Re: Command prompt replication.

Hi,
        I'm evaluating command prompts replication server and have an issue I need help to resolve.

        I have install the master and slave from the postgres code supplied from command prompt. Have created a benchpg database which is automatically created by the contrib program, pg_bench. Then proceeded to copy that database to the slave via pg_dump, etc...

        Im currently running both databases on separate servers. And I have started up :

 /usr/local/pgsql/bin/mcp_server -c /usr/local/pgsql/etc/mcp_server.conf -l /var/log/mcp_server.log &

        Based on the output both pg servers connect to the mcp server successfully..

        Ok..

        Not testing the replication by inserting a record into the master database table branches.

        As soon as I enter this record /var/log/mcp_server.log is populated with :
 

DEBUG_MSG:  MCP-M-Recv| recno: 16003065  txnid:    85  datalen:    25  flags: TABLE_BEGIN TABLE_LIST TABLE_END

DEBUG_SLAVE:  0: Recv ACK from Slave(0) => Slave(0).vrecno = 16003071

On the slave server the /var/log/postgresql.log is polutated with this:

LOG:  INCSKIP to 16003071
LOG:  SET mcp_ack_recno: 16003071

Based on my limited knowledge and little documentation provided by command prompt, all looks well??? However the record I added to the master has not been copied to the slave.

Regards,
        Theo
