MySQL 8.0.28 is not allowing validate_password variables in /etc/my.cnf
I have looked but don't see a similar issue anywhere. Server OS is Red Hat Linux 8 MySQL version 8.0.28 This section of the my.cnf file issues errors when I try to start mysqld:
validate_password.check_user_name=1
validate_password.dictionary_file=/usr/share/dict/words
validate_password.length=30
validate_password.mixed_case_count=1
validate_password.number_count=1
validate_password.policy=2
validate_password.special_char_count=1
password_reuse_interval=3650
checking my.cnf with mysqld and the --validate-config option:
> mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --validate-config
2022-06-16T13:46:46.323049Z 0 [ERROR] [MY-000067] [Server] unknown variable 'validate_password.dictionary_file=/usr/share/dict/words'.
2022-06-16T13:46:46.323088Z 0 [ERROR] [MY-010119] [Server] Aborting
That is after I commented out the check_user_name line in the my.cnf
The component_validate_password component is loaded. This my.cnf works with 8.0.26!
Any ideas on what I can try to make this work? Thanks in advance.
