I have a very minimal, fresh out of the box setup for MariaDB with Galera clustering. My master node of the cluster is able to run, and is reporting that there is only one node attached to the cluster, the master itself. When I try attaching the second node to the cluster I am receiving a state received error and the process errors out, and fails. The configuration on the master looks like this: [mariadb] wsrep_cluster_address=gcomm:// wsrep_provider=/usr/lib64/galera/libgalera_smm.so binlog_format=ROW default_storage_engine=InnoDB innodb_autoinc_lock_mode=2 innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog=1 This is in /etc/my.cnf.d/zabbix_cluster.cnf. The slave node looks similar, except it has the name of the Master node in it. When I run `service mysql restart` on the slave node, the output says that MySQL was start successfully, but when I do `pgrep mysql` it returns nothing. Upon examination of the `/var/log/mysql/error.log` I initialized, it says that there is a state receive error, and will never receive state. The output looks like this: 130806 10:10:15 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 130806 10:10:15 mysqld_safe WSREP: Running position recovery with --log_error=/tmp/tmp.uZwsHWfH6y 130806 10:10:17 mysqld_safe WSREP: Recovered position 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000:-1 130806 10:10:17 [Warning] option 'general_log': boolean value '/var/log/mysql/mysqld.log' wasn't recognized.
