MySQL Error 1344: Malformed Configuration Parsing
Description
MySQL Error 1344, "Unexpected end of file while skipping unknown parameter '%s'", indicates that the MySQL server's internal parser encountered an abrupt end of a file. This typically occurs when a configuration file, SQL script, or another input file is incomplete, corrupted, or contains severe syntax errors, preventing the parser from fully processing a parameter definition.
Error Message
Unexpected end of file while skipping unknown parameter '%s'
Known Causes
3 known causesIncomplete Configuration File
A MySQL configuration file (e.g., `my.cnf`) is truncated or incomplete, ending abruptly in the middle of a parameter's definition or value.
Corrupted SQL Script or Data File
An SQL script, dump file, or other input being processed by a MySQL client or utility is corrupted, leading to an unexpected end-of-file condition during parsing.
Malformed Parameter Syntax
A severe syntax error within a parameter definition in a configuration or script file causes the parser to misinterpret the file structure and prematurely encounter the end of the file.
