Re: Can't restart slave - Could not initialize master info structure

[Vishwanath Patil]

Can't restart slave - Could not initialize master info structure if this error is occuring then do the following steps:

Stop the slave using the command
mysql>stop slave;

come out of mysql prompt using exit command.
change the fourth line of the relay log info file like if its position is 12345 then add 1 to it(12345 + 1 = 12346)

Now go into the mysql prompt and start the slave.

It slave not starting try it out few minutes definitely it will start I tested it.
