Dear all,
I found the solution:
1.
If you want to use the shared memory protocol
locally on windows
a.
Stop the TCP/IP protocol by adding –skip-networking
in my.ini file.
b.
Add the shared memory protocol by adding –shared-memory
in my.ini file.
c.
Both should be added under [mysqld] option.
[mysqld]
# The TCP/IP Port the MySQL Server will listen on
port=3306
skip-networking
shared-memory
2.
Save the my.ini file.
3.
Stop the mysql service, by services.msc console.
4.
Start the mysql service.
5.
Connect to the server by typing:
Mysql -h localhost -u root
--protocol =memory -p
Enter password : *****
6.
mysql> status;
--------------
