参考环境配置：centos常用集群搭建配置参考

1.下载cannal

阿里云-GitHub
下载canal.deployer-1.1.4.tar.gz , 选择需要的包下载, 如以 1.1.4 版本为例

2.解压缩

mkdir /tmp/canal
tar zxvf canal.deployer-$version.tar.gz  -C /tmp/canal

解压完成后，进入 /tmp/canal 目录，可以看到如下结构

drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang  136 2013-02-05 21:51 bin
drwxr-xr-x 4 jianghang jianghang  160 2013-02-05 21:51 conf
drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang 1.3K 2013-02-05 21:51 lib
drwxr-xr-x 2 jianghang jianghang   48 2013-02-05 21:29 logs

3.配置修改

注：一个instance代表一个实例。一个实例用于同步一个数据库或集群。canal允许一个服务端启用多个instance，只要复制example这个样例实例文件夹，然后在对应的实例里面配置数据库信息即可。这里省略了集群配置，以及具体监听binlog相关的配置，均采用默认配置，相关的配置项可查看官方提供的说明。

vi conf/example/instance.properties

## mysql serverId
canal.instance.mysql.slaveId = 1234
#position info，需要改成自己的数据库信息
canal.instance.master.address = 127.0.0.1:3306 
canal.instance.master.journal.name = 
canal.instance.master.position = 
canal.instance.master.timestamp = 
#canal.instance.standby.address = 
#canal.instance.standby.journal.name =
#canal.instance.standby.position = 
#canal.instance.standby.timestamp = 
#username/password，这里需要在要同步的mysql中为canal建立用户，也可以直接使用已有的用户
canal.instance.dbUsername = canal  
canal.instance.dbPassword = canal
canal.instance.defaultDatabaseName =
canal.instance.connectionCharset = UTF-8
#table regex
canal.instance.filter.regex = .\*\\\\..\*

4.启动canalserver

sh bin/startup.sh

5.查看 server 日志

vi logs/canal/canal.log

2013-02-05 22:45:27.967 [main] INFO  com.alibaba.otter.canal.deployer.CanalLauncher - ## start the canal server.
2013-02-05 22:45:28.113 [main] INFO  com.alibaba.otter.canal.deployer.CanalController - ## start the canal server[10.1.29.120:11111]
2013-02-05 22:45:28.210 [main] INFO  com.alibaba.otter.canal.deployer.CanalLauncher - ## the canal server is running now ......

6.查看 instance 的日志

vi logs/example/example.log

2013-02-05 22:50:45.636 [main] INFO  c.a.o.c.i.spring.support.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer - Loading properties file from class path resource [canal.properties]
2013-02-05 22:50:45.641 [main] INFO  c.a.o.c.i.spring.support.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer - Loading properties file from class path resource [example/instance.properties]
2013-02-05 22:50:45.803 [main] INFO  c.a.otter.canal.instance.spring.CanalInstanceWithSpring - start CannalInstance for 1-example 
2013-02-05 22:50:45.810 [main] INFO  c.a.otter.canal.instance.spring.CanalInstanceWithSpring - start successful....

7.关闭

sh bin/stop.sh
