同大多数关系型数据库一样，日志文件是MySQL数据库的重要组成部分。MySQL有几种不同的日志文件，通常包括错误日志文件，二进制日志，通用日志，慢查询日志，等等。这些日志可以帮助我们定位mysqld内部发生的事件，数据库性能故障，记录数据的变更历史，用户恢复数据库等等。本文主要描述通用查询日志。
1、MySQL日志文件系统的组成?
2、通用查询日志?
3、通用查询日志的系统变量?
4、通用查询日志的备份
5、演示通用查询日志的使用
a、启用通用查询日志
--演示环境
root@localhost[(none)]> show variables like '%version%';
+-------------------------+------------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+-------------------------+------------------------------+
| innodb_version | 5.5.39 |
| protocol_version | 10 |
| slave_type_conversions | |
| version | 5.5.39-log |
| version_comment | MySQL Community Server (GPL) |
| version_compile_machine | x86_64 |
| version_compile_os | Linux |
+-------------------------+------------------------------+
--查看系统变量
root@localhost[(none)]> show variables like '%general%';
+------------------+----------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+------------------+----------------------------+
| general_log | OFF |
| general_log_file | /var/lib/mysql/suse11b.log |
+------------------+----------------------------+
--查看当前的通用日志，显示无日志文件
root@localhost[(none)]> system ls /var/lib/mysql/suse11b.log
ls: cannot access /var/lib/mysql/suse11b.log: No such file or directory
--设置变量general_log以开启通用查询日志
root@localhost[(none)]> set @@global.general_log=1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
--再次查看通用日志文件已存在
root@localhost[(none)]> system ls /var/lib/mysql/suse11b.log
/var/lib/mysql/suse11b.log
root@localhost[(none)]> select * from tempdb.tb1; --执行查询
+------+------+
| id | val |
+------+------+
| 1 | jack |
+------+------+
--查看通用日志文件内容
root@localhost[(none)]> system more /var/lib/mysql/suse11b.log
/usr/sbin/mysqld, Version: 5.5.39-log (MySQL Community Server (GPL)). started with:
Tcp port: 3306 Unix socket: /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
Time Id Command Argument
141003 16:18:12 4 Query show variables like '%general%'
141003 16:18:55 4 Query select * from tempdb.tb1
b、更改通用查询日志位置
root@localhost[(none)]> exit
Bye
suse11b:~ # service mysql stop
Shutting down MySQL... done
suse11b:~ # mysqld --general_log_file=/tmp/suse11b.log --user=mysql &

suse11b:~ # ps -ef|grep mysql|grep -v grep
mysql 47009 44514 1 16:22 pts/0 00:00:00 mysqld --general_log_file=/tmp/suse11b.log --user=mysql
root 47053 44514 0 16:22 pts/0 00:00:00 grep mysql
suse11b:~ # mysql
root@localhost[(none)]> system ls /tmp/suse11b.log
ls: cannot access /tmp/suse11b.log: No such file or directory
root@localhost[(none)]> show variables like '%gener%';
+------------------+------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+------------------+------------------+
| general_log | OFF |
| general_log_file | /tmp/suse11b.log |
+------------------+------------------+
root@localhost[(none)]> set global general_log=on;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
--此时从系统变量看出，通用日志已经到/tmp目录下
root@localhost[(none)]> show variables like '%gener%';
+------------------+------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+------------------+------------------+
| general_log | ON |
| general_log_file | /tmp/suse11b.log |
+------------------+------------------+
--发布查询
root@localhost[(none)]> select count(*) from tempdb.tb1;
+----------+
| count(*) |
