Fail on installing mysql server 8.0 on windows 10 - mysql

MySQL server installation fail
I have already installed visual studio 2017 but got this error every time, even when I install mysql server 5.7 . Anyone know to fix this? Thank you.

Can you give us some more info?
Did you try closing all background apps and checked the firewall?
Did you use the MSI-installer or something else?
Did you run it as administrator?

Can't install mysql server on windows

I'm trying to install a mysql server on my win 10 machine. I've downloaded the installer from here, but when I open it, it finds an installed version of mysql server on my computer (which I thought I had uninstalled something like a month ago). I tried to remove it from the installer, but it fails when it reaches 50%, and I also cannot find any mysql file on my computer. Can anyone of you help me removing the thing I have on my computer to make a new fresh install on mysql server, please?
Thanks,
Lorenzo

MySQL5.6 stuck on the process " attempting to start service "

I got a community server version of MySQL5.6 for windows7 32 bit.
and also downloaded windows installer for the same windows version.
Everything was prepared correctly.
I saw on a blog giving me a step-by-step manual for installing MySQL 5.6 on winodws7 32bit.
I did the instruction accordingly and it always stops processing in the phrase of starting service. I completely don't know what the problem is.
I googled it for like three hours and got nothing relevant to this problem.
It never processes any further without any kind of alerts, no matter how much I wait.
Please help me out.
My OS
Windows7 Ultimate K 32bit, Service Pack1
TURN OFF WINDOWS FIREWALL COMPLETELY BEFORE INSTALLING
This was one of the only threads I could find on this issue and the current answers did not cut the mustard for me.
MySQL 5.6.21, both x86 and x64, did not want to get past "Starting Server" and would give me the "MySQL install taking longer than expected" message.
I tried all of the registry cleaner, folder deletions, etc to no avail.
I am running Windows 7 x64 and I finally decided to check the event viewer to find this:
0x80070422 turns out to be some unspecified firewall error and boom, it struck me like lightning.
I hope this post helps future visitors!
Have you installed other version of MySQL before? I have experienced this case ,but I installed MySQL5.5 and uninstalled it. I solved it by clearing regedit and deleting the folder of MySQL in the directory(C:\ProgramData.This directory is hidden by default in Windows.),then reinstalled it.
Follow this link http://tadeparti.com/pages/?page_id=808.
And do remember to delete everything under the C:\program files\mysql folder, including the odbc stuff if you have.

Unable to unistall mysql installer

I had some issues while installing MySQL the first time and it threw up some errors. When I tried to uninstall and reinstall I am unable to uninstall the MySQL Installer. Is there anything I can do to rectify this?
OS : Windows 7 (32 BIT)
I know this answer is a bit too late, but I've encountered the same problem, so I hope it could help others.
Steps:
Find the version of installed MySQL installer (I could not find specific version, so I used the installation date and downloaded the corresponding version in MySQL archived downloads page) and download it.
Run it and choose to uninstall all the components. The installer itself will still be installed.
Right click on the downloaded installation file (i.e. mysql-installer-web-community-5.7.17.0.msi) and choose "Uninstall".
did you try to uninstall MySQL Installer in Safe Mode?
If you don't know how to boot in Safe Mode follow these steps :
1- Start your computer
2- Press on the F8 key during all the time on booting
3- Safe Mode menu will appear and chose Safe Mode...
Then, go in your Control panel of windows and try to uninstall MySQL.
I think the problem is because MySQL is starting automatically when you log into windows. So, MySQL service is always running and when a service is running you can't uninstall it..
Hope it's help,
Dave

Why can't I install SQL Server SP1 (KB968369)?

I have a Windows Server 2008 x64 machine. I have the "Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 (KB968368)" as an "optional" update available from Windows Update. I choose to install it, my computer installs it for a while, I restart, and that update is available again. Why doesn't my computer install it?
Thank you.
Not sure, but I had the same problem. Did you ever do an "Edition Upgrade" in the SQL Server 2008 installer? Many users who did such an upgrade are reporting problems with the update package. For me, it wasn't a mission-critical system, so I just uninstalled the whole shebang and then reinstalled.
Other workarounds at Microsoft Connect. These people have problems when it's installed on the same machine as Visual Studio.
FWIW, I find the entire setup experience for SQL Server 2008 to be absolutely miserable.
I think I got the same problem before. I googled around and found that's a known issue My solution is to check something like "don't notify this updates".
do you have any errors in your event log?
I found that I couldn't install it using windows update, I had to manually download it and it installed first time. I also has this problem for SQL 2005 sp2
I solved it. I deleted the PendingFileRenameOperation key in the registry (backed up that registry branch first), ran the install, restarted and it is now in my installed updates list.
