Hi All, I have been trying to assist in a replication problem with Solaris. Seems the problem came down to using an IP address in the CHANGE MASTER command. The Slave would not connect properly to a master defined by IP address, but when the IP was out in a hosts file and the hostname specified everything was fine.
See: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Databases/Mysql/Q_20767370.html In addition, this issue is mentioned in a comment at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Replication_HOWTO.html "Posted by Juha Palomaki on Thursday September 18 2003, @11:18am I couldn't get the replication working on Solaris (SunOS 5.8) with MySQL MAX 4.0.15 precompiled binary with IP addresses. When I tried to start the replication it was always complaining about not being able to login as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Everything started working after I put the IP address to /etc/hosts and put the name of the machine instead of IP address to /etc/my.cnf." I do not use Solaris and cannot replicate this myself, but is this a known issue or should it go to bugs.mysql.com?
