I am trying to run MySql 5.1 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I have downloaded the MSI installer from the MYSql website and installed it. The installation is successful, but the service does not start.
If I try to run MySql manually using the mysqld executable, it crashes immediately on running (error: mysqld.exe has stopped working).
Earlier mysql was running on the machine, but I had some problem with it (wasn't executing big queries) and installed it again which somehow broke the program. I had installed it to work as a service which started giving me this isse, and now it won't work even if I don't install it as a service.
I have tried removing the mysql folder and re-installing. Is there somewhere else where Mysql saves configuration info or other data?
Has anyone else found this problem and solved it?
How can I find out why the process is failing to run?
Or you can try and run the mysqld.exe as administrator.
See the Debugging a MySQL Server in your MySQL reference manual.
download the noinstall (zip archive) version of MySQL corresponding exactly to the version that is already installed on your system
extract the .pdb symbols files to your existing MySQL installation's bin directory
start Dr. Watson
start mysqld-debug in standalone mode
capture the list of all moduled (i.e. loaded DLLs) with their full path from DrWatson
capture the stack trace from DrWatson
examine the MySQL log files (including mysqld.trace) to see what went on immediately prior to the crash

I just installed Laragon but when it wants to start its services, it "freezes" when mySQL have to be launched, then shows me that message :
mysqld.exe - Application Error
This application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.
After that, Laragon's window writes "initialize data..." then does not change until I stop all services.
I wanted to check the log files but... zero log. So impossible to have some details...
I've tried to uninstall and reinstall.
I've tried another version of mySQL.
None of them works. WAMP is also installed on my computer, but I don't really want to uninstall it (and I don't think that's problem since I have both at work).
I think MySQL 5.7 is not compatible with your OS.
You can try two options:
Copy your MySQL in WAMP to laragon\bin\mysql\
Use MariaDB
I am a SQL Server guy and have only recently decided to venture into the world of MySQL and have run into an issue that is preventing me from progressing :(
I have installed MariaDB and started testing the installation by running
mysqld.exe --console
and received the following error
[ERROR] InnoDB: .\ibdata1 can't be opened in read-write mode
I have done quite a bit of research on this and have not found a solution that works.
I have tried the following:
Checked the user permissions for the containing folder of ibdata1 which is located at C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.1\data and everything looks correct.
I have tried deleting the ibdata1 and log files from the above location, stopping mysql and restarting.
I have tried repairing the application.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.
None of these have worked.
Please let me know if you have any information that might help me.
This is on Windows 8, MariaDB version 10.1.13.
Thanks!
You're running MariaDB from the console interactively, which means you're running it under your local user account security context. I'm guessing the command-prompt window was not elevated first, so your security level will not grant you access to write to anything under %programfiles%.
There are two options:
Change your MariaDB configuration to store the file under %ALLUSERSPROFILE% (which is C:\ProgramData on Windows 8) or your local user account.
Run MariaDB as a background service with its own user-account (a service-identity, perhaps, if you're comfortable with that, otherwise a normal user account) with appropriate permissions.
Out of curiosity, why are you running Windows 8 instead of Windows 8.1?
MariaDB MSI installs datadirectory under C:\Program Files\MariaDB ...\data (not that different from SQLServer , where data directory is also under the installation root). During the installation you were asked if you want to install as service. Say "yes" to this, and then you won't need to start mysqld on the console window, it is already there, running as service.
Perhaps this service is already running , and thus second attempt to open the files (when you run mysqld --console) does not succeed.
My problem is that windows services don't have MySQL Server. How to run it?
I need to run MySQL Server on a new for me laptop. There's Windows 7. And MySQL have been installed on it. In order to verify this, I opened the Programs and Features window and saw it there:
But when I go to the Services to run it, I don't find it. It's absent there:
It's very strange for me. Why MySQL is not among the services? How can I run it? It's installed on this station.
Try performing the following steps and then check again.
Start Command Prompt (cmd)
Go to the "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin"
type mysqld --install
In my case I installed it through XAMPP so I do not have it among windows services (it has it´s own control panel), but I found this document that may help you solve this problem:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/windows-start-service.html
Also check the error log file which shows specific information about the start and stop of the service. In my case is called mysql_error.log and it is located under the '...mysql\data\' folder. Another document talking about that:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/error-log.html
I'm trying to install MySQL Server 5.7.7 on Windows Server 2008 machine. It has failed several times and I tried uninstalling the whole thing and try the installation again. I tried installing one component at a time and it worked for all the components (Workbench, connectors,..etc.) except for the MySQL Server itself.
I'm receiving error at the step "Writing configuration file", the log shows the error details below:
Beginning configuration step: Writing configuration file
Could not find a part of the path 'C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\my.ini'.
Ended configuration step: Writing configuration file
i had the same problem. to solve it, i simply created the "MySQL Server 5.7" folder in "C:\ProgramData\MySQL" then clicked Retry in the installer
i've had bad experiences with MySQL installers in the past. really surprised it's not smart enough (or too lazy?) to create the sub folders before trying to write the ini file.
hope that helps!
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.

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.
