I had this problem a year ago, Aug 2024 
<https://lists.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2024-August/040625.html>. 
I went rounds and rounds with Strahil for a week, trying to find why I 
couldn't cross the finish line of successful georep. It always ends in:

Please check gsync config file. Unable to get statefile's name
geo-replication command failed

The volumes were set up properly, the commands for georep were done 
correctly, per guidelines, but georep was left forever in a state of 
Created, never Active.

Finally I just gave up. I can't use gluster if it won't work with me. I 
found that gluster would not give enough adequate diagnostics to provide 
a (/useful/!) explanation of what is actually wrong.
