MySQL simple replication problem: 'show master status' produces 'Empty set'?
- by simon
I've been setting up MySQL master replication (on Debian 6.0.1) following these instructions faithfully: http://www.neocodesoftware.com/replication/
I've got as far as:
mysql > show master status;
but this is unfortunately producing the following, rather than any useful output:
Empty set (0.00 sec)
The error log at /var/log/mysql.err is just an empty file, so that's not giving me any clues.
Any ideas?
This is what I have put in /etc/mysql/my.cnf on one server (amended appropriately for the other server):
server-id = 1
replicate-same-server-id = 0
auto-increment-increment = 2
auto-increment-offset = 1
master-host = 10.0.0.3
master-user = <myusername>
master-password = <mypass>
master-connect-retry = 60
replicate-do-db = fruit
log-bin = /var/log/mysql-replication.log
binlog-do-db = fruit
And I have set up users and can connect from MySQL on Server A to the database on Server B using the username/password/ipaddress above.
