Unable to get mysql performance in packetbeat

If you cannot find it, lets try this test:

  • In one terminal tab, start tcpdump and and leave it running:

       tcpdump -i lo -s 0 -w trace.pcap "port 3306"
    
  • On another terminal tab, start the mysql prompt replacing root with a user you have for mysql:

      mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root
    
  • On the mysql prompt to a simple select like:

      select 1;
    
  • Stop tcpdump and check that the trace.pcap file was created.
