hello gleb,

thanks for the suggestion

i could solve the problem in installing mysql on win 2000 the solution is
below for reference


Error: Cannot create Windows service for MySql. Error: 0
This error is encountered when you re-install or upgrade MySQL without first
stopping and removing the existing MySQL service and install MySQL using the
MySQL Configuration Wizard. This happens because when the Configuration
Wizard tries to install the service it finds an existing service with the
same name.

One solution to this problem is to choose a service name other than mysql
when using the configuration wizard. This will allow the new service to be
installed correctly, but leaves the outdated service in place. While this is
harmless it is best to remove old services that are no longer in use.

To permanently remove the old mysql service, execute the following command
as a user with administrative privileges, on the command-line:

C:\>sc delete mysql
[SC] DeleteService SUCCESSregardsprathima rao
