I'm trying to set up a replication database and cannot get the slave to parse the log files on the master. The slave is connecting to the master as indicated in the log file.
I have tried to connect directly to the master database from the mysql client on the slave and have no problem using the replication username and password. The master server is mysql-3.23.37-pc-linux-gnu-i686 The slave server is mysql mysql-3.23.51-pc-linux-gnu-i686 From the Mysql site, these two are compatible as a slave master pair. The error message from the slaves error log reads. 14:28:38 Slave: connected to master '[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3306', replication started in log 'FIRST' at position 4 020813 14:28:38 Could not parse log event entry, check the master for binlog corruption This may also be a network problem, or just a bug in the master or slave code. (WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE LOG FILE THE SLAVE IS TRYING TO READ???? mysql.log?) 020813 14:28:38 Error running query, slave aborted. Fix the problem, and re-start the slave thread with "mysqladmin start-slave". We stopped at log 'FIRST' position 4 020813 14:28:38 Slave thread exiting, replication stopped in log 'FIRST' at position 4 WHAT is "log 'FIRST' at position 4" referencing? Thanks for any help you can provide.
