I have successfully downloaded the workbench and it works fine, however, in my C:/ProgramFiles/MySQL folder, only the workbench is there, and not the server itself. I can't add MySQL to my PATH, nor can I run any local server.
I downloaded it from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/, and I chose the 420.6M version for Windows, and ran it normally. Is it actually installed?
Uninstalled MySQL workbench and re ran the installer and it worked. The reason why, I'm guessing, is because I installed only the workbench awhile ago. When the new installer saw I had the workbench installed, it just stopped checking to install other products like MySQL server.

Downloaded and run the installer from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/
After installing it opened MySQL Workbench but I can't connect to localhost (I notice that the installer didn't ask for a root password), and I can't see a MySQL service in services.msc.
Is there something that I need to do -- in addition to running the installer -- to get it to work? (And is this documented?)
Run the installer for a second time and choose Reconfigure.
Installing my SQL for the first time, MySQL server seems to be missing in recommended windows installer. any download i try activates the default installer and it does not show mysql server.

Seems none of 8.0 is compatible with previous versions(x86). I had to install server version 5.7 manually(offline installer) with 6.2 workbench for mysql to run on 32bit pc.
i had to uninstall all cleanly or else the default installer would not provide with new packages that i downloaded.

I've been struggling with this problem for quite some time, I downloaded
'MySQL server' and 'workbench' and installed them, later I downloaded xampp and now there is a problem that xampp comes with its own mysql and is not able to trace my already installed version, So I want to give xampp the path to my already installed MySQL. I tried installing xampp with its own mysql but there was a conflict for ports between the two - sql(that came with xampp) and my MySQL.
When I am opening a local connection in MySQL, an error occurring while loading image search_sidebar.png.How can I solve this problem in MySQL? I have attached a screenshot of error showing
I am using MySQL Server 5.7 and MySQL Workbench 6.3 version 6.3.8
To repair without completely re-installing MySQL:
ON Windows 10
Go to Control Panel
Uninstall a Program
Find MySQL (In My Case MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE)
Right Click and select "Repair"
Once installation is complete, please restart MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE
Hopefully this resolves the issue for you.
Fixed by reinstalling and choosing Repair option.
Background
Previously, i upgraded MySQL Workbench from earlier edition to latest version 6.3.10. It worked fine for many days but one fine day after Windows restart it started showing Error while loading image popup. I tried several times closing and starting MySQL Workbench but same popup appears each time.
Solution
I downloaded fresh copy of MySQL Workbench from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/file/?id=474210 and chose Repair option during installation. My databases and everything else is intact and working as before. Additionally, it resolved popup issue.
Note
There is no need to remove MySQL Workbench, just choosing Repair option during install worked for me.
I have removed Workbench from MySql Installer and Reinstall version 6.3.7
Now working...
i'm doing some test with xampp and mamp (on macos x snow leopard), sometime i switch between them just to play around , the issue that each of them have their own db in separated location :
xampp in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var/mysql/
mamp in /Applications/MAMP/db/mysql/
I don't want to deal with 2 separated mysql db data, i just want to have one , so i can share it to both xampp and mamp (not at the same time). I can update my db without worrying to update another db. Is this implementation is possible ? Does anyone know how to do it without any conflict ?
i'm using mac (so it's mamp), but this can be implemented on other system as well.

I did something like this on Linux. I needed to run two different versions of PHP but use one MySQL database. I had Apache/PHP installed in Linux as normal and I also installed XAMPP to run a different version of Apache/PHP.
Your setup is similar so the following should work so that both MAMP and XAMPP use the MAMP MySQL database.
I changed the PHP config in XAMPP to use my main MySQL db. Like so:
Locate the file php.ini in XAMPP (mine was in the the etc/ folder of XAMPP).
Open the file in a text editor of your choice and find the default socket it uses for MySQL.
Change this to use the socket
provided by MAMP.
mysql.default_socket = /path/to/mamp/mysqld/mysqld.sock
Save the file and restart Apache in XAMPP.
There is no need to start MySQL in XAMPP anymore as PHP should use the socket connection from MAMP.
XAMPP should now use the database from MAMP.
This should work :)
I thinks it should be possible. Give a try to following technique.
You can start XAMPP. Now Your Apache and PHP of XAMPP will work with mysql of XAMPP.
You can start XAMPP then stop Apache and PHP service of XAMPP. Then start MAMP. Stop mysql service of MAMP. Now Yor Apache and PHP of MAMP will work with mysql of XAMPP.
