Please follow the steps below:
- The instructions below assume that you have opened a prompt
screen at c:\mysql\bin directory.
- After a boot, open the Task Manager (ALT+CTRL+DEL) and verify
if exists a process for an MySQL server (mysqld.exe, mysqld-max.exe,
mysqld-nt.exe, mysqld-max-nt.exe, mysqld-opt.exe).
If yes, stop it with the following command at the prompt:
net stop mysql (if the server was started as service)
or
mysqladmin shutdown (if the server was started as
standalone mode).
For NT server is necessary to make twice this command due a bug
which should be fixed in the next release.
- If you had installed the service before, type the command:
mysqld-max-nt --remove
- Type: mysqld-max-nt --install
- Go to c:\winnt directory and create a file named my.ini.
Edit the lines below:
[mysqld]
basedir=c:\mysql
datadir=c:\mysql\data
skip-innodb
Save the file and close it.
- Start the server:
net start mysql
NOTE
If you want the support of InnoDB tables (I recommend to test), you
should need to read the Manual and remove the line skip-innodb from
the my.ini file.
Regards,
Miguel
