Unable to read master log position while setting up MySQL slave

Hi I am trying to setup a data replication server.
I am using MariaDB and phpMyAdmin to interface with the 2 DB’s

I have set up my master with adding the following configuration to my my.ini file

server-id=691391
log_bin=mysql-bin
log_error=mysql-bin.err
binlog_do_db=mytestdb

I have then restarted the MySQL server so that phpMyAdmin now shows that it is set up correctly as a master as seen in the screenshot below:

I have then logged into my slave DB with phpMyAdmin and tried to connect it as a slave. When I enter in the details of the slave user that I have already created, I get the error message on the slave

Unable to read master log position. Possible privilege problem on master

Does anyone know what the issue could be here as I cant seem to work it out.

Thanks

You need to give privileges to replicate the Master.

Below is the example.

in Master DB to give privileges.

CREATE USER 'replication_User'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE ON *.* TO 'replication_User'@'%';
flush privileges;

Run below command on slave db to see master status.

SHOW MASTER STATUSG;

Run below command on Master to see slave status.

SHOW SLAVE STATUSG;
