17 5 [ERROR] Incorrect definition of table mysql.column_stats: expected column ‘histogram’ at position 10 to have type longblob, found type varbinary(255).

are you aware of a way to fix this? if not can you point me in the direction, thank you!

Unfortunately, we support the container, not the application inside the container. You’re welcome to join our discord and seek best-effort help in #other-support. You would need to share what is using the database to get much help though. With that said, if you’re having a bunch of errors, I would just restore a backup from before the errors began.

thank you for the response. i am new to this so what is the difference between the container and the application? thank you!

to put it simply, the container is a box, the application is a thing inside the box. if the box breaks, we’ll fix it. if the thing breaks you ask the people who make the thing for help
