In answer to my own question:

Why don't the binary logs write?

The '%-bin.index' file left over from previous version (4.1.9) had to be deleted after the conversion to 5.1.6.

By deleting this file, the binary logs started to recreate.

I hope this is useful to somebody :)

Dear MySQL,

I have just upgraded 4.1.9 to 5.1.6, by compiling source code. I have lost my binary logs.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/binary-log.html

eg: my-bin.000001
    my-bin.000002

The usual option is present:

[mysqld]
log-bin = /usr/local/mysql/logs/my-bin

**or**

[mysqld]
log-bin = ../logs/my-bin


I do have the new tables 'mysql.general_log' and 'mysql.slow_log' which contain correct information.


Does any member have any advise on what may be going wrong?

Regards,

Ben
