MySQL Fixes: Ready Notices, Stops and Deletes
A new MySQL database now reports ready only once it can serve, a stopped one can be deleted, and stops and settings that need a restart finish instead of hanging.
What's changed
- A new MySQL database now stays Provisioning until it can serve connections. Before, it was marked Running and the ready notification went out minutes earlier, while it was still starting
- While a MySQL database is being deleted it keeps showing Deleting, where it used to flip to Provisioning within a second, and a removal that fails now stays in Error so you can ask for it again from the console
- On MySQL databases created from 23 September 2026, deleting a stopped database now completes. Before, the removal could fail repeatedly and leave the database in Provisioning, where it could not be deleted, stopped or started
- On those databases, stopping now finishes: the status moves to Stopped once its servers are down, instead of staying on Stopping
- On those databases, changing a setting that needs a restart now completes once its servers are back and ready. Before, such a change could not be confirmed, so it could be marked failed after 30 minutes and the restarted database set to Error
