I have the exact same problem described in this topic ([No data MySQL dashboard - version mismatch?](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/no-data-mysql-dashboard-version-mismatch/146480)). I'm using metricbeat 7.4.2 (amd64) with CentOS 7 and Percona Server 5.7.22 The topic ends with no resolution. So i'm wondering if there's something special about this config or i hit a bug. Logs doesn't show any errors regarding mysql. ---

Hey @JValenzani, What is exactly the problem in your case? You don't see anything in the MySQL dashboard? What configuration are you using? Do you see any error in Metricbeat logs? ---

Same problem as described in the linked post. No data in the MySQL Dashboard, no errors in log. Module seems to be loading: 2019-12-16T11:10:15.928-0300 DEBUG [module] module/wrapper.go:182 Starting metricSetWrapper[module=mysql, name=status, host=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock] ---

Could you share your configuration? (remember to hide credentials) Could you check from Kibana if there is any document from the mysql module? For that look for events in `metricbeat-*` indexes, for example from the developer console: ```auto GET metricbeat-*/_search?q=event.module:mysql ``` ---

I've passed the yml file through a linter and found a typo. Seems to be working now. Anyway, the log file /var/log/metricbeat/ is empty, even with logging.level: debug and logging.selectors: ["\*"] enabled. ---

If you are running metricbeat in a system with systemd logs will be written to stdout and captured by journald, take a look to [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.5/running-with-systemd.html#\_customize\_systemd\_unit\_for\_metricbeat](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.5/running-with-systemd.html#_customize_systemd_unit_for_metricbeat) ---
