MySQL master/slave configuration prompts Failed to initialize the master info structure error

Early in the morning, I received a MySQL custom language warning: replication interrupt. It seems that an error was reported during master-slave synchronization.
Log on to MySQL and run show slave status \ G to find that salve has stopped. Therefore, start slave and report the following error:

ERROR 1201 (HY000): cocould not initialize master info structure; more error messages can be found in the MySQL error log

After searching, the solutions provided on the Internet are basically:

1. Execute reset slave;
② Re-execute change master:

Mysql> change master
-> Master_host = '192. 168.1.100 ',
-> Master_port = 3306,
-> Master_user = 'repl ',
-> Master_password = 'repl ',
-> Master_log_file = 'MySQL-bin.000051 ',
-> Master_log_pos = 254105;
③ Run start slave.

So I tried and found the same error. I followed the error message and read the error log:

The following errors are frequently found:
 

Ist: 0x00002ab038100ab0 *** listed in the index, but failed to stat

So, I read the index info file under the MySQL data file directory, and found that the Centos64-relay-bin.index file contains an exception: MySQL master-slave error solution: Failed to initialize the master info structure

Normally, this file is correct only when the bin-log file name is recorded, for example:
 

/Centos64-relay-bin.002064
/Centos64-relay-bin.002065
/Centos64-relay-bin.002066
/Centos64-relay-bin.002067
/Centos64-relay-bin.002068
/Centos64-relay-bin.002069
/Centos64-relay-bin.002070

Therefore, rename the Centos64-relay-bin.index file mv, and then restart MySQL, re-follow the above steps taken from the Internet: reset, change master, start successfully done!
If you have encountered a similar problem, follow the three steps provided on the internet to try it. If the error is similar to this article, please take a special look at these files in the MySQL data directory:
Mysql-bin.index
Relay-log.info
Host Name-relay-bin.index
You can try to rename or remove them, restart MySQL, and perform the preceding three steps again!
