MySQL test caused Got an error reading communication packets

[Giacomo]

Hi,

I guess this is related to #54.

‌

On my Debian 9 server I’ve got Monit 5.20.0 and Mysql 5.7.26.
The Mysql check is:

check process mysql with pidfile /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
            group database
            start program = "/etc/init.d/mysql start"
            stop program = "/etc/init.d/mysql stop"
            if failed host 127.0.0.1 port 3306  then restart
            if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout #        

In the Mysql logs I see, at every check this:

[Note] Got an error reading communication packets

‌

As mentioned in Issue #54, I tought this was fixed in Monit > 5.8. I didn’t see this logs in Mysql 5.6.

Is this a regression?

Use if failed port 3306 protocol mysql then xxxx. Note, mysql protocol test is for MySQL 5.x and not updated for MySQL 8.x
