MariaDB Error 1380: Relay Log Initialization Failure
Description
Error 1380, 'Failed initializing relay log position', indicates a critical issue during MariaDB replication where a replica (slave) server cannot determine or set its starting point within the relay log files. This typically prevents the replica from processing events from the master, halting replication. It commonly occurs when starting the replica or during server startup.
Error Message
Failed initializing relay log position: %s
Known Causes
4 known causesCorrupted Relay Log Files
Relay log files may be damaged or unreadable due to disk issues, improper shutdowns, or filesystem errors, preventing the replica from parsing them correctly.
Invalid Relay Log Index
The `relay-log.info` or `relay-log.index` file, which tracks the replica's relay log position, is corrupted or points to a non-existent log file.
Insufficient Disk Space
The server lacks sufficient disk space to manage or create new relay log files, leading to write failures or partial file corruption.
Filesystem Permissions
The MariaDB user lacks necessary read/write permissions for the relay log files or the directory containing them, preventing proper access.
