in MYSQL.err log, I'm seeing a large number of these errors. [ERROR] Invalid (old?) table or database name '.ssh' in PHPMyadmin, I can see at the top of my database lists a database named #MYSql50#.ssh Under WHM?Manage databases, I can't see it. 1. should it be there 2. could this be the cause of the errors 3. how would I remove it, if it's not menat to be there ?

  in var/lib/mysql, i see an empty folder named .ssh. I assume this is the issue. is it safe to delete this ?

  Hello, Yes, you can remove that directory, as it's not a standard directory within /var/lib/mysql. The ".ssh" directory generally exists in a user's home directory and contains SSH data (keys, authorized hosts). Thank you.
