Resolved Plesk restore database backup fails on Mysql

Tofandel

Basic Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.54 Update #2
I'm trying to restore a specific database from a plesk backup, but the restore fails with the error

Execution of /usr/bin/mysql --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my.cnf -u backup_TMu6UaF -h localhost -P 3306 --default-character-set utf8 --abort-source-on-error my_db failed with return code 2. Stdin is source /tmp/pmm-ru-udb-dump-YJm5rf/backup_sqldump_2307240112_2308060112; exit Stderr is mysql: [ERROR] unknown option '--abort-source-on-error'. Last error is Resource temporarily unavailable

--abort-source-on-error is a mariadb specific option and doesn't exist on mysql, I do not have mariadb installed, I am using mysql 8 which should be supported


I cannot post directly into the bug thread as I do not have the reputation

Is there any workaround I could use to get the backup restored in the meantime?
 
As a temporary workaround


Code:
mv /usr/bin/mysql /usr/bin/mysql.real
echo '#!/bin/bash

/usr/bin/mysql.real ${@/--abort-source-on-error/}' > /usr/bin/mysql
chmod +x /usr/bin/mysql

To silently drop the option
