Version 1.5.2 of the innotop MySQL monitor released

Download innotop

This release is part of the unstable 1.5 branch. Its features will ultimately go into the stable 1.6 branch. You can download it from the innotop-devel package.

The major change is I’ve ripped out the W (Lock Waits) mode and enabled innotop to discover not only what a transaction is waiting for, but what it holds too. The new mode that replaces W is L (Locks). My last article goes into more detail on this.

    I’ve downloaded the latest version of innotop 1.5.2, and get the following error when using the ‘S’, Variable and Status mode:

    Argument “0.00%” isn’t numeric in subroutine entry at /usr/bin/innotop line 698.

    Then it crashes out. Please advise. This is on SuSE SLES9. MySQL 5.0.27-standard
