I am trying to run mysql 5.7 in kubernetes and got this error
mysql: unknown option '--"'
My database.yaml looks like this
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: app-db
labels:
app: app-db
spec:
containers:
- name: mysql
image: mysql:5.7
ports:
- name: mysql-port
containerPort: 3306
env:
- name: MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: app-secrets
key: rootPassword
- name: MYSQL_USER
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: app-secrets
key: username
- name: MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: app-secrets
key: password
- name: MYSQL_DATABASE
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: app-secrets
key: defaultDatabaseMaybe I missed something?
I tried to switch versions, tried to use samples from the official Kubernetes site - nothing works for me.
The last logs with error:

mysql: unknown option '--"'The YAML configuration is quite simple. I guess the problem might lie in the app-secrets.
Please disable all envs and then add one by one, which could help you find out the problem settings.
In case your secrets are not correct, you can set env directly, such as:
env:
- name: MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD
value: somePassYouLikeBecause many add Kubernetes secrets by copying manually generated base64. Make sure no spaces after the base64 string itself copied. Go to Kubernetes dashboard to check the length of the secrets.
I ran into the same issue and after a lot of frustrating debugging I finally solved it.
The problem was that I created my secrets with the echo 'secret' | base64 command and the echo command automatically inserts a trailing newline.
Use echo -n 'secret' | base64 instead. ✔️
Unfortunately this was not at all what I expected and therefore I didn't notice that there was a line break in the log output. Hopefully this can help some people who also use the echo command to encode to base64.
I looked at the entrypont.sh script for this container 👀. And the error is happening here in the 'Creating database' section:
# Creates a custom database and user if specified
if [ -n "$MYSQL_DATABASE" ]; then
mysql_note "Creating database ${MYSQL_DATABASE}" 👈
docker_process_sql --database=mysql <<<"CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS \`$MYSQL_DATABASE\` ;" 👈
fi
if [ -n "$MYSQL_USER" ] && [ -n "$MYSQL_PASSWORD" ]; then
mysql_note "Creating user ${MYSQL_USER}"
...
docker_process_sql() {
passfileArgs=()
if [ '--dont-use-mysql-root-password' = "$1" ]; then
passfileArgs+=( "$1" )
shift
fi
# args sent in can override this db, since they will be later in the command
if [ -n "$MYSQL_DATABASE" ]; then
set -- --database="$MYSQL_DATABASE" "$@"
fi
mysql --defaults-extra-file=<( _mysql_passfile "${passfileArgs[@]}") --protocol=socket -uroot -hlocalhost --socket="${SOCKET}" "$@"
}
I also tested with plain docker and it works fine with this:
docker run --name some-mysql -d -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw -e MYSQL_DATABASE="app" -e MYSQL_USER="user1" mysql:5.7So most likely there is something corrupted in your secrets 💀.
