(Windows 7) I just installed MySQL Server 5.7 using the MSI installer, therefore as I understand, it is installed as Windows Service.
I am having trouble launching the server using the command:
C:\>mysqld
After issuing this command in command line, nothing happens. The cursor just keeps blinking and I get stuck.
If I try to launch the server using Windows Services I get the following message:
"The MySQL104 service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."
*(MySQL104 is the server name that I specified during the installation)
Also if I try to run this service via command line as service using command:
C:\>net start MySQL104
I get the answer:
C:\>net start MySQL104
The MySQL104 service is starting.
The MySQL104 service could not be started.
The service did not report an error.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.
C:\>net helpmsg 3534
The service did not report an error.
Right now the only way for me to reboot the server is to reboot my whole system, for it starts automatically at system startup.
I am running the command line as administrator. I am out of ideas.
The service is actually started, with no logs. You can run queries. (the .err log file in data folder also says this).
Check the my.ini configure file
Check the my.err(the file name is depend on your configure) for any error information
Fix all the errors

I just installed MySQL using the community installer in hopes of running a server and creating a database for use in my C++ program. I installed the Server, Workbench, Shell, Router, and Connector/C++ before running the Workbench. Everything appeared to be working properly. The server was running and I was able to connect to it in my C++ program, so I started to create my database, when the power suddenly went out before I could finish.
Once the power came back on and my PC rebooted, I reopened the MySQL Workbench to find that I was unable to start the server. I clicked the 'Start Server' button several times, but was met with the error "Could not start server: argument 2: <class 'TypeError'>: wrong type".
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything, but when I reopened the MySQL Workbench after the installation was finished, I was met with the same error. Does anyone know what could have possibly happened?
EDIT: After uninstalling everything and deleting every trace of MySQL from my computer, I was able to reinstall everything and get the server running again. However now I'm getting the same error when I try to STOP the server: "Could not stop server: argument 2: <class 'TypeError'>: wrong type". What is going on????
I have the same issue and I've installed the developers default version of the MySQL-Workbench with the installer. I recently updated my hardware and reinstalled Windows 10, maybe it's a bug of Windows 20H2 or of the Workbench itself?
I found a workaround: Use the CMD or the Powershell to start or stop the MySQL-Service of the server. In my case, it has the name MySQL80. Take a look in your services of windows when the commands below are not working.
Use net start MySQL80 to start the server.
Use net stop MySQL80 to stop the server.
Remember to open the CMD or the Powershell as Administrator. I think this issue is a bug of the workbench itself because the service is start and stopable with the command line.
The first thing to try is to run mysqld --console from the MySQL server bin folder. That should give you more specific error messages.
In my case, the data folder was missing. I needed to run one of the mysqld --initialize... commands; see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/data-directory-initialization.html. On Windows, running mysqld --initialize... --console helps to see what server is doing.
Once that's done, you can run mysqld --console again to see if it starts successfully.
I solved this problem as follows. currently my.ini file encoding is UTF-8. you must change to ANSI.
I've done numerous suggestions and none work. Except this one:
Download and run the latest MySQL Installer.
A window will appear showing your installed services:
MySQL Server
MySQL Workbench
MySQL Shell
etc.
Click "reconfigure" on the MySQL Server and set up the server as you did previously.
My specific server setup was:
Type and Networking: leave as default
Authentication Method: (RECCOMENDED)
Accounts and Roles: Enter and check mysql password
Windows Service: Uncheck 'configure as a service'
Apply configuration: Execute
Server should be up and running.
in my case I had solve this way
Go to RUN----->Services.msc----->MYSQL80---->start server
hope this way problem will solved.
On my Windows installation the account the service runs under did not have (security) permissions to the non-existing data directory. After creating the data directory which was "Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\data" and setting permissions everything worked with a "net start mysql80".
Here are the steps I took to resolve my MySQL Workbench 8.0.23 issue
that resulted in an inability to start & stop the MySQL server process (mysqld)
from MySQL Workbench (O/S=Windows only answer)...
Close MySQL Workbench
In C:\Users<Your account>\AppData\Roaming\MySQL\Workbench\serverinstances.xml:
Replaced:
sc start MySQL80
sc stop MySQL80
With:
net start MySQL80
net stop MySQL80
Notes:
My mysqld service was installed w/ the name='MySQL80', replace/match this value to your actual service name.
My mysqld service was installed using a 'Network Service' account, verify that your service is also running as a network service before using the 'net' commands
Setup MySQLWorkbench CE 8.0 executable to 'Run As Administrator' so that the commands to start and stop the service run as an administrator:
In File Explorer find the MySQLWorkbench.exe executable:
E.g: C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 8.0\MySQLWorkbench.exe
In File Explorer, Select the exe, Right click on the exe, select 'Properties', select
'Compatibility' tab: specify 'Run This Program As An Administrator'
Start MySQL Workbench
Attempt to start or stop the MySql server process (mysqld)
Notes:
O/S = Windows 10 specific
MySQL & MySQL Workbench were installed via the MySQL CE 8.0.23 installer
Installed MySQL 8.0.23 as an upgrade from 5.7 to 8.0.23
If this error while starting/connecting the server from Workbench then you need to Go Start->MYsql workbench Installation Click.
Open and reconfigure the MySQL server with port number and Create Root user Password.
Finish this Re-configuration then open workbench. Provide the Port number and Credentials and connect to DB.
In window you may use task manager
just open task manager by search "task manager" in window search
Go to service and find Mysql (name depending on the name saved when initializing mysql server at first time)
Right click it and click start to start server or stop to stop server
This is my first MySql install from the ground up.
I am using Windows Server 2016, trying to install MySql 8.0.15. I am doing this to try and use it with php 7.3.1.
The install has all the listed prerequisites.
When I get the config section of mysql insstaller, it breaks on the first response with an error of "Beginning configuration step: Writing configuration file
Invalid server template
Ended configuration step: Writing configuration file"
The system event log has one error, "The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{8D8F4F83-3594-4F07-8369-FC3C3CAE4919}
and APPID
{F72671A9-012C-4725-9D2F-2A4D32D65169}
to the user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM SID (S-1-5-18) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool."
But I'm not sure this is even the right troubleshooting path to start down.
Can you assist with some guidance?
I had the same problem with the
mysql-installer-web-community.
The mysql-installer-community was working without a problem.
The bottom link is the none web installer which was working.
For me initially when I was not accepting the initial update mysql pop-up then installer was not working, but once I accepted it. Then it successfully worked for me.
I have been able to install after getting the same error.
I have changed the credentials for the sql root.
By default, host is set to something like %ALL_HOST%. I changed to localhost.
I ended up uninstalling all mysql 8 components that had already installed.
Then went back and got the mysql installer 5.7.25.0. I think I had some trouble after that, but it wasn't the same error. I finally ended up installing mysql 8.0.15 by itself and it worked. Then I went back and did the connectors. Next the workbench. Finally docs and samples. Doing them one at a time seemed to go better. I am now up and running.
Here's what I did to fix the issue
completely removed mySQL Server and Workbench installations.
uninstalled the mySQL web installer. Restarted my computer.
ran the mySQL web installer again (only installing mySQL Server)
downloaded the mySQL Workbench installer to install Workbench separately
MySQL Service don't start automatically on system bootup, and when I try to start MySQL service it shows the following output
C:\Windows\system32>net start MySQL
The MySQL service is starting.
The MySQL service could not be started.
The service did not report an error.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.
Please suggest some way to solve the problem, if you ever came across such a problem.
My MySQL80 server failed to start because my.ini was saved with UTF-8 encoding instead of ANSI.
Find my.ini by typing echo %PROGRAMDATA% at a command prompt and look for the MySQL directory.
Open my.ini in Notepad and use File -> Save As...
In the Encoding select list by the Save button, choose ANSI and save.
The easiest way to resolve the error where the service does not start is by going into the registry as Administrator.
Navigate to HKLM\System\ControlSet001\Services\MySQL Change image path to "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysql.exe" --defaults-file=C:\Program Files\MyNewSQL\bin\MyNewSQL.ini MyNewSQL
My problem (same as yours):
Current Registry Setting: C:\MySQLs\MySQLDev\bin\mysqld --defaults-file=C:/MySQLs/MySQLDev/MySQLDev.ini MySQLDev
Change Registry Setting to: C:\MySQLs\MySQLDev\bin\mysqld.exe --defaults-file=C:/MySQLs/MySQLDev/MySQLDev.ini MySQLDev
Rerun "net start MySQLDev"
The MySQLDev service is starting. The MySQLDev service was started successfully.
My MySQL Workbench is not connecting to my local host, and I cannot figure out why exactly it is reacting like this. It just started doing this one day, and randomly it will give me access although it says it is still "unknown", but I am tired of this and would like to fix it.
Since this website reqires that I have a "10" reputation to post images, I will have to describe it.
On the Startup/Shutdown tab in the administration page, it says:
The database server instance is unknown. --The "Start Server" button is faded out so that I cannot click it.
Startup Message Log
2013-07-11 08:57:51 - Workbench will use cmd shell commands to start/stop this instance
2013-07-11 08:57:51 - Status check of service 'MySQL' returned error: Not found
2013-07-11 08:57:51 - Status check of service 'MySQL' returned error: Not found

2013-07-11 09:02:01 - Status check of service 'MySQL' returned error: Not found
Then on the server status tab in the administration page, it says:
Name: mysqld#localhost
host: localhost
server:unknown
status: unknown
Connection
There is no connection to the MySQL server. This functionality requires an established connection to a running MySQL server to work.
If anyone can help out, that would be great!
Thanks
I had this problem on my Windows 8.1 machine and it turned out to be problems with the file permissions.
To repair it I went into the folder at "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6" and right clicked on the "data" folder and selected properties. Clicked the security tab and clicked edit. From there click the ADD button then the ADVANCED button and finally the FIND NOW button. In mine I added users, administrators, and "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES". I granted full control to the users that were already listed for the data folder and the users, administrators, and ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES.
After the permissions were repaired I opened a command prompt as administrator and changed to the "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin" directory cd "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin". From there you can execute mysqld --install which installs the MySQL service.
More information about installing the mysql service on windows can be found at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/windows-start-service.html
[edit] Please note that if you are using a different version of MySQL than the path to the MySQL data directory and bin directory may be different on your windows machine.
The error message says it: the service with the name MySQL cannot be found. So probably your MySQL service has a different name? Do you have a service at all? Starting mysql manually from the bin folder is just that: manual. There is no service involved, hence WB cannot manipulate the run state.
When you install MySQL with the MySQL installer you have everything in place within a couple minutes and it works right from the start.
So first check if you have a service running for your MySQL server and stop starting it manually. If there's a service take its name and enter it in the Windows Service Name field of the configuration manager:
Note that MySQL Workbench can manage your server only if it is installed as a Windows service.
I had this problem on my Windows 8.1, and I solved it updating my workbench to Version6 with "mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.16.0.msi" from the official page of mysql
I have found reinstalling all MySQL products a better alternative, because some of the solutions on the internet will make another instance of your mysql server along with mysql56, which might mess things up for a beginner.
Remember to keep database files and configuration undeleted during the reinstallation.
I had problem on MAC.
Please ensure you have installed mysql and its running. Because installing only workbench app, will not install mysql service. First install mysql and run the service.
In my case, I tried with brew
brew install mysql // installing mysql
brew services restart mysql // restart service after installing
mysql --version // check version
I was trying to reinstall MySQLServer on my local machine (Win7 32), using Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer.
When wizard configure server, after installation, gives the error "Configuration failed", with details:
mysql-server-5.5-win32:6 - Looking for valid template
mysql-server-5.5-win32:13 - Found valid template.
mysql-server-5.5-win32:20 - Attempting to process template.
mysql-server-5.5-win32:26 - Processed template.
mysql-server-5.5-win32:33 - Attempting to configure service.
mysql-server-5.5-win32:40 - Configured service.
mysql-server-5.5-win32:46 - Attempting to start service.
mysql-server-5.5-win32:100 - Unable to configure service.
mysql-server-5.5-win32:100 - Product configuration controller finished configuration.
Why does it happen?
Can it result from using a wrong "old" password that I put in the installation wizard, to set a new password? If yes - How can I clean up ALL previous settings of MySQL server?
Uninstall MySql and all his components excepted Oracle installer, re launch installer, do normally, when your error comes, finish the procedure of installation.
Next step, in start menu search "services", execute services administration tool, right click on the service "MySql Server XX", select "Connexion" tab and check "system account" on start user, launch the process and it would work.
I was struggling with upper problem over 3 days and I think there is a bug when you want to install this with local connection (not tick TCP connection) via .msi installer. After i selected this the configuration passed properly with no fail configuration. My sollution was to run this with set tick on TCP connection and then in server folder in my.ini file just uncomment line # skip-networking .
Other tips:
Turn off the firewall or add rule for installer to accept public/private net connections.
Under admin privileages use netstat -ab | more command to check ports usage
If u fail with earlier installations run services.msc command find your service (installer set is as defauls something like MySQL56,MySQL56_1 - depending on version) get the name of this service and under admin privileage run cmd and type sc stop "coppiedServiceName" if the service is running and later sc delete "coppiedServiceName"
In some forum says that if might be usefull to turn of windows defender or antivirus too
If you change default installation directory after reinstall check for old install files on C:\Program Files C:\ProgramData and get rid of them
Hope somebody find this usefull.
I had the same issue on Windows XP. The problem was caused by the localization. I had to change the path to the All User's AppData folder using regedit. The original path contained a non ANSI character.
The registry key is this:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders"
The value name is this:"Common AppData"
The original value was: "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Data aplikací"
I changed it to: "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\AppData"
Then the installer succeeded.
NOTE: Uninstall MySQL first, then change the path, then install MySQL again.
