I've successfully installed MySQL 8.0.27 with Workbench 8.0.27 on Windows 10, but when I try to launch Workbench it's just not starting or even appears in task manager.
After googling around a bit I found that I have to install the following:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2
Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019.
so I download & installed them, still Workbench doesn't want to start!!!
Things I've tried to do:
uninstall & reinstall Workbench version 8.0.27 & 8.0.18.
restarting my computer
installing visual studio 2013 (but on drive E and not C).
installing a number of Visual C++ 2019 Redistributable including 2010, 2013 for both x64 & x86.
installing Python 3.10 with adding it to PATH variable.
Following Links didn't help:
MySQL Workbench not opening on Windows

Install this first package installer in which you will get the whole package installer and also include workbench and co-related things.
I guess you downloaded the Windows installer for MySQL to install both the server and Workbench. You did not mention it in your question, so I want o ensure we have a common start point.
Python 3.10 changed a few things that might not work with MySQL Workbench 8.0.27. So, better go back to Python 3.9 for the time being.
If that still doesn't work we need to look at your WB log file.
I just ran
sfc /scannow
in CMD under Administrative privileges & it worked!
when i click on reconfigure it gives following screen
I'm trying to install mysql in windows 7 and I have downloaded mysql installer from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/
I started installing it but after some time it gives the following error:
no compatible server found.
I searched a lot for this, however I'm not able to install mysql on my system. Please give me some suggestions.
Is there any other software that has dependency to install mysql?
when i click on add it gives following screen
download and install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable. it worked for me
I too had the same issue. What i did was,
1- uninstall the msi community installer.
2- Install visual c++ 2019 Redistributer package (https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads) ([])
3- Now install MySql Workbench from (https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/)
NOTE: Download the Windows (x86, 64-bit), MSI Installer 8.0.20 35.6M
Download.
4- Now install the msi community installer that you've uninstalled in step 1
(Link:https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/8.0.html)
NOTE: Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer 8.0.20 420.6M
Download [For both 64 & 32 bit ] - (mysql-installer-community-8.0.20.0.msi)
Now the workbench will be added. Add the server from the installer and now we are good to go...
Thanks for the opportunity and knowledge
This error may be resolved by installing appropriate visual C++ version. for 5.7 its VC++ 2013 and for 8.0 its VC++ 2015.
After VC++ install rerun the installation and reinstall just server seperate. Configure it.
Then install any other tools like client etc,
(server installs with command line (Which was enough for my needs)
Steps:
Install MySQL Server from "MySQL Installer - Community" (already installed in your system.
While installing you would be asked to setup a server, so, just leave everything as it is and just put up a password and click next.
No after installation again you will see "MySQL Installer - Community". Then click "reconfigure" right in front of (see image in link below).
Then you will see the server in options. Just click it and enter password. (NOTE: let the username be "root", don't change it).
After doing all this MySQL will be installed.

Trying to install the latest version of MySQL Server - 5.7.19 - on a clean Windows server machine using the MySql installer MSI package.
On first attempt it told me it needed a prerequisite of the Visual Studio 2013 Redistributable and installed it. When trying to install the server, however, it then complains:
1: Action 10:59:21: INSTALL.
1: 1: MySQL Server 5.7 2: {F08E9C75-A42E-4962-8760-4CBD9CF35D7A}

Please install the Redistributable then run this installer again.

I've tried rebooting the machine - problem persists.
I've checked in the registry to ensure Windows knows the package is installed, which it does.
I've tried installing the previous version of MySql and that installs fine.
So I cleaned out all the installations and re-ran the package, this time also selecting Workbench, Shell and some other useful tools. All of it installed fine - except the Server. That's still demanding the redistributable which is already installed.
Where can I go from here?
I had the same issue today while installing MySQL 5.7 and not sure how shall I proceed and found your questions. I was sure that I have installed the 64bit version of Visual C++ Redistributable Packages on my machine. Then I installed a 32-bit version of the same package (URL: https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=40784) and the MySQL Installer detected that and proceed with the installation.
Looks like the installer was looking for 32bit install path. Hope this help.
I had a similar issue while installing MySQL 5.7.19 where I was installing the x64 version of visual C++ redistributable and it refused to work. Eventually was able to get around it in a similar way to Prabhat, but installed the x86 version instead. Working so far.
Would have commented this on Prabhat's answer, but reputation restrictions.
I had a same issue, I tried multiple times, even removed multiple version of the Visual Studio Redistribute 2013, but MySql V5.7 didn't get install. I tried both x86 and 64 bit, but result was same.
Solution:
I have downloaded MySql Version 5.6 instead of 5.7, then its gets installed like a charm.
Note:
Seems like there must be some issue with the MySql V 5.7 installer.
For a 64-bit MySQL server installation, I suggest updating the 64-bit version of the Visual Studio 2013 Redistributable Package (in my case from 12.0.30501 to 12.0.40660); the Redistributable Package update can found here. I came across this solution on this MySQL Forum post, but used the answer by Prabhat (on a different server) before and it worked too.
What you need to do is to install the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013, doesn't matter if you have installed the ones of 2015 for some reason. Install both x86 and x64 versions. Here's the link to the installers. Hope it works for you, it did for me.
I also had a problem installing MySQL 5.7.19 because installation claimed C++ Redistributable 2013 not installed when both 16 and 32 bit version were already installed. None of the other answers here worked for me.
What I discovered is that after repairing my C++ Redistributable, the installer then found it.
After checking the solutions posted by users in this thread, both solutions (either installing runtime for both architectures 32 and 64 bits or installing a newer version of runtime) work.
The better solution is to install the newer version of VC++ 2013 x64 runtime. Please make sure you are installing the one with a file version of 12.0.40660.0 as the one the MySQL Installer currently installs is version 12.0.30501.0, and any with this or lower version may cause errors. Thanks to Jafeth Carrillo Salas for the best solution, and to all other users that contributed with other workarounds.
We will fix this issue using the newer runtime version, you can track the status at this MySQL bug link.
My computer system language is Chinese.
At first,i install English version of visual c++ 2013 , it can't work.
And than, i uninstall visual c++ 2013(en). install visual c++ 2013(cn).
it works.
Try following steps:
step 1. Got to https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=40784
step 2. Click for downloading Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013
step 3. Check vcredist_x64.exe for 64 bit or vcredist_x86.exe for 32 bit
step 4. Click next and after downloading Install vcredist_** in your machine
After then relaunch MySQL installer and repeat the mysql installation process.
I've looked everywhere online, but it doesn't look like anyone has been able to resolve this issue.
When I download and try to install MySql Workbench, I get prompted to install Visual C++ Redistributable package (2015) to be installed. The wizard then takes me directly to this website in order to install it.
However, whenever I try to install either, it just tells me they're already installed.
After googling this for about an hour, I found some other people had this problem which apparently was resolved by following the instructions from this website. I downloaded instaedit and followed the instructions, but I continue to get the same error.
I've been at this for two days now and am going to go crazy. If someone can help me with this I'd be very grateful. I'm using Windows 10,
It turns out that VC++ 2017 redistributables are the culprit because they delete the registry keys used by VC++ 2015 redistributables.
See this Microsoft Developer Community page for solution (TL;DR; you have to repair VC++ 2017 redistributables as this will restore missing 2015 registry keys).
This process is as Eric describes:
The steps are essentially: go to Programs in Control Panel (or "Add or Remove Programs" in Windows 10's "Settings"), find the Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable, click it and choose Change/Modify, then choose "Repair
I got it working running latest mysql-workbench.msi from cmd.exe with escalated permissions:
run cmd.exe as Administrator
cd to folder where msi resides
run it
Tried and tested.
I was getting an error: mysql workbench requires the visual c++ 2019 redistributable package to be installed
I visited the link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
Downloaded and installed the file, And boom it was working.
None of the solutions work for me until I install the old version:
mysql-workbench-community-6.3.8-winx64.msi
I tried the solutions posted here, but continued to run into the same errors. Oddly enough, installing an older version of Workbench actually resolved the problem. I wasn't exactly happy about this because I went to school and they showed us the most recent one, but this is the easiest and most direct solution.
If you have Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x64) or (x86), please uninstall them both and run again the MySql Workbench installer.
After the installation is done, install back Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable packages.
Here is the link to download MS V C++ 2017 Redist. :
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
First try to uninstall completely Visual C++ Redistributable package (2015) and install it again. If that does not help please try something else:
Open regedit and try to find key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64
if you see that keys check value Installed=1 (DWORD)
If you found these keys and you got message about not installed c-runtime try to use processmonitor from sysinternals https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/processmonitor and check if you have access to registry.
If you don't have these keys in your registry you can try to create it manually
and see if that helps.
I ran into this same problem and wanted to avoid installing an old version. I got success downloading the 32 bit visual studio version from:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=48145
I suspect it has something to do with the pathing in the installer which only identifies the 32 bit version of the visual studio library.
Uninstall VC Redistributable 2017 x64 x86 from your computer.
Install VC Redistributable 2015 x64 x86 to your computer.
Install MySQL Workbench 8.0 to your computer.
Run MySQL Workbench 8.0 and close it.
Install VC Redistributable 2017 x86 x64 to your computer.
Run MySQL Workbench 8.0
In my environment, I was able to fix this issue by repairing "Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable" both (x64) and (x86). Yes, it sounds funny that the version I repaired was 2017 instead of 2005, but it worked for me. Here's the steps:
Go to Control Panel > Uninstall a program
Highlight Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x64) and/or Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x86)
Click Change button
Click Repair
The installer may prompt you to reboot your machine
Repeat the steps above if both x64 and x86 versions are installed.
After rebooting machine, I was able to install MySQL Workbench.
I had the same experience, it simply needed Administrative rights; launch with admin or launch command prompt as an admin (administrative privileges) and then launch the latest installer (I installed 8.0 successfully this way).
See below image of command prompt (must show "Administrator:" in title) and successful installation from this window
I have been in the same situation and I resolved this problems following the next steps:
Using Windows
Open Control Panel.
Select Install and uninstall programs
Find Visual C++ Redistributable 2015.
Select it, Wait for the dialog box, and choose Repair
Later, reapeat the same step, in (x86) version.
Remember, Apply this only 2015 version.
This has been reported as a bug on the MySQL Bugs site:
https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=91953
other similar bugs 87570, 88000, 88338, 85908,
A common error appears to be not having .NET upto date,
while other possible solutions include:
Downloading mysql for visual studio 1.2.8
Manually create the Key for Visual Studio 2015 (not recommended)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\Setup\VS
WorkRound that worked for me
- stop Visual C++ 2017 dependant programs
- remove Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable
- install Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable
- install 'MySQL Workbench 8.0.12'
- run 'MySQL Workbench 8.0.12' (need to run and close before updating to 2017)
- close 'MySQL Workbench 8.0.12'
- re-install Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable.
The issue here is permissions. When running the MSI, AND if your local policy is set to (prompt for everything), you will encounter this issue because the MSI isn't prompting for credentials to browse the registry to look and see if c++ redistributable is installed.
Solution.
Run the msi as an admin.
how i did that:
download and open the workbench msi in a msi editor, like InstEd. from within InstEd, run the package as an admin.
The best solution to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Package is by:
1 - Select the Start button > All programs > Windows Update.
2 - In the left pane, select Check for updates.
3 - If any important updates are found, select the link to view available updates. In the list of updates, select Service Pack for Microsoft Windows (KB976932) and then select OK.
4 - Select Install updates. Administrator permission required
You might be asked for an admin password or to confirm your choice.
5 - This is Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (KB976932) Page Here
My situation: I have installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x64) and (x86) but the Mysql installer(8.0) requires a 2015 version.
After I uninstalled the 2017 version to try to install a 2015 one, whatever times I did installing&uninstalling of 2015 version, the installer just could not detect that I have installed the 2015 version. Then I checked the regidit and found out that there was no key and value for the 2015 version.
Solution:
Then I reinstalled the 2017 version with the 2015 version installed in my computer before. It works fine. The Mysql installer is able to detect the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015. And the regidit has the key and value for version 2015 & 2017. What's interesting is it seems that the version of 2017 & 2015 share the same key root in regidit, which is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64.
Thanks for some of the threads which really open my thought.
When I tried to install MySQL Workbench 8.0.12 for my windows 10 pro x64bit (version 1803) I have faced same issue but after few try i find Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package x86 & x64 for 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 & 2017 already installed but there is no 2015 version which is required by MySQL Workbench 8.0.12. But when i tried to install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 it says already installed. To solved it i just uninstalled 2017 and then install 2015 after that reinstall 2017 and then installed MySQL Workbench and everything worked just fine.

An incorrect version of vc_redist.x86 was creating issue in my win 10 machine. Uninstalled this and installed vc_redist.x64. After this the workbench installation got completed successfully.
You just need to update the 2017 C++ Redistributable, because that is causing the issue.
As the Mysql need 2015 C++ Redistributable, but the 2017 one has deleted the registry of 2015.
Just update it.
Go to Control Panel -> Programs -> Programs and Features.
Select Microsoft C++ Redistributable, click on Change.
Then click on Repair.
Close once setup is successful.
After that you need to restart the computer.
(Remember to update both the x86 and x64 if you have two.)
I got installed without restarting.

I am a bit confused the link to use to install ejabberd on my windows XP box [http://www.ejabberd.im] ? What are the steps involved and dependencies there off?
=====UPDATE=====
I installed ejabberd windows version from link as mentioned in reply thread - but when I started the app it stated:
Starting ejabberd...
./ejabberdctl: e:\bin\erl.exe: can't execute: (14001) Error 14001
There is a problem starting Erlang.
If the error you see is 14001, you need to install:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package
You can download that installer from www.microsoft.com
You can also check the ejabberd Administrator Guide
But even after downloading the package http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=5638 and successfully installing I still get the same error?
Please let me know how to resolve the same?
You could install 2.1.11 using the installer provided by Process-One here. Windows installer for 2.1.13 is not there yet.
no additional dependencies are required as ejabberd installer includes a build of Erlang runtime.
But really I fail to see what's the problem with putting up a cheap box running some free OS (I'd personally recommend Debian) where ejabberd would be installable via the OS's package manager, and will be upgraded along with the rest of the OS when the next release comes out.
