Yes, TPC/IP is installed. I don't know how to determine the wsock32.dll version, however my file is dated 4/29/99 @12:04pm. I ran Microsoft's latest automatic update utility from their web site and everthing seems to be up to date.

As far as the my.ini goes this is the info contained in the file (yes, it is installed on J:) : [WinMySQLAdmin] Server=J:/mysql/bin/mysqld-nt.exe #User=populus #Password=password

Under the Start Check tab of winmysqladmin the following info is given: There is a my.ini file........yes Verifying the my.ini keys. MySQL server path key.....OK

Any more thoughts??? Thanks in advance.

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.
