I am trying to install the Oracle MySQL Server and Workbench on a server computer running Windows 2008. For some reason I just can't install it - can someone give there opinion on the problem - I am uploading pictures of the installation process.
I downloaded the 32 15.8M version
Agreed
Here is where the first problem appears. The only two options I can actually choose are Default and Custom . i chose Custom because the only thing I can install is MySQL for Excel..
Custom
...
...
And at the end there is nothing installed
After choosing the setup type and product features, Do you get a chance to see the attached screen? with all components downloaded? installation image
If you could see that and click on execute the product must be installed.
-Don't forget to check if
*your account has Admin privileges to install.
*The machine in which you are trying to install has access to internet via installers
-If you still face the problem i would suggest you to download the file of size 230MB and try installation with that.

I am trying to install MySQL 8.0.23 version from the download page. I ran the .msi file several times and every time, I got the error "mysql installer did not find packages in the current bundle suitable for installation windows". I tried to find a solution online for more than an hour and I could not get the resolution to problem. I even ran it through CMD using admin privileges and still no use. I am installing on a laptop with the following configuration.
Windows 10, 64Bit with 16GB RAM, i7 Hexacore, 1TB SSD.
Can someone please help?
I suspect there is currently a server issue or something on Oracle/MySQL's end, I have tried the 8.0.22 and 5.7.33 Web installers and neither of them are able to find the list of packages to install.
One solution is to download the larger offline installer.
First you must uninstall the MySQL Web Installer, this can be done by opening Apps & Features, finding MySQL Installer - Community and clicking Uninstall.
Then from the MySQL Downloads page, download the larger 400MB MSI installer, once launched you should see a list of Available Products to choose from
Uninstalling the "MySQL Installer - Community" and redownloading and installing the full installer ~422MB from Downloads page worked for me.
After wasting so much time, I find the solution to install MySQL 8 on Windows x64 (64-bit) system.
Run the msi installer
Next (Even it wouldn't work)
Go to below path instead
C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Installer for Windows\Product Cache
Right click -> Install
mysql-8.0.23-winx64.msi
mysql-connector-c++-8.0.23-win32.msi
mysql-connector-c++-8.0.23-winx64.msi
mysql-connector-java-gpl-8.0.23.msi
mysql-connector-net-8.0.23.msi
mysql-connector-odbc-8.0.23-win32.msi
mysql-connector-odbc-8.0.23-winx64.msi
mysql-connector-python-8.0.23-windows-x86-32bit.msi
mysql-connector-python-8.0.23-windows-x86-64bit.msi
mysql-documents-8.0.23.msi
mysql-examples-8.0.23.msi
mysql-router-8.0.23-winx64.msi
mysql-shell-8.0.23-windows-x86-64bit.msi
mysql-workbench-community-8.0.23-winx64.msi
If nothhing else works, click on Looking for Previous GA versions? and downloaded the one with 500 ~ MB and that did the job for me.
I had the same issues and tried the solutions above which none worked for me.
I did the following and it worked:
In Add/Remove programs from the control panel uninstall all MySQL entries.
Delete all MySQL folders from C:\Program Files\MySQL
Make a restart to your computer
Reinstall using the large MSI installer (more than 400MB)
I tried a lot of steps. Uninstalling and installing it again for current version 8.0.23.
Following steps fixed the below error for me:
No Packages error MySQL did not find packages in the current bundle
suitable for Installation No Compatible servers were found.
Step 1: At first, uninstall and remove MySQL. That includes, uninstalling completely and removing all the remaining MySQL folders from the system.
Step2: Restart the system. Go to the official MySQL website Downloads section. On reaching, install the 2nd MySQL version (the larger one) as shown in the tutorial.
mysql-installer-community-8.0.23.0.msi
After downloading, under Setup Type, you need to choose Developer Default and keep all other steps similar.
Same problem here.
I try on Windows 10 Home edition.
I also try with version 8.0.22: same error.
EDIT 1 18/01/21 : also with large MSI installer (more than 400MB)
EDIT 2 19/01/21 : The problem has fixed. This was probably a problem on the mysql download servers.
The solution in my case was uninstalling MySql Workbench and the installer and then running the installer msi from scratch!
Delete the (mysql-installer-web-community-8.0.23.0.msi) one and download the (mysql-installer-community-8.0.23.0.msi) one. If still not working, right click uninstall, and then right click install again. Worked for me.
I used the bigger download package, mysql-installer-community-8.0.30.0 with 450M. Then I see below image along the way, clicking "Add", then picked the workbench, then green button appeared to move to the right pane, then "execute". Workbench is then installed
I have downloaded the MySQL from the following link:
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
Downloaded the version 8.0.0. I have OS X 10.10.5
Now, I suppose I need to configure a visual MySQL client on my laptop to write queries. For that, I have installed sequelpro (sequelpro.com).
I need help on following points:
- Since there are a number of sample databases which one can use to learn SQL, can you please guide me on few such databases. My objective is to learn advanced SQL.
- Also, how do I configure my client (sequelpro) to connect to that database so that I can run queries.
As of now, I am stuck with the following screenshot with no clue what to do next.
Thanks a lot. Screenshot here
Based on the fact you said in the comments you have OSX and you installed mysql manually without phpmyadmin I suggest you download and install mamp.
mamp
1: https://www.mamp.info/en/ is,
MAMP installs a local server environment in a matter of seconds on
your computer. It comes free of charge, and is easily installed. MAMP
will not compromise any existing Apache installation already running
on your system. You can install Apache, PHP and MySQL without starting
a script or having to change any configuration files! Furthermore, if
MAMP is no longer needed, just delete the MAMP folder and everything
returns to its original state (i.e. MAMP does not modify any of the
"normal" system).
Basically it is a fake server that runs on your computer. This will be yours for localhost development. You can use it to serve your localhost php applications, change versions of php and gives you a GUI for mysql which is phpmyadmin.
Once you install mamp
you might need to configure mamp to use the mamp mysql but most likley it will work out of the box. If you do run into any problems make sure you stop the instance of mysql you installed already before running mamp then trying to ran mamp again and it should be using the correct version.
I am trying to install MySQL v.5.7.16 along with the Workbench and Connectors.
All installation videos/tutorials show a Product Configuration step during installation. However, when I use the installer I never receive a Production Configuration step. I show a screenshot below. The Product Configuration should appear below the Installation step in the blue left-hand side menu as shown in the second picture.
I went through the same problem as well. What I did to fix it was simple:
Reopening the file, "MySQL Installer.exe"
You'll see the list of product you've installed. At the column "Quick Action," you'll see a word, "Reconfigure."
Hit it! Done!
Steps:
Uninstall MySQL products from your machine.
Delete "C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL" folder.
Go to "https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/8.0.html".
There are two options for "Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer", choose "(mysql-installer-community-8.0.22.0.msi)" version, instead of "(mysql-installer-web-community-8.0.22.0.msi)". The community installer is an offline installer, while web-community is an online installer.
Had the same issue. This worked well for me.
open the installer again from the start menu and click reconfigure.
I found reconfigure option for 3 of the installed items.
I successfully installed the SQL Community Server installer for 5.6.34. I made no changes to my firewall, etc.
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/5.6.html
MySQL may have a problem with the latest 5.7 installer, or I had a corrupted install that mostly worked but would not configure.
A few lessons learned:
The Product Configuration should appear as an option immediately
after selecting to install a specific version of SQL Server (x86 or x64) in the SQL Installer UI.
If anyone else has this problem, I suggest uninstalling the installer the first time you see this problem.
I found the following steps helpful:
relaunch your MySQL installer,
go to "my server" and reconfigure it,
set the root password
.. and it's done!
I am working with window application and want to create full setup of this application. I am using MySql to save/retrieve data. What I want, I want to install MySql on system if it doesn't exist on that system before installation of this application.
Simply I want my application to follow following steps before install:-
Check if MySql is exist on system or not.
Install MySql if it is not installed on system.
Finally after install required softwares to run this application the application should be install.
For this purpose i am using "InstallShield 2013". But when I am trying to make setup with this it doesn't allow MySql to appear in "Installation Requirements" section.
Please help me to resolve this that how InstallShield 2013 can allow MySql to appear in Installation requirements.
Check to see if the MySQL install creates any registry keys. If it does, then get the installer to check for a value in that path (using the registry search functionality) and store one of the values (the install directory for instance).
Then you check for that value you stored in the "installation requirements" section.
I have a VB Windows forms application that uses a mysql database to keep track of everything within the application.. The problem that I know will occur is that most of the applications users will not have MYSQL let alone know how to install it properly... To install the application on the users systems I am using the Visual Studio Setup Installer to handle creation of the msi files.. What needs to happen first is the installer needs to check to see if MYSQL is installed on the host system and verify server name.. If true then import database, if not then install followed by import database... The importing is not the issue here... How do I make the installer install mysql with controlled parameters such as server name, etc, etc. Any ideas on this??? I have hammered google for the past 3 hours looking for bread crumbs on this but to no avail...
Usually existing packages (like the MySQL installer) are added as prerequisites. Visual Studio setup projects do not support custom prerequisite creation. However, this can be done by manually generating the required manifests.
You can find the manifests structure here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229223(VS.80).aspx
These manifests can be generated automatically with the Bootstrapper Manifest Generator tool.
After generating the package manifests, you can add all these files (including the package) in a separate folder in the Visual Studio prerequisites folder, for example:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\
You can then select the prerequisite in your setup project properties page.
Well... that's a good question. The first thing that pops up in my mind:
You could build the check in your application instead of the installer and warn the user about it. If needed, you could provide another installer to make sure everything is available (MySQL and the database itself).
I hope it helps you further.
Yours sincerely,
Roland
