MySQL Replication works only on servers where MySQL 5.x is installed

Create user on Server 1

  • Username: rep2
  • Password: rep2
  • Host: 222.222.222.222
  • Grant all privileges to this user (on database mor)

Create user on Server 2

  • Username: rep1
  • Password: rep1
  • Host: 111.111.111.111
  • Grant all privileges to this user (on database mor)

Server 1 my.cnf

[mysqld]

# clients (those using the mysqlclient10 compatibility package).

Or change correct location into mysql.cnf file (e.g. socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock)

Or change correct location into mysql.cnf file (e.g. socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock


Server 2

Make sure data on Server 2 = data on Server 1. E.g. MySQL table structure and data are identical on both machines.


Server 1

/etc/init.d/mysql restart
mysql -u root -p 
USE mor;
FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK; 
SHOW MASTER STATUS; 

Remember File and Position.

UNLOCK TABLES;
quit;



Server2

/etc/init.d/mysql restart
mysql -u root -p 
SLAVE STOP; 
CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='111.111.111.111', MASTER_USER='rep2', MASTER_PASSWORD='rep2', MASTER_LOG_FILE='mysql-bin.000010', MASTER_LOG_POS=1183703; 

NOTE: Change MASTER_HOST, MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS accordingly.

START SLAVE;
USE mor;
FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK; 
SHOW MASTER STATUS; 

Remember File and Position.

UNLOCK TABLES;
quit;


Server 1

mysql -u root -p 
SLAVE STOP; 
CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='222.222.222.222', MASTER_USER='rep1', MASTER_PASSWORD='rep1', MASTER_LOG_FILE='mysql-bin.000011', MASTER_LOG_POS=98; 

NOTE: Change MASTER_HOST, MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS accordingly.

START SLAVE;
quit;



Log files

In order for MySQL Replication to function properly you need to check log files in /var/lib/mysql

Open master-log-bin.index, it should contain names of the files which really exist in same folder. If there's some mismatch - edit this file: enter missing names for files or delete file names which does not represent real files in this folder.

Same with file slave-relay-log.index



Testing

Login to MySQL console on both servers:

mysql -u root -p 

Then:

SHOW SLAVE STATUS\G

If everything is ok you should see such lines between others on both servers:

Slave_IO_State: Waiting for master to send event
Slave_IO_Running: Yes
Slave_SQL_Running: Yes


If Replication is off you will see:

Slave_IO_State:
Slave_IO_Running: No



Troubleshooting

Check file: /var/lib/mysql/mysqld.log

'Could not find first log file name in binary log index file' from master when reading data from binary log

We go to the master and check /var/lib/mysql/master-log-bin.index file.

For example it can show:

/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000001
/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000002
/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000003
/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000005

In /var/lib/mysql/ we also have file mysql-bin.000004, so its' name is missing in index file, lets add it, so master-log-bin.index looks like:

/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000001
/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000002
/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000003
/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000004
/var/lib/mysql/mysql-bin.000005

Restart mysql on this server and try with slave again.

This is just an example - some other file's records can be missing. Make sure file has all related file's records which are in same folder.

Failed to open the relay log

  • stop mysql on the slave server
  • find the directory that contains the relay logs (usually /var/lib/mysql)
  • delete all relay logs called hostname-relay-bin.XXX, hostname-relay-bin.index and relay-log.info
  • restart mysql

Your mysql will start with fresh relay logs and is getting the missing data directly from the master server, as there will be probably still bin logs!




  • Default mysql.cnf - can be usefull to go back if something goes wrong and no backup is done
  • If server is rebooted - it takes ~45s for database to start synchronizing after MySQL is up
