In mysqld.log I have thousands of lines like:

Table mysql/innodb_index_stats has length mismatch in the column name table_name.  Please run mysql_upgrade

So, according to virtually every post on the matter (and error msg itself):

mysql_upgrade -u root -p

But, I am still getting the error in the log

2019-01-27T18:37:15.304587Z 66190 [Warning] InnoDB: Table mysql/innodb_table_stats has length mismatch in the column name table_name.  Please run mysql_upgrade

The structure appears to be okay. Is there a config issue? Please advise.

The answer appears to be - reboot server. I do not have rights to do this, but after admin rebooted, issue appears to be resolved. Not sure why just rebooting MySQL did not fix?

Do you have any clue what is going on when the Warning is being generated? It sounds like some form of version mismatch. Do you have any Plugins?

Please file a bug at bugs.mysql.com .

Meanwhile, do

USE mysql;

SHOW CREATE TABLE innodb_index_stats ;

Check, in particular, the definition of table_name. It used to be

`table_name` varchar(64) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,

8.0 changes it to

`table_name` varchar(199) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,

If it is still 64, simulate what mysql_update should have done, by doing

ALTER TABLE innodb_index_stats

    MODIFY   `table_name` varchar(199) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL;

Ditto for innodb_table_stats.
