2017-06-29T17:38:11.889889Z 5 [Note] Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
I am on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I do not know what is running the SELECT or what is trying to login as the root user. I do not suspect malware as these are brand new installed machines. These lines come instantly after each restart.
How do I further debug what is running the SELECT and what is being denied access for root@localhost? I have turned off all of my processes.
Thanks!
