Try to set:

# You need this in single mode
REPLICAONSLAVE="no"
OPLOG="no"

That fixed it for me.

Thank you @pcdummy that worked perfect. I would say this should be the default behaviour in the commited file. I would submit a pull request but it doesn't look like the owner is responding as there is an active pull request from 2016...
