I downloaded mySQl zip file from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ . I downloaded the 216 MB file given in the bottom of the page. I extracted the zip file. But I cannot figure out how to install mySQL for windows. There is no setup.exe file or an MSI installer. This is what I got after extracting the zip file :- http://i.stack.imgur.com/fBA2W.png
Please tell me how to continue. P.S. that I have tagged java because I have to use mySQL for java. :P
You can download the installer file from here: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/5.6.html
Here is the the MySQL documentation for Installing MySQL on Microsoft Windows Using a noinstall Zip Archive: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/windows-install-archive.html
If you're looking for an installer, why not download the installer package?

I have downloaded the JDBC driver for MySQL "mysql-connector-java-gpl-5.1.26.msi" from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/. But i can't figure out how to use it. The documentation at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/connector-j-binary-installation.html says it is a zip file which has the required jar file. But what i got is a .msi file. When i execute the msi file it just starts installing and disappears. Any ideas how i can get the jar file from the msi?
The msi installation places the file at C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Connector J\mysql-connector-java-5.1.26-bin.jar.
You can also download the platform independent zip file and extract the jar file whereever you want.
I had the same issue with the installer. use the drop down menu under Select Platform:, and select Platform Independent. If you don't know how to use a TAR archive, download the zip file, unzip and there is the .bin file. For eclipse, drop this into the project directory, find the file, right click, and build path. This method may cause issues if you download a java update.
You can directly used it from C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Connector J\mysql-connector-java-5.1.26-bin.jar after installing the msi. If you are using IDE like Netbeans and Eclipse just go to your project then right click the Libraries folder then click add jar option then go the mysql connector directory and then select the mysql connector jar file.
I install the RailsInstaller downloading from this site http://railsinstaller.org/ and also install the mysqlInstaller downloading from this site http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/. Both I have installed in c:\ drive. I have also installed mysql driver from ruby command gem install mysql. Now I haven't Idea how to configure mysql in Ruby on Rails.
I have seen this answer MySQL driver for Rails in Windows 7 x64 they tell to replace libmySQL.dll but where to replace I didn't find such file.
Does anyone have any Idea or solution about my problem?
I had same problem. following solution worked for me
Solution:
the libmysql.dll file is located in the bin directory of your mysql installation.
This file needs to be a copy of it in the Ruby\bin directory.
I downloaded the zip file for Mysql 5.0.29, but there is no .exe file in the folder. No idea how to install it in Windows.
All the instructions online are saying to click a .exe file to start installation.
Can anyone help me a bit? Many thanks!

Here are instructions to install MySQL on windows, alternatively you can download MSI Installer and install on Windows.
You could get it done easily by a bit googling, just download the .msi file which you want from mysql site
Follow these simple steps and get it done
Hope this helps.
I just downloaded zipped-up version of mysql 5.5.9 (mysql-5.5.9.zip, which I put in c:\progream files), unzipped it, and got this dir (screenshot):

I hadn't installed mysql server on windows in a few years.. I remember that years ago you used to get an installer called setup.exe, when you ran that it ran instal/config wizard, that would walk you thru installation and setup.. so how do I run that wizard now???
no file with ext .exe inside this dir (no file with ext .msi either) no serious instructions here
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/windows-installation-layout.html
would appreciate some help.. thank you very much...
There is a package available with a MSI installer.
Just follow the instructions on http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
You should use msi installer. It's on download page first or second option.
After installing from the RPM and then trying the Binary versions of APE (AJAX Push Engine) I am getting this error (on both versions) when I try to run the APE server:
[Module] Failed to load ../modules/libmod_spidermonkey.so [Invalid library] (libmysqlclient_r.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
I am using Fedora Linux, with MySql and apache installed. How can I get this libmysqlclient file? I have found this RPM: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/12471829/dir/fedora_4/com/mysqlclient15-5.0.67-1.fc4.remi.i386.rpm.html
And it says it includes this file, so I downloaded it to the box, attempted to install and tells me that it's already installed.
Any advice would help thanks!
Inside the ape.conf there's a module working directory which must be altered.
