I was unaware that this site is not fully opened up yet.  After the move between technologies, the process and the site are undergoing an internal privacy review.  Sorry these things take time.  Hopefully, it will be "public" as it states very soon. ------------------------------ Stephen Donovan ...

You are correct that you will have to reregsiter with the new JIRA.  Tickets were migrated but we did not bring over all of the users. Are you saying you cannot see anything here? https://pentaho-public.atlassian.net/jira/software/c/projects/PDI/issues ------------------------------ Stephen Donovan ...

I am not seeing that.  I am on MySQL 8.0.30 with the same driver.  Make sure you don't have a driver mismatch. If you are using shared DB connections and consitent naming, the toggle of the driver and even the Type from MySQL to Generic and back should be transparent.

My initial tests were invalid.  I had the select in the same Transform as the TableOutput.  This creates a potential shared connection group which forced the DELETE due to parallel thread use. https://github.com/pentaho/pentaho-kettle/blob/8.3/core/src/main/java/org/pentaho/di/core/database/Database.java#L3325-L3336 ...

I don't have an answer, but I think I have a workaround.  In your connection, change from the MySQL dialect to the Generic Database dialect.  Specifiy the URL and driver class (likely com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver).  Then select MySQL in the dialect drop down at the top.  If you forget this last step, you ...

Not an answer yet.  I have confirmed this behavior in 7.1, 8.3.0.10 and 9.4.  With the current Mysql 8 Driver and the older version 5 org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver.

Is there a restriction that requires the use of the private key?  Most often we use local token (temporary) credentials for testing and then run within the same subnet on an ec2 instance with associated IAM Roles for other assets (like S3, Snowflake etc). Trying to bettr understand the use case beyond ...

SAML Auth is supported in the Enterprise Edition.  We do not release this with CE.  As such, I am unaware of any other community support for SAML. ------------------------------ Stephen Donovan Digital Solutions Architect Hitachi Vantara ------------------------------

If you are running in parrallel, you may have hit a caching issue with the parameter. "MetaFileLoaderCache causes Incorrect Behavior/Results with Parallel Execution" This is fixed in 9.4 (EE and CE) and in 9.3.0.1+ (EE).

Can you explain why/how the Filter step does not work?  Are you trying to inject the column name(s) dynamically? ------------------------------ Stephen Donovan Digital Solutions Architect Hitachi Vantara ------------------------------

For CE, there are no patches.  This issue could not even be considered until 9.6.    Based on changes to metadata connections and variable context that I know are being considered, I am unsure if variables in transform metadata and toggling shared.xml would even be possible.  Toggling the dialect with ...

It does seem to be a defect.  Worked in 8.0, but in 8.3 it does not which continues foward to 9.4.  There is a lot of caching in those shared objects, which I believe is the culprit. I would recommend using kettle.properties (or other property file load steps) to set variables for database connections.  ...

I may have confirmed what you are seeing.  This is my stripped down version with two shared.xml files connecting to different databases.  Can you confirm this represents the issue you are referring to?

“We define a variable in the Shared objects file field, and the value of the variable is set by a Set Variables step.”  Is $KETTLE_SHARED_OBJECTS the variable the are setting? It sounds like they setting another variable and placing it this field?   What scope are they using when setting the variable? ...
