Answer 1

there could be couple of issues

1. master did not know about slave.
2. slave and master are not in sync with relay log file.

you have to sync the slave with master from where it did not updated. then you start slave. it should work fine.

Answer 2

run a "show master status" on the master DB. It will give you the correct values to update your slave with. From your slave status, it looks like your slave has successfully connected to the master and is awaiting log events. To me, this means your slave user has been properly set up, and has the correct access. It really seems like you just need to sync the correct log file position. Careful, because to get a good sync, you should probably stop the master, dump the DB, record the master log file positions, then start the master,import the DB on the slave, and finally start the slave in slave mode using the correct master log file pos. I've done this about 30 times, and if you don't follow those steps almost exactly, you will get a bad sync.
