MySQL table replication on the same server I have one the same server (Linux) two databases: db1 and db2 and I want to replicate db1.table1 to db2.table1

I added the following lines to my.cnf and restarted mysql service

replicate-do-table = db2.table
replicate-rewrite-db  = database1-&gt;database2


but it's not working. Are those commands correct ? Do I need to set permissions on both databases ?

mysql version: 5.5.25a 

Thanks in advance
MySQL Replication was designed to replicate data between two MySQL Instances, not two MySQL Databases within the same instance.

What you need to do is write triggers in db1.table1 to write the same changes to db2.table1.

See my old post How to set up triggers in MySQL for copying a field for some ideas.
