Never got any replies from the list with suggestions from my last post so I thought I would give another cry for help.To recap: Master Server - Win NT 4.0 mysql 3.23.49-nt-log dual pII 600 Slave Server - Win 2k mysql 4.0.1-alpha-max-nt p4 2.0
Procedure: Followed the manual to set up the slave master cnf files. Shut down the both servers. Copied the original data from master to server. Started master then slave. Problem: mysql.err log on slave gives the following error every 60 secs on trying to synch.020618 13:59:20 Slave: Failed reading log event, reconnecting to retry, log 'FIRST' position 28020618 13:59:20 Slave: connected to master 'repl@taz:3306',replication resumed in log 'FIRST' at position 28020618 13:59:20 Slave: received 0 length packet from server, apparent master shutdown: (2) Showing the process list on the master shows no process from the slave. Showing the ps list on the slave gives the state of:Waiting to reconnect after a failed read I have gone through all the steps I could think of that might solve the problem but to no avail. =\Any help, suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I would really like to get replication working.
