I'm using a tutorial to set up a master (single) slave setup. When I run the command show master status; I get Empty set (0.00 sec).
I have done a lot of research and believe that the log file I have set up isn't being used properly.
The master is a Windows server, and I am administering it through workbench.
The log file (log-bin.log) I have configured in the options exists, and is accessible by 'System'. But when I open it as a text file it doesn't have any data. So I'm assuming it's not getting used properly.
How can I get the logging happening so I can finish setting up this replication?
Edit: Purely for reference here is the tutorial. I followed all the steps and double checked everything up until show master status.
