Hi currently I am working on implementing data replication on MYSQL for my project. While working on master file configurations on windows when I am trying to check the status of master, it returns empty set. It means it is not locating mysql-bin file and its position. I have made changes in ini file but the changes are not getting reflected. Can you please advise how I can enable binary loggings in windows configuration Please review and advise
Mysql – Show master status returns empty set of rows

There is more stable approach you can try
Here is something to remember
Whenever you run CHANGE MASTER TO
, it will erase every relay log you have. You do not want to keep relay logs of commands you have not executed any SQL on as of yet
The following is an excerpt taken from a post I made back on Feb 03, 2012 : How to resolve the master server shut down/unavailability in mysql with master - slave replication :
Please notice that there are two sets of replication coordinates from the Master
- (Master_Log_File,Read_Master_Log_Pos)
- (Relay_Master_Log_File,Exec_Master_Log_Pos)
There is a major difference between them
(Master_Log_File,Read_Master_Log_Pos)
tells you the last binlog statement from the Master's log file and log position that the Slave read from the Master and placed in its Relay Logs.(Relay_Master_Log_File,Exec_Master_Log_Pos)
tells you the last binlog statement from the Master's log file and log position that the Slave read from the Master and placed in its Relay Logs THAT IS NEXT TO BE EXECUTED ON THE SLAVE.
What you want are two things:
- Erase Every Binary Log You Have
- Start Collecting Binary Log Entries From the Last SQL You Successfully Executed.
In your case, you must use the second set of Replication Coordinates
Relay_Master_Log_File
Exec_Master_Log_Pos
It is easy to distrust a corrupt relay log as shown in the error message. The one that hurts the most is a corrupt Master Log. You will have to jump through hoops if that is the case. On the other hand, if one of the other situations was the reason for the corrupt relay log, the simplest and most concise approach is what I stated.
To make sure, whatever is reported for Relay_Master_Log_File
, if that particular binary log still exists on the Master, perform a mysqlbinlog on it. If it dumps in its entirety without corrupt characters, go ahead and use the second set of replication coordinates.

notice that the Replication Coordinates from SHOW SLAVE STATUS\G
for what was last executed are (mysql-bin.000254,858190247)
. The CHANGE MASTER TO
command in this case would be:
CHANGE MASTER TO master_log_file='mysql-bin.000254',master_log_pos=858190247;
Give it a Try !!!

If you worried about the stockpiling relay logs, just throttle the relay logs. In SHOW SLAVE STATUS\G
, there is a field called Relay_Log_Space
. That gives you the sum of all relay sizes in bytes. Did you know you could put a cap on that number ?
The option is called relay_log_space_limit.
For example, if you want to cap the total number of bytes to 10G, do the following
STEP 01) Add this to /etc/my.cnf on the Slave
[mysqld]
relay_log_space_limit = 10G
STEP 02) Run service mysql restart
on the Slave
and that's it !!!
When the oldest relay has all its entries processed, it is deleted and a new relay log is created. That gets filled until all relay logs add up to 10G. That's the only way to control runaway relay log space issues.
UPDATE 2012-09-14 18:10 EDT
SUGGESTION : If you make mysqldump backups of the data on the Slave every midnight, you could set up the following to restrict having 1TB of binary logs:
STEP 01) Add this to /etc/my.cnf on the Master
[mysqld]
expire_logs_days = 14
STEP 02) Run this query on the Master
mysql> PURGE BINARY LOGS BEFORE DATE(NOW()) - INTERVAL 14 DAY;
STEP 03) service mysql restart
on the Master
STEP 04) Add a mysqldump backup script to a crontab on the Slave
This will make the Slave more useful and would control having excess binary logs to worry about
I believe the log file and position need to be specified with the host.
Try:
CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='192.168.1.105', MASTER_USER='slaveuser', MASTER_PASSWORD='mypassword', MASTER_LOG_FILE='mysql-bin.000001', MASTER_LOG_POS=107;

There are many variables for MySQL that are not dynamic (cannot be changed inflight) and require a service restart. This includes some of the binary log specific variables. Consult the MySQL documentation for further info on each variables as and when you discover you need to update their values.
Restarting the process from the service manager should allow these new settings to take hold.
