Hello,
I am trying to install mysql on my Windows 98 box as a standalone. I would like to
work on my computer only, testing, etc before sending stuff to my server; therefore I
would like to have a version of mysql that runs independently on my win98 box,
probably along with Apache once I get the mysql daemon to run.
Here's what happened:
I installed mysql, then went to the command line....
>From C:\mysql\bin\>
I entered
mysqld
I got this error:
010521 error Warning: listen( ) on TCP/IP failed with error 0
can't initialize Innodb as 'Innodb_datafile_path' is not set'
I also tried "mysqld --standalone" from the same prompt and got the same error.
I got the same version to run on my WINME laptop no problem, but not on my win98 box.
Any ideas? Your help would be much appreciated.
thanks in advance,
jason
