|
|
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. _________________ My Abyss Websites!

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. _________________ Andy (AbyssUnderground) (previously The Inquisitor)
