I am having a problem in downgrading the MySQL version in WAMP. Currently I am using 5.6.12 and I need to downgrade it it 5.5. But before I can download the old version. By choosing 'get more...' option and it leads me to the MySQL add-on. But the website looks different. It only shows the WampServer installation. I can't find the MySQL add-ons.
It is now possible to install the multi MySql versions with executables provided by the wamp team.
Here's what you want to do:
First, make sure you have Wampserver 3.0.9 (or newer) installed on your machine.
As of the time I'm writing this, it is not possible to download this version directly from the wampserver official homepage. You have to download and install 3.0.6 from wampserver.com and then update to 3.0.9. You can find the update installer here .
Then you can install Wampserver addons from source forge.
In your case, you just have to pick the version of MySql that you want and to install it.
Finally, restart wamp and then you will be allowed to pick the version of MySql that you want from the wamp option box pinned on the bottom right of your windows task bar.
Hope it helps someone !
Yes, you can do it.
1 - download the version of mysql that you want to install.
2 - Copy / Paste it in your folder C:\wamp\bin\mysql
3 - Close and run Wamp server again
4 - Left click the Wamp icon in your taskbar then Mysql > Version > 'select your version'
Example mysql folder name : "mysql5.6.17"
Note: If you copy the version from an existing server with database on it, the database would be copied as well.
maybe you should ask this in superuser.com, but you may check this one at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wampserver/files/WampServer%202/WampServer%202.2/
I think now they are providing an already-packaged mysql in a single wamp-installer..
So, just try to download the older version..
WampServer version 2.2 has MySQL 5.5.24..
hope this helps..
here is what i did :
(I have wamp 3)
install wamp 2.2 (dont have to remove current version)
go to C:\wamp\bin\mysql
copy sql5.5.24 folder and paste it in C:\wamp64\bin\mysql(wamp 3 folder)
remove wamp 2.2
restart wamp
click on wamp icon in right corner ot taskbar ,select MySQL --> version and there it is
cheers :)

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 already installed the MySQL workbench before.
Now I want to install the MySQL Server to my local, I download the MySQL Installer 8.0.17 msi file in dev.mysql.com .
But open the msi file always show upgrading products , not adding products.
How to adding MySQL Server to Windows 10 instead of upgrade?
You can simply use a virtual machine to install your different MySQL version.
If you don't wish to go with a Virtual machine then you need to install wamp, xampp or winmnp package.
I was facing the same issue. Where you see the upgrade and modify buttons there, on the top corner click on 'Add' button. Then select your products click on arrow and install.
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 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
I have downloaded and stalled the MySQL server 5.5 version via .DMG on my Mac.
But I am confused as to what to do next. I have the preference settings bundle and it says that the MySQL server is running. But do I need to download a client separately? I'm trying to access MySQl in terminal to create an account or login but nothing is working.
You need to use the full path to mysql (/var/lib/mysql), or add the mysql directory to your $PATH var.
If you're trying to install LAMP environment on your mac, try a complete solution, such as MAMP (http://www.mamp.info/en/index.html) or XAMP.
These tools are bundled with phpmyadmin, which makes mysql administration easy
