I'm getting the following error using Confluent and Debezium 1.1 and 1.2.final:

org.apache.kafka.connect.errors.ConnectException: Table 'mysql.rds_sysinfo' doesn't exist Error code: 1146; SQLSTATE: 42S02. at io.debezium.connector.mysql.AbstractReader.wrap(AbstractReader.java:230) at io.debezium.connector.mysql.AbstractReader.failed(AbstractReader.java:207) at io.debezium.connector.mysql.SnapshotReader.execute(SnapshotReader.java:831) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:11

My database is an Aurora MySQL. 

Was able to trace down the issue to:

https://github.com/debezium/debezium/blob/master/debezium-connector-mysql/src/main/java/io/debezium/connector/mysql/SnapshotReader.java#L401

because when I set database.history.store.only.monitored.tables.ddl to true the error vanishes. But the documentation say that it's not safe to do that in case the table filters change (which they probably will in the future).

I guess I'm wondering why the knownTableIds are not being tested for internal tables.
