Hi @slrslr Hi @mia0x75

Thanks for anwser :)

After following Your advice, i found the warning disappeared, maybe instead of that i see:
[--] There are 612 basic passwords in the list.
i assume it means i am using alot of weak (basic) passwords, indeed when attempted to migrate to server with higher mysql version, it forced password reset.

Is there an option to reference this basic password file in mysqltuner, assuming I run mysqltuner from /usr/local/bin symlinked from other places, this will not work.

EDIT:

It's ok I found bunch of options inside the code starting line 113, and there is a passwordfile argument.
