load balancing master-slave setup

[Herbert Balagtas]

Hi I'm trying to get mysql-proxy to load balance using a master-slave setup.

I'm using mysql-proxy on Ubuntu 10.04.3

# mysql-proxy --version
mysql-proxy 0.7.2
glib2: 2.22.2
libevent: 1.4.13-stable
lua: Lua 5.1.4
LUA_PATH: /usr/lib/mysql-proxy/lua/?.lua
LUA_CPATH: /usr/lib/mysql-proxy/lua/?.so
== plugins ==
admin: 0.7.0
proxy: 0.7.0

Here is my config file:


[mysql-proxy]
daemon = true
proxy-address = 127.0.0.1:3306
proxy-skip-profiling = true
keepalive = true
event-threads = 10
pid-file = /var/run/mysql-proxy.pid
log-file = /var/log/mysql-proxy.log
log-level = debug
proxy-backend-addresses = master:3306
proxy-read-only-backend-addresses = slave:3306


However when I use mytop and check munin stats I don't see any reads at all going to the slave.

Can anyone advise please, am I missing something in the config?
