How It Affects Your App
The error ER_SLAVE_WAS_NOT_RUNNING indicates that the slave server is not running, which can have a significant impact on an application. If the slave server is not running, the application will not be able to replicate data from the master server, which can lead to data loss or inconsistency. Additionally, the application may not be able to access the data stored in the slave server, which can lead to performance issues. In some cases, the application may not be able to function properly without the slave server running.
