About a month ago, after I changed a startup parameter on mysql administrator, my server got frozen. So I rebooted. Ever since my mysql service wont start on startup or when I try to start it manually. I can only start mysql in console mode (mysqld --console).
I have tried many things but none of them worked:
I have uninstalled and rebooted the server and then installed again;
I have deleted everything in program files folder related to mysql and installed again
I have deleted all the related files in programdata folder
I have treid to use 3307 port instead of 3306 but still not worked
Now when I install mysql again it can never manage to start the service during the setup procccess, so it never manages to end of installation. But I can still start the mysql server on command line with "mysqld --console"
I tried to look into the event lgo , the only error I see is plugin federated is disabled, I looked for solutitions about this error but none worked for me. I believe this might be something abput windows. Any help appreciated.
Uninstall, delete and all the cleanup you did above.
Additionaly manually delete MySQL Windows service.
This can be done by command line using sc stop MySQL then sc delete MySQL.
Before installing, a reboot shouldn't be necessary.
Recreating the Windows service manually, if the installer doesn't do it for you, can be done using "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\mysqld" --install (as the manual says).
If the MySQL installer has installed the service with on demand start-up type, you can edit to start automatically at boot using: sc config MySQL start= auto (the white space after the = sign is intentional and needed). Afterwards you can start the service using sc start MySQL.

Good Morning Stack Exchange!
Trying to get mysql installed on my personal computer and I've run into a few issues.
I can not create a user during install, If I try to add a user during install it fails on the create users step. So I figure I will just add the users after install via sql workbench, which brings me to number 2.
After installing mysql server, attempting to connect to the server with mysql workbench just asks me for the password endlessly until it locks me out. I know the password I'm using is correct because when I modify the mysql server instance via the installer it asks for the current root password, adn the password works there.
After install, if I stop the mysql service from running mysql workbench loads without issue.
Mysql installer can not stop the mysql service, to modify an install I have to manually stop the service.
The common thread to all of these issues is the windows service for mysql.
Troubleshooting steps
verified port 3306 was open in the firewall
disable firewall entirely
Turned off anti-virus
uninstalled anti-virus
Multiple restarts of both the service and computer
Uninstalled all my sql components and reinstalled (multiple times)
changed the root password via command shell (via This MySQL guide for recovering the root password)
Downloaded the installer again in case there was a corruption of my original file.
So I'm pretty stumped, I've been at this for two days and I don't feel any closer to a solution.
Configuration info:
windows 10 (intel core i-5, 16 gigs of ram, 96 gigs of open space on SSD)
MYSql Installer version 8.0.13.0
The first thing I would check is the logs.
However, given the info you provided it sounds like default settings are there but no root#localhost user password or root#127.0.0.1.
Check the my.ini existence for details and logs.
You may have to follow this to create the config file if it doesn’t exist - follow the link below.

I am having this error in log during the installing of MySQL on the application configuration part.
Resolved following these steps:
- Rollback installation until initial page and choose remove mysql server
- Uninstall from add/remove programs mysql community installer
- reboot
- install version mysql-installer-web-community-5.7.22.1 and select update when it asks.
- done
This is a Bug in the Installer of 8.0.11.
There are changes in the lower_case_table_names variable in the new release. See:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/8.0/en/news-8-0-11.html
Nobody can fix this. If you installing the Server the configfile is write before new. Every time. So if you fix this 0.0 to 0 in my.ini the changes will be overwritten.
Somebody have to report a this bug to MySql.
EDIT:
I have report a bug to oracle:
https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=91539
The only way to get rid of this error is by allowing MySQL Installer to update when it prompts to do so at the beginning of the installation. Please note that you will get this error if you didn't allow the installer to update.
Updating lower_case_table_names = 0 in my.ini doesn't fix this because MySql will re-initialize it to 0.0 everytime before running the scripts.
If you didn't allow updates, you will need to uninstall all components of MySql and run the installer again and let it update.
First you have to uninstall mysql:
Step 1. control panel->programs and then uninstall whole mysql.
Step 2. delete folder MySQL from the following path.
C:\Program Files\MySQL
C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL
C:\ProgramData\MySQL (your programdata folder is hidden so you have to unhide from c drive->views->options->view ->show hidden files)
4.C:\Users\hp(your pc name)\AppData\Roaming\MySQL
Step 3. windows+r write regedit.exe enter and follow the path and delete mysql Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\
Step 4. control panel->administrative tool->services then find mysql copy name then open cmd run as administrative write (sc Delete "mysql name that you copied")enter.
Now you can install MySQL
Update the installer for mysql-installer-web-community-5.7.22.1 file during the installation from the web . I encountered the same problem, after updating the installer it works correctly.
When I downgrade MySQL from 8.0.11 to 5.7.22, I encountered this error. Spend a lot of time to fix the bug. Finally, I fix this problem by the following steps:
uninstall all the related features with MySql( use Control Panel > Programs and Features)
go to C: drive, make all hidden files visible(view > hidden items), find ProgramData file
delete the MySql file inside hidden ProgramData file manually.
Make sure all the MySQL files are deleted, reinstall MySQL. It works for me. I successfully installed MySQL 5.7.22 without any problem.
My Guess: This error probably will happen if you are second or third time to install MySql server. It seems like the error happens because the old MySql files are not deleted completely. Usually, we all think that after we uninstall the application, the files are deleted from program files, it is clean, everything was done. However, there still some files hidden from us. We have to delete them by ourselves.
On bug page, last comment states that the latest installer solves this problem.
For me not. The following steps made me a clean install (after get the latest installer):
When it fails on database initialization step just cancel it back to the installer's main page where you can see installed MySQL server with a reconfigure option.
Now edit the my.ini and set the
"lower_case_table_names=0.0"
to
"lower_case_table_names=0"
Click on reconfigure and now it goes over on this problem.
Hope it helps.
I faced the same problem with 1.4.25 installer and resolved that by doing the following steps [without updating the installer]
There is a folder MySQL Installer for Windows\Manifest\Templates
In Templates folder there are few text files which are there to be used as a template during my.ini generation. I have commented out the line lower_case_table_names=
Now I execute the configuration process using installer and it executes without any error.Also I add the variable later and restart the server.
As the bug reported in https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=91476, upgrade MySQL installer to 1.4.26.0 and reinstall MySQL server would resolve the issue.
When I installed mysql server, wizard of installation was stooped at the point initializing database (if necessary) for that I did.
remove mysql folder from 'C:\ProgramData' folder. Note: ProgramData is hidden. You need to make it visible.
Uninstall mysql server if it was in the list of installed programs in control panel.
Download mysql-installer-web-community-8.0.13.0 and install it again.
I had the same problem, tried to change my.ini did't work, so I uninstalled the SQL server, then I google my operating system + Install MySQL videos (In my case "Install MySQL on Windows 8"), then I installed MySQL 5.6.26 then worked.
I think the newer MySQL doesn't support certain old operating system.
Please don't post this question as duplicate. I am trying to configure mysql for about 3 weeks now. Someone should really help me.
I recently installed MySQL 5.1 in a Lenovo laptop to do my project. The laptop is running on Windows 8.
The installation was fine but when I tried to configure MySQL it worked till the last page.
There am getting Error Nr 2003.
I tried it through the command prompt, through services in the control panel. But the problem is that the mysql service is not starting at all. Why it is not starting ? What will be blocking it from starting ?
First you need to start mysql service it is the problem for this above
error.
In case you cant start mysql service means you need to install mysql service.
Steps for install mysql service
Step 1: open command prompt and go to the mysql installed location (for example c:\Program Fiels\MYSQL\Mysql Server5.0\bin\)
Step 2: mysql --install
Step 3: start mysql service using the command NET START MYSQL command
then connect mysql using username and password.
Assuming the service is already running and you still get this error connecting to the localhost using the mysql client, then make sure you have an entry for "localhost" in your hosts file. This was the case I experienced.
I resolved this situation following the following process. After adding the MySQL path to the environment, I kept invoking the program and then checking Event Viewer in the Application Log for MySQL errors that referenced old commands in the ini file. After removing them, what was hanging me up was that the installer was looking for errmsg.sys in a folder that didn't exist, \bin\share. Those folders DO exist, but on the same level, not nested. So I added the folder share to bin and copied errmsg.sys from share to the new nested share, and it worked.
Now that its running, I intend to redo a proper configuration using the workbench, just to gets my ducks in a row.
hth
Go to Run type services.msc. Check whether MySQL services is running or not. If not, start it manually. Once it started, type mysqlshow to test the service.
I have read all the posts about this none fix it? please help ive even tryed re-installing my computer and reinstalling xampp

Then i get a user account control to allow changes when i try to start mysql? something to do with net.exe? in C:\Windows, im not sure of the rest of the directory
If i say no to the user account cocntrol then it says this
00:33:49 [mysql] There may be an error, return code: 1223 - The operation was cancelled by the user.
If i say yes nothing happens? Apparently its windows 5.1 erroring? but the directory doesnt even exist? i deleted it all from Program Files and Program Files (x86), Also uninstalled all mysql components? Any thoughts
I had the same problem. I was using standalone MySQl for Java, and then I install XAMPP even after uninstalling stand-alone MySQL, XAMPP MySQL wouldn't start.
The problem is even after uninstalling MySQL MySQL service is normally still in the registry. The solution is to remove MySQL service from registry. The easiest way to do this, run XAMP-control in Administrator mode, and remove MySQL from service list and start MySQL again. That's it
Here is the way to know the program, use netstat -ao
You have the port and the associated pid.
Get the pid for 3306.
Then launch taskmgr
Show column pid (Menu > Select > Column selection > check PID)
You know the program which uses this 3306 port.
Kill it
Restart your XAMP
Then for not starting this "3306 port" program, launch services.msc.
It is certainly a MySQL, search for it and desactivate it at startup.
close Xampp server
go to C:\xampp\mysql\data
delete the ibdata1 file
restart xampp server
yes i already get this, the problem is that you already install MySQL as standalone version OR with VM i guess , and then you install xampp, the solution for that, is open process monitor, and close MySQL, MySQL Server 5.1 then you can start xampp and will work fine ^^
I just uninstall the register service using
sc delete MySQL
and restart my xmapp service; then it works OK.
I have installed Mysql server locally and everything was working Ok but today when I tried to get a connection to the local db, I got an error. After checking services showed that the MySql service is missing.
What is the problem?
I have done it by the following way
Start cmd
Go to the "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin"
type mysqld --install
Like the following image. See for more information.
Go to your mysql bin directory and install mysql service again:
c:
cd \mysql\bin
mysqld-nt.exe --install
or if mysqld-nt.exe is missing (depending on version):
mysqld.exe --install
Then go to services, start the service and set it to automatic start.
I also face the same problem. do the simple steps
Go to bin directory copy the path and set it as a environment variable.
Run the command prompt as admin and cd to bin directory:
Run command : mysqld –install
Now the services are successfully installed
Start the service in service windows of os
Type mysql and go
I came across the same problem. I properly installed the MYSQL Workbench 6.x, but faced the connection as below:
I did a bit R&D on this and found that MySQL service in service.msc is not present. To achieve this I created a new connection in MySQL Workbench then manually configured the MySQL Database Server in "System Profile" (see the below picture).
You also need to install MySQL Database Server and set a configuration file path for my.ini. Now at last test the connection (make sure MySQL service is running in services.msc).
If you wish to have your config file on a different path you have to give your service a name:
mysqld --install NAME --defaults-file=C:\my-opts2.cnf
You can also use the name to install multiple mysql services listening on different sockets if you need that for some reason.
You can see why it's failing by copying the execution path and adding --console to the end in the terminal.
Finally, you can modify the starting path of a service by regediting:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\NAME
That works well but it isn't as useful because the windows service mechanism provides little logging capabilities.
Go to
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.2\bin
then Open MySQLInstanceConfig file
then complete the wizard.
Click finish
Solve the problem
I think this is the best way to change the port number also.
It works for me
