OS: RedHat 6.2 on master and slave mySQL: 3.23.32 on master and slave Problem: Replication is not working. Symptoms include: * Connecting OK. 'Show slave status' reports nominally. * Position on the log file increments correctly when updates occur on the master. * The tables do not get updated. The web hosting service (20after4.com = recommended - very helpful people there) has performed a replication between two of their servers, using the same master for my replication attempt as the master for theirs. Their replication worked. The main difference is that they did not use redirection and I did. Having the development database on this system, I do not want to replicate directly. So, when we synced I created a local database here (xxxprod), copied the snapshot of the production database to the xxxprod data directory here, then initiated replication. We have tried putting the replication commands in the my.cnf file and using the 'change master to' command, and get the same results. Here is the current my.cnf file. [mysqld] server-id=111111 replicate-do-db=xxx replicate-rewrite-db=xxx->xxxprod Anyone have an idea what we may have done wrong? --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
