Bug #17076131 MYSQLDUMP FAILS WHEN ERR LOG ON RUNNING SERVER IS DELET…

…ED ON WINDOWS

Problem:
As the title mentions, on windows mysqldump tool is creating the dump file 
without the content (tables, views etc) of a database that is dumped when the 
error log file is deleted (by the user). Similar behaviour is not happening 
on Linux falvours. The difference is due to the difference in handling of the 
deleted files. In Windows, the line "if (flush_logs || opt_delete_master_logs)"
in main.c of mysqldump is returning error whereas on linux this line is passing

Solution:
The core problem is that, in Windows, the new error log file is being created but
the old file descriptor which is associated with both stdout and stderr stream
is not being closed by the program. So a retry logic has been implemented where
we close the error log's file descriptor (associated open fds of stderr and
stdout) in the first attempt and open a new file and associating it with
stdout/stderr streams.
