Problem with MySQL server configuration

[zimonken]

When I try to configurate a MySQL server and press execute in the end I get this "The service could not be started" when it comes to "Restart service".
I need help because I want to try out Pryds 3.0.9 Mangos server.

Most likely means you already have an active MySQL server running, Try ALT Ctrl Delete, go to processes and look for Mysql.exe and end that process. Then try rerunning the configuration. Also make sure your using a different name for the application if your trying to run two.



Edit: If your running two MySQL servers, make sure there both not port 3306!

[zimonken]

oh but what other port can I use? whatever I want, 3307?

[zimonken]

I tried with both port 3307 and 3308 but it didn't work. And I haven't any other active MySQL server running...
What did you mean with "Also make sure your using a different name for the application if your trying to run two"?

Make sure no security programs are blocking port 3306, 3307, 3308 and any other port and also change your Service name to MySQLNT or something in the MySQLConfig thing.

[zimonken]

hmm look I can't change it: :/

Make sure you download the full version of MySQL 5.1 and run it as an Administrator.

If your configuration is out of range the server wont start

try starting with default settings
