Hi, I have installed mysql 4.0 in redhat 7.2 now. I have two such servers with mysql on it and I am now trying to configure them for replication.
1. I could not find my.cnf or my.ini on the box after installing mysql. Won't mysql create those file during installation or do I need to create manually ? Do I need both files ..? 2. I choose to shutdown the master mysql server for replication. When I try to bring it back it says it cannot find mysql.sock in the path. That particular file is not present in the box. How can I get the file ? 3. As I told I have two similar unix box one of which will be main server where the master database is. During failover of Ist server the 2nd server will be taking over Ist servers work additional to second servers work. The 2nd server have slave mysql database. During failover of ist database do I need to make slave database in 2nd server as master..or keep it as slave? How does it work..? Any help will be appreciated Regards _________________________________________ Communicate with others using Lycos Mail for FREE! http://mail.lycos.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
