Subject:Replication Offset off by 22 bug fixed
View as plain text  
Hello, everyone:

Good news - I was able to repeat and fix the bug that several people have 
reported but were not able to repeat. No wonder - even after I noticed the 
problem in the source, it took some creative work to be able to write a test 
case for it. ( We try to write a test case for every bug we find, even if we 
find it just by visual inspection). 

The symptom of the bug was that you would get a message in the slave error 
log about the lost connection due to a low setting of max_allowed_packet when 
max_allowed_packet setting was not the problem at all. 

The fix is to upgrade to 3.23.40, which should be out within 24 hours ( this 
is why I have not bothered to make a patch, if somebody really cannot wait, 
let me know).

To work around, if you hit this problem before 3.23.40 becomes available, do:

SLAVE STOP;
SHOW SLAVE STATUS;
remember the offset
subtract 22 from it and obtain the value of new_pos
CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_LOG_POS=new_pos   
SLAVE START;

Let's hope this is the last replication bug in 3.23 :-)
