Running 4.0.20-standard-log on Fedora Core 1 on two boxes. Running with a largely untouched my-huge.cnf - innodb configs uncommented.
Followed http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Replication_HOWTO.html to setup replication. On the master I see: mysql> show master status; +-------------+----------+--------------+------------------+ | File | Position | Binlog_do_db | Binlog_ignore_db | +-------------+----------+--------------+------------------+ | db2-bin.005 | 185 | | | +-------------+----------+--------------+------------------+ The HOWTO seems to suggest that Binlog_do_db should have dbs I want to replicate. The slave seems forever stuck in: *************************** 2. row *************************** Id: 2 User: system user Host: db: NULL Command: Connect Time: 797 State: Waiting for master to send event Info: NULL Since I have InnoDB tables and don't have the money for InnoDB Hot Backup, I did a 'flush tables with read lock; show master status' on the master, shutdown the master and rsync'd /var/lib/mysql to the slave. I started the master back up, started the slave, ran the 'change master to' query and started the slave. Log shows: 040527 23:03:49 Slave SQL thread initialized, starting replication in log 'db2-bin.004' at position 211, relay log './db3-relay-bin.001' position: 4 040527 23:03:49 Slave I/O thread: connected to master '[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3306', replication started in log 'db2-bin.004' at position 211 and no other errors. I have test.mrztest and can insert rows on the master but they never appear on the slave. Did I miss a step? Is Binlog_do_db supposed to be empty? -- matthew zeier - "Nothing in life is to be feared.
