Following up on this topic also..does MySQL have the ability to be installed on a Win98 evnivronment using MS Personal Web Server?

I appreciate any feedback regarding this. I am hoping that it is possible so I can start learning to use MySQL for database programing using PHP.

Thank you in advance for any imput and ideas.

Hi The first question is do you have TCP/IP installed on your machine? Second question is your version of WSock32.dll >= 1.1, if not download V2.x from the MS download site. I am running MySQL as a service on my W2K machine and I do not have connection problems. So I believe the problem is with your setup. Have you edited my.cnf/my.ini to point to path where MySQL is installed? Is my.cnf/my.ini in the correct drive/directory and is that drive/directory on your path?

I would love to get this up and working since I've only heard good things about this program. However I've had difficulty getting connecting to the localhost. I have tried these 2 installation versions with the same results:

mysql-3.23.26-beta-win.zip mysql-3.23.28-gamma-win.zip

I believe the trouble is that I can't get the executable or service running- I think. I've tried starting the program by:

1) Running winmysqladmin.exe (which show a green light) and then I try verify this is running by entering at the command prompt

"mysqlshow.exe"

and

I get this error message: "Can't connect to MySQL Server on 'localhost' (10061)".

2) Running mysqlmanager.exe and querying the default mysql database and I get this error message: "Can't connect to MySQL Server on 'localhost' (10061)".

3) At the command prompt entering: "mysqld-nt --install" from which I get the same error message "Can't connect to MySQL Server on 'localhost' (10061)".

Did you check with the task manager to see if mysqld is in fact installed as a service

4) At the command prompt entering: "NET START mysql" from which I get this error message: The MySql service is starting. The MySql service could not be started. A system error has occurred. System error 1067 has occurred. The process terminated unexpectedly.

5) Tried connecting thru a php script from which I get "Can't connect to MySQL Server on 'localhost' (10061)".

Any thoughts? Thanks much.
