I'm having difficulty getting binary logging to run. My system is a Debian 3.0r2 system running MySQL-server 4.0.16-log. I have added "log-bin" to my my.cnf file. However, when I restart MySQL I don't get a binary log anywhere. When I run SHOW MASTER STATUS, I receive an empty set. I'm sure there is something simple that I've missed... but I can't find any documentation of what it could be.
