Changes in MySQL Enterprise Backup 8.0.43 (2025-07-22, General Availability)

Note

These release notes were created with the assistance of MySQL HeatWave GenAI.

MySQL Enterprise Backup 8.0.43 is the latest bugfix release for MySQL Enterprise Backup 8.0, and supports MySQL Server 8.0.43 only. For earlier versions of MySQL 8.0, use the MySQL Enterprise Backup version with the same version number as the server. For later versions of MySQL, use the supported versions of MySQL Enterprise Backup as specified in the MySQL Enterprise Backup User's Guide having the corresponding version number.

Bugs Fixed

• When a TTS image backup taken with full-locking was restored by streaming the image to mysqlbackup, the restore failed due to a tail magic mismatch. (Bug #37196546)

• After a backup was finished, the values of the server's status variables Com_stmt_prepare and Com_stmt_close did not match. It was because mysqlbackup, after using prepared statements to query the server, closed its connection to the server prematurely. With this fix, Com_stmt_close is also incremented before mysqlbackup disconnects from the server. (Bug #34624351)
