This question may have many forms, but for me I want the wizard to display the default installer menu as the first time you install MySQL
My installer keeps showing this menu, instead of this which is shown in the tutorial videos I see
One issue to address is that I have tried to install MySQL once before and for some reason I was just stuck in the middle of installation and didn't get to end it. Therefore it may seem that this caused the issue I am currently experiencing
To try solve the problem I tried to uninstall it on the Programs and Features there are two programs the MySQL Installer - Community and the My SQL Connector Net 8.0.19.
I can easily uninstall the MySQL Installer - Community but the Connecter doesn't seem to be uninstalled. I also tried to delete the remaining files that may be left on the computer
Also, I have not found these folders,
C:\Program Files\MySQL
C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL
C:\ProgramData\MySQL
C:\Users[User-Name]\AppData\Roaming\MySQL
I may have deleted them also before, I have seen in another forum to try to delete these folders, but no luck.
I hope there will be a solution for this or even an alternative so that I can use MySQL.
Check if you have residual files on "Program Files" or the instalation folder, i had a similar problem and i fixed it this way

I didn't get option to set root password of mysql during installation. Now, I am unable to form instance I am beginner in mysql I have tried reinstallating the software watching youtube still didn't got that option.
Actually I had solved this problem the day after posting this question.. My main problem was I was not getting wizard for saving information regarding root password port and etc. I figured after installing quite a few time that I have been clicking on update before the actual product installation as that was first question before installing... Not having previous verison of mysql I was unable to get root wizard i.e I was able to install product but while create database or server I was having trouble with password because it was not set while installation process... Clicking on no before installation for update solved my issue
This might be useful if you have installed mySql community server.
Download MySQL Installer from here if you haven't already, then open the installer and you might see some products listed in the section, then click on reconfigure of mySQL Server, it will take you through the instructions of setting up few things including your password(which you'll probably find after clicking "next" a few windows).
Having trouble with the testlink installation. At the beginning of the installation it's giving me a warning saying:
"Failed! MySQL Database cannot be used." and after I try to install it shows me this "Checking PHP DB extensions Warning!: Your PHP installation don't have the mysql extension mysql- without it is IMPOSSIBLE to use Testlink.Failed!".
I installed Xampp before this, so I should have MySql, right? If it matters, I had to switch the Apache port numbers to 8080.

I faced similar issue, tried all given answers on different forums, but nothing worked for me unless I downgraded the version of Xampp to 32 bit installer version 5.6.36. Link which simply solved the problem.
As per my understanding issue is testlink [mysql] is not compatible with the latest version of PHP.
I followed this article to install but here also people faced similar issue as you can see comment section and there is no response from author on same. Rest of the article was very helpful.
I solved this issue configuring the extensions for SQL in file xampp's php.ini
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll
extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll
DLLs should be in the path of the xampp installation, in my case C:\xampp\php\ext\**
Click config then click PHP (php.ini) and add then following three lines
extension=php_mssql.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll

htis help me to fix it
Some versions of PHP are not compatible with MySQL. Try reinstalling PHP using version 5.6
I'm trying to get Drupal 7.28 installed on Ubuntu and have run into this very common but not so easily fixed issue of the WSOD during configuration due to the database not being properly set up on an earlier step (only 31 tables created). https://www.drupal.org/node/481758
Many people have fixed this issue by dropping the database and recreating it, which I've tried, but when I try to run /install.php again it insists that it is already installed and I must empty the database if I want to reinstall.
So I tried deleting the database and NOT recreating it but the installer still says it is already installed and I have to empty the database WHICH DOES NOT EXIST if I want to reinstall.
What do I need to do to get the install script to run again?
Ahh. I needed to go back to the default settings.php for the site, then it worked.
in /var/www/drupal/sites/mysite.com
mv settings.php old_settings.php
cp default.settings.php settings.php
Now going to mysite.com/install.php starts over at the beginning of the install.
I've been stupid enough to delete too many databases in XAMPP with PHPMyAdmin and now my sites on localhost don't run properly anymore. Please see this screenshot of the main errors
I guess entirely reinstalling XAMPP will fix the problem but that might take much more time than necessary. Preferably, I'd like to just reinstall the MySQL component or perhaps recreate/repair some databases required for XAMPP to function properly. However, it looks as if I can only reinstall XAMPP entirely instead of separate components (and if that's correct, it's probably for a reason...).
Do I have a better option here than a complete reinstall of XAMPP?
OK, fixed it with the kind help of scones.
1) By default (XAMPP 1.8.1 on Windows XP), there seems to be a folder C:\xampp\mysql\backup\phpmyadmin. Just copy-paste this entire folder into C:\xampp\mysql\data.
2) Stop and restart MySQL
3) If you're using WordPress, your pages may be blank since it may think there are no themes available. Go to [frontpage url]/wp-admin/. Now just reactivate the theme you'd like to use and all seems up and running again!
You dropped the database for PHPMyAdmin. If you can just restore that (with a command line mysql tool or any tool that does not rely on a web-interface), you can use phpmyadmin again.
I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this question but I am facing an issue with MySQL installed failing to recognize office 2013 and install MySQL for Excel.
Basically MySQL
https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/
Has an addin for excel that allows you to automatically connect to a database and make changes. During the MySQL installation it checks for requirements, one of which is Excel 2007 or greater. And that requirement is not met for me.
I am running Office 2013 Pro Plus (64bit) and Installing MySQL (64bit)
Can someone help? Is there any other application that you recommend?
I dont want to import and export data or files manually.
I need an application that opens all the tables in separate sheets that I can manually change and automatically save to the DB.
Any advice appreciated.
Looks like this is a known bug:
For now please try the following workaround:
Launch the MySQL Installer (if already installed launch it from Start Menu > MySQL > MySQL Installer).
Try to do a Full Installation (but you do not have to actually install them).
Go to C:\Program Data\MySQL\MySQL Installer\Product Cache
See if you have there the MySQL for Excel MSI and launch it manually.
I would look these other topics on Google.
This bug is fixed as of MySQL for Excel 1.2.1. However, due to the nature of this bug, you must manually uninstall previous versions of MySQL for Excel before installing v1.2.1+.
I faced the same problem. You can download the mysql_for_excel standalone .msi file here: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/excel/
After that copy the .msi to C:\Program Data\MySQL\MySQL Installer\Product Cache
and execute it. Restart the excel. Done
Then in the Data tab you can see this
I have a same problem in Mysql 8.0.17 and the Mysql for excel not showing in the data tab, after install and uninstall several time finally found the problem in the adds-in for user of my windows. You must open the excel app by [open as administrator] Mysql for excel appeared after this.
