slony1 replication question

[SHARMILA JOTHIRAJAH <sharmi_jo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I need some help with slony...

I read the slony manual and tried to replicate the database as given in this... http://www.slony.info/documentation/firstdb.html

These are the steps that I did.
1. set the shell variables like clustername,masterdbname etc thro export command
2. created a user 'josh' with 'somepassword'
3. createdb -O $PGBENCHUSER -h $MASTERHOST $MASTERDBNAME
    createdb -O $PGBENCHUSER -h $SLAVEHOST $SLAVEDBNAME
    pgbench -i -s 1 -U $PGBENCHUSER -h $MASTERHOST $MASTERDBNAME
4.createlang -h $MASTERHOST plpgsql $MASTERDBNAME
5.pg_dump -s -U $REPLICATIONUSER -h $MASTERHOST $MASTERDBNAME | psql -U $REPLICATIONUSER -h $SLAVEHOST $SLAVEDBNAME
6. pgbench -s 1 -c 5 -t 1000 -U $PGBENCHUSER -h $MASTERHOST $MASTERDBNAME

7. slony1 was configured using --perltools option. I copied slon_tools.conf-sample to slon_tools.conf and placed it in the /etc dir. This is my conf file (deleted the commented lines here for clarity)

if ($ENV{"SLONYNODES"}) {
    require $ENV{"SLONYNODES"};
} else {
  
    $CLUSTER_NAME = 'slony_example';
    $LOGDIR = 'export/home/josh/slony1';   
   
    $MASTERNODE = 1;
    add_node(node     => 1,
             host     => 'localhost',
             dbname   => 'pgbench',
             port     => 5432,
             user     => 'josh',
             password => 'somepassword');

    add_node(node     => 2,
             host     => 'localhost',
             dbname   => 'pgbenchslave',
             port     => 5432,
             user     => 'josh',
             password => 'somepassword');
}
$SLONY_SETS = {
    "set1" => {
        "set_id" => 1,
        "table_id"    => 1,
        "sequence_id" => 1,
        "pkeyedtables" => [
                          'accounts',
                          'tellers',
                          'branches',
                          ],
        "serialtables" => ["history"],           
    },
};
if ($ENV{"SLONYSET"}) {
    require $ENV{"SLONYSET"};
}
1;

<stdin>:4: PGRES_FATAL_ERROR select "_slony_example".subscribeSet(1, 1, 2, 't');  - ERROR:  Slony-I: subscribeSet(): set 1 not found

What is this error? What am I doing wrong here? When i check the pgbenchslave  database, the table rows are not replicated?
Please advice
Thanks
josh
