MySQL Error 1775: GTID Integer Component Exhaustion

📦 MySQL
📋

Description

This error indicates that the integer component of the Global Transaction Identifier (GTID) has reached its maximum possible value for the current server UUID. It occurs when a MySQL server, configured with GTID replication, has processed an extremely high number of transactions, preventing the assignment of new unique GTIDs.
💬

Error Message

Impossible to generate GTID: the integer component reached the maximum value. Restart the server with a new server_uuid.
🔍

Known Causes

3 known causes
⚠️
Excessive Transaction Volume
The MySQL server has processed an extraordinarily large number of transactions, exhausting the 32-bit sequence number within the GTID for the current server_uuid.
⚠️
Prolonged Server Operation
A single MySQL server instance has been running for an extended period without its server_uuid being changed, allowing the GTID sequence to increment continuously to its limit.
⚠️
Rapid GTID Consumption
Application workloads or specific transaction patterns that generate a very high rate of individual transactions can accelerate the consumption of the GTID integer component.

Solutions

3 solutions available

1. Restart with a New Server UUID (Quick Fix) easy

The fastest way to resolve this is to restart the MySQL server with a newly generated server UUID.

1
Stop the MySQL server.
sudo systemctl stop mysql
2
Locate your MySQL configuration file. This is typically `my.cnf` or `my.ini` and can be found in locations like `/etc/mysql/my.cnf`, `/etc/my.cnf`, or within the MySQL data directory.
3
Edit the configuration file to remove or comment out the `server-uuid` line. If it doesn't exist, it will be generated automatically on restart.
# server-uuid = <existing_uuid>
4
Start the MySQL server. It will generate a new `server-uuid` automatically.
sudo systemctl start mysql
5
Verify that the server has started and check the new `server-uuid`. You can find this in the MySQL error log.
sudo tail -f /var/log/mysql/error.log

2. Manually Set a New Server UUID medium

Explicitly define a new server UUID in the configuration file.

1
Stop the MySQL server.
sudo systemctl stop mysql
2
Generate a new UUID. You can use the `uuidgen` command on Linux/macOS or PowerShell on Windows.
uuidgen
3
Locate your MySQL configuration file (e.g., `my.cnf`, `my.ini`).
4
Edit the configuration file and add or update the `server-uuid` directive with the newly generated UUID.
[mysqld]
server-uuid = <your_newly_generated_uuid>
5
Start the MySQL server.
sudo systemctl start mysql
6
Verify that the server has started and check the error log for confirmation of the new UUID.
sudo tail -f /var/log/mysql/error.log

3. Rebuild GTID State (More Involved) advanced

This approach involves clearing existing GTID information and allowing it to rebuild.

1
Stop the MySQL server.
sudo systemctl stop mysql
2
Backup your MySQL data directory. This is critical for recovery if anything goes wrong.
cp -a /var/lib/mysql /var/lib/mysql_backup_$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S)
3
Locate your MySQL data directory. This is usually specified by the `datadir` variable in your `my.cnf` file.
4
Remove the GTID related files from the data directory. These are typically `gtid_executed.000001` and `gtid_executed.state` (filenames may vary slightly).
rm /var/lib/mysql/gtid_executed.*
5
Edit your MySQL configuration file (`my.cnf` or `my.ini`). Ensure `gtid_mode=ON` and `enforce_gtid_consistency=ON` are set.
[mysqld]
gtid_mode=ON
enforce_gtid_consistency=ON
6
Start the MySQL server. It will reinitialize the GTID state and generate a new `server-uuid`.
sudo systemctl start mysql
7
Connect to MySQL and verify the GTID status. The `gtid_executed` set should be empty or reflect the initial state.
mysql -u root -p
SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'gtid_executed';
8
If you are using replication, you will need to reconfigure your replicas to point to the new primary or re-initialize them.
