Hi!

How to disable support of encrypted connections in `MySQL Percona Server v8.0.26-16` with config?

`ssl=off` works, but there’s a warning:

> [Server] The syntax ‘–ssl=off’ is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use --tls-version=invalid instead.

Can’t get a point, what should I use instead?  
`tls_version=""` and `tls_version=invalid` are not valid values.

Documentation says:

But it’s still not clear for me. May someone help, please?  
There are tons results in Google how to set up SSL connections, but there’s no article how to just disable it 😅

Hello Asamofal,  
Yeah, this is a known issue and it’s related to community MySQL, I hope it will be fixed in feature releases.
