Mysql stopped running last week, I uninstalled it. Now I can't get the server running after four installs. I know I installed it right because I did it on my other computer in N.Y. I have all three working there php, mysql & phpadmin.

when I click mysqld.exe the dos box comes up and nothing. It won't load. Any ideas?
thanx, Tom

Did you delete the my.ini file in C:\WINDOWS before you reinstalled MySQL?

I remember having to do that manually. Just removing MySQL from Add Remove Programs does not remove that file. The existing file than can stall the new install.

Go to Control Panel, Administrative tools, services, find MySQL and start it. Check that it is also set to "Automatic".

That should solve the problem.
