MySQL Error 1593: Critical Binary Log Failure
Description
MySQL Error 1593, reported as ER_BINLOG_FATAL_ERROR, indicates a severe and unrecoverable problem with the server's binary log. This error typically occurs when MySQL encounters an issue that prevents it from reliably writing to or managing the binary log files, often leading to server shutdown or replication halts. It signifies a critical operational failure that can impact data consistency and recovery capabilities.
Error Message
Fatal error: %s
Known Causes
4 known causesInsufficient Disk Space or Permissions
MySQL cannot write new binary log events because the disk volume is full or the MySQL user lacks the necessary write permissions for the binary log directory.
Underlying I/O or Hardware Failure
Problems with the physical storage system, such as disk corruption, RAID array issues, or network storage connectivity failures, prevent MySQL from performing essential binary log write operations.
Incorrect Binary Log Configuration
Misconfigurations in the `my.cnf` file related to binary logging parameters, such as an invalid `log_bin` path or an excessively small `max_binlog_size`, can lead to unrecoverable errors during operation.
Operating System Resource Limits
System-level resource constraints, such as the maximum number of open files or insufficient memory, can prevent MySQL from properly managing its binary log files, leading to write failures.
