John,

I downloaded mysql-shareware-3_22_30-win.zip There is no "mysqld-nt -- install" or anything like that, there's only setup.exe. When I attempt to start it as a service I get an error saying it's an invalid service name.

Can you point me to where in the manual I might look to help me get going with this? Or any other suggestions would also be great.

Is there a different download I need? I'm just wanting to eval MySQL for a project that's starting up, which will be deployed on Unix -- but developed in NT.

Thanks for you help on this. Kim :-)

OK -- I did that -- now, does it start when I start my server (as a service), or do i need to start it, and if so, how do I do that?

If you ran "mysqld-nt --install" (or something like that) as specified in the install guide, then mysql is installed as a service, and *I think* it will by default start with windows automaticlaly. You can get to it through your "services" dialog in "Control Panel". You can set it to start with windows by default, etc..

If you successfully installed it as a services, You can start and stop it at will in one of three ways: 1. From command prompt: "NET START mysql" or "NET STOP mysql"

2. From Services dialog. (click start or stop, of course).

3. Through mysqladmin: mysqladmin --user=you -p shutdown (or refresh, reload etc.)
