Mroonga 12.07 has been released!

Mroonga is a MySQL storage engine that supports fast fulltext search and geolocation search. It is CJK ready. It uses Groonga as a storage and fulltext search engine.

Mroonga 12.07 has been released!

Changes

The main changes are as follows.

Improvements

  • CentOS, AlmaLinux Added support for MariaDB 10.3.36, 10.4.26, 10.5.17, 10.6.9, 10.7.5 and 10.8.4.

  • CentOS, AlmaLinux Added support for Percona Server 5.7.39-42.

  • CentOS, AlmaLinux Added support for Percona Server 8.0.29-21.

    MySQL 8.0.29 used by Percona Server 8.0.29 has a critical issue. So we do not recommend to use this version.

    See MySQL 8.0.29 Release Notes for details about the issue.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug to fail to install or upgrade Mroonga with install.sql.

    Broken install.sql caused this bug. This bug had occurred since Mroonga 12.06.

  • Fixed a bug that mroonga_command() returns results with hex dump for MySQL 8.0 and above.

    mroonga_command() returns results with a correct character code form this version.

  • AlmaLinux Fixed an installation document for Mroonga on AlmaLinux 8.

Mroonga 12.06 has been released!

Mroonga is a MySQL storage engine that supports fast fulltext search and geolocation search. It is CJK ready. It uses Groonga as a storage and fulltext search engine.

Mroonga 12.06 has been released!

Changes

The main changes are as follows.

Improvements

  • CentOS Added support for MySQL 5.7.39.

  • CentOS, AlmaLinux Added support for MySQL 8.0.39.

% mysql -u root < /usr/share/mroonga/update.sql

    This improvement has changed Mroonga to only require to run install.sql to register to MySQL as before than Mroonga 12.04.

Mroonga 12.04 has been released!

Mroonga is a MySQL storage engine that supports fast fulltext search and geolocation search. It is CJK ready. It uses Groonga as a storage and fulltext search engine.

Mroonga 12.04 has been released!

Changes

The main changes are as follows.

Improvements

  • Server variables Add a new status variable Mroonga_memory_map_size.

    We can get the total memory map size in bytes of Mroonga as below.

      mysql> SHOW STATUS LIKE 'Mroonga_memory_map_size';
  +-------------------------+----------+
  | Variable_name           | Value    |
  +-------------------------+----------+
  | Mroonga_memory_map_size | 83406848 |
  +-------------------------+----------+
  1 row in set (0.00 sec)

    In Windows, If Mroonga uses up physical memory and swap area, Mroonga can't more mapping memory than that. Therefore, we can control properly memory map size by monitoring this value even if the environment does have not enough memory.

  • CentOS, AlmaLinux Added support for Percona Server 8.0.28-19.

  • CentOS, AlmaLinux Added support for Percona Server 5.7.38-41.

  • CentOS, AlmaLinux Added support for MariaDB 10.2.44, 10.3.35, 10.4.25, 10.5.16, 10.6.8, and 10.7.4.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that Mroonga may update failed.

    If this bug occurs, Mroonga is disabled after Mroonga update with such as "apt update". In that case, we install Mroonga manually with the following procedure.

      % mysql -u root < /usr/share/mroonga/install.sql
