We recently completed a project where all of our production servers were replaced. As part of this project, one of the new servers acted as a replication-slave to one of the old servers, which was the replication-master. I had replication up and running just fine on multiple slaves for a couple of years. Last weekend I moved all functionality from the old server to the new server so that the new server is now setup at the replication-master. I am trying to setup replication-slaves on some of the other new servers and have run into problems doing so.
In the my.ini for the master, there is: [mysqld] log-error=D:\Logs\mysql_error.log log-warnings server-id=1 lower_case_table_names=2 log-bin=D:\Logs\mysql-bin.log tmpdir=D:/Temp The master is creating the binary-log and index. There is a replication account setup on the master called "replication". The slave is creating a relay-log and index, has what appears to be correct master.info and relay-log.info files. When I start the slave I get the following in the error log: 090325 9:03:30 [Note] Slave SQL thread initialized, starting replication in log 'mysql_bin.000004' at position 10120038, relay log '.\AMSCD2-relay-bin.000002' position: 4 090325 9:03:30 [Note] Slave I/O thread: connected to master 'replicat...@amstcop:3306', replication started in log 'mysql_bin.000004' at position 10120038 090325 9:03:30 [ERROR] Error reading packet from server: Could not find first log file name in binary log index file (server_errno=1236) 090325 9:03:30 [ERROR] Got fatal error 1236: 'Could not find first log file name in binary log index file' from master when reading data from binary log I'm sure that I've overlooked something, well, stupid, but have struggled with it the last few days to no avail. All servers are using the same version of 4.1.22-community-nt. I feel a bit naked without the replication so your assistance in helping me getting it up and running will be very appreciated.
