What does the "Error updating slave list: query error" mean?

This can happen if the slave user doesn't have the proper permission to
connect to the master.

First, run the mysql_fix_privilege_tables script if you have upgraded
from an older version of MySQL.

Then, grant the slave user either "REPLICATION SLAVE" (MySQL 4.0.2 or
newer) or "FILE" (older versions) privilege, as described in the manual
section 4.10.3.
