Joe:

Here is what we do ...

- Login as Administrator
- Open DOS Prompt, switch to the drive with MySQL on it, and CD\MYSQL\BIN
- Type MYSQLD-NT --INSTALL
- Type NET START MYSQL

If that doesn't do the trick, your C:\WINNT\MY.INI (or C:\MY.CNF) may not be
correct. Most coomon mistake is to use the wrong slash in basedir or datadir
directories. Use forward slash (/) instead of backslash (\). i.e.:
    basedir=d:/mysql
    datadir=d:/mysql/data

Subject: Starting MySQL with Windows 2000


Can anybody explain how to start MySQL on Windows 2000? I've moved and
renamed the my.ini file to C:\my.cnf - to no avail. I get the following
messages displayed in the "Err File" tab of WinMySQLadmin:

020421  5:22:28  MySql: Got signal 11. Aborting!

020420  8:41:09  MySql: Shutdown Complete

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Joe
