Xampp mysql administration page error - mysql

I installed the latest stable xampp package, and received the following error page when I tried to access MySQL administration page.
I haven't been able to find documentation of this particular problem on several guides, and mysql's configuration file, my.cnf does not appear to be in the same place when installed with xampp.

There is another instance of mysql service running.
If you are on windows:
Go to local services: You can run services.msc
Scroll down till you see mysql, right click and click stop on the context menu that appears.
Restart xammp and run phpmyadmin again.

When installing mySQL on windows 10 a pop up with "No Packages Found" error message appears

I was using mySQL workbench for a few days now until today when it wouldn't connect to server. Searching through a quite few answers on google I went ahead with the complete uninstall.
So I deleted it from my "Apps and features" then followed by deleting "mySQL" folder from the below folders:
Program Files
Program Files (x86)
ProgramData
Users
I even cleaned up the Recycling Bin from whatever had sql in the title.
Restarted the laptop.
Then downloaded this version:
mySQL Installer 8.0.23
After I open the file the installation wizard pops up which prompts me to choose one of the Setup types (Developer Default, Server Only, Client Only, Full, Custom).
mySQL Setup type screen
When I click on "Developer Default" and press "Next" button it returns this message
No packages found
When I click on "Custom" setup type then I end up with this pop up window: Select Products which has blank field in "Available Products".
From what I found on the internet there were suggestions of deleting this file C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Installer for Windows\Manifest\Products.xml , but I don't even have a Manifest folder and I don't have file named Products either.. here are all files that come with the mySQL package MySQL Installer for Windows
I also tried unistalling the above version and have installed the older version, but ended up with the same results.. no products found. So I again uninstalled the older version and installed this MySQL Installer 8.0.23 again.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
Thank you,
Olga
I had the exact same issue (version 8.0.23). To get the installer to work, I had to delete the entire folder: 'C:\ProgramData\MySQL'. After I did that, I reran the installer and it worked. Seems like a bug in the installer.

Unable to install XAMPP services

I am currently using XAMMP v3.2.4 and i need to install apache and mysql service.
I was able to install these on pervious tries by running xampp-control.exe using Run as Administrator and then marking the check boxes. But now i am unable to mark those check boxes.
I also tried using command line to run xammp-control.exe but nothing changed.
xampp-control.exe screenshot by running as administrator

Auto start XAMPP version 7.1.4

how can I Automatically start Apache and MySql services without launch XAMPP version 7.1.4?
Auto starting Apache and MySQL as a service is quite easy,just follow the following steps.
1.open XAMPP Gui as an admin.
Search for XAMPP on windows apps search area then right click on XAMPP and open it as an admin
2.To your left hand side of the XAMPP GUI,Enable Apache and MySQL services.
3.Close the Gui
and that is basically it.
So the Next time you want to use Apache and MySQL on switching ON your windows system,the two services will be already running by default.
Enjoy!

MySQL 5.7.16 shows no Product Configuration option during installation on Windows 10

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!

how to open automatically MYSQL on start up of computer? or is there a downloadable software for it?

I'm using xampp to start my mysql server but i want to start it automatically on start up of
my computer. Is there anyway i could make my Xampp (MYSQL) opens automatically on start up?
You should add MySQL as one of your computer's services so it would run automatically on start-up. If you are using Windows OS, then probably, your XAMPP is installed on C:\XAMPP\. Now, go to your XAMPP directory and right click xampp-control.exe run it as administrator and the XAMPP control panel will pop-up. Check the box beside MySQL, that is the box under Service column and is beside the MySQL Module. Mostly, a UAC or user account control will pop-up asking you some stuff, just accept it and install the MySQL service to your PC. If everything is done correctly, your MySQL service should automatically start when your computer boot up.
you need to your xamp application to you startup item of windows/linux check the following link for windows
