Hello,
We got an error “InnoDB: Error: log file ./ib_logfile0 is of different size 5242880 bytes” when doing stream backup on Ubuntu 12.04
MySQL Server: 5.5.37-0ubuntu0.12.04.1

I found the only way to fix this is to explicitly set the log file size in my.cnf
in the [mysqld] section, add the line
innodb_log_file_size=5M
Changing 5M to whatever size your log file actually is.
The restart mysql
Be warned - changing the log file size will cause mysql to fail to start. If this happens change the size to the correct size.
If you do a full / complete mysql shutdown you can also remove the existing log files before restarting - this always works for me.
Thank you,
I’ve already found this solution too.
MySQL Server depending on version has different default value for innodb_log_file_size: 5242880 (MySQL < 5.6.8), 50331648 (MySQL >= 5.6.8) [url]MySQL :: MySQL 5.6 Reference Manual :: 14.14 InnoDB Startup Options and System Variables
Xtrabackup uses it’s own compiled defaults. Version line “xtrabackup version 2.2.3 based on MySQL server 5.6.17 Linux (x86_64) (revision id: )” is very meaningful.
You are getting this error with xtrabackup compiled against MySQL >= 5.6.8 and MySQL < 5.6.8 when you haven’t explicitly set innodb_log_file_size in my.cnf
Solution is to set correct default value in my.cnf or like you set custom size and reset logfile
Hi, I have same problem with xtrabackup 2.2.3-4982-1.wheezy on Debian 7 Wheezy.

Please, advice - which correct default value in my.cnf should i set based on?
Judging by the error you are getting, 5M is the right size.
