MariaDB Error 1776: Replication Position Conflict
Description
This error occurs in MariaDB replication when attempting to configure a replica. It indicates an invalid combination of replication parameters where GTID-based auto-positioning (MASTER_AUTO_POSITION) is enabled simultaneously with explicit log file and position parameters (MASTER_LOG_FILE, MASTER_LOG_POS, etc.). This configuration is contradictory, as the replica cannot both automatically determine its position and be manually directed.
Error Message
Parameters MASTER_LOG_FILE, MASTER_LOG_POS, RELAY_LOG_FILE and RELAY_LOG_POS cannot be set when MASTER_AUTO_POSITION is active.
Known Causes
3 known causesConflicting Replication Modes
The `CHANGE MASTER TO` statement includes both `MASTER_AUTO_POSITION=1` and explicit `MASTER_LOG_FILE`/`MASTER_LOG_POS` parameters, which are mutually exclusive.
Automated Script Error
An automated script or template for setting up replication mistakenly includes parameters for both GTID and binary log file positioning.
Migration Configuration Issue
During a transition from traditional binary log file replication to GTID-based replication, legacy position parameters were not properly excluded from the `CHANGE MASTER TO` statement.
