Hi. I am running Windows 98 and have installed MySQL 3.23.47 under D:\Program Files\MySQL\. I created C:\my.cnf and it contains the following:
[mysqld] skip-innodb basedir=D:/Program Files/MySQL/ datadir=E:/mysql/ When I start mysqld, I get the following in the error file: D:\Program Files\MySQL\bin\mysqld.exe: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist I found no information on mysql.host in the manual, don't know what it's for, where it's supposed to go or what's supposed to go in it. My friend installed the same version of MySQL under Win95 on the C: drive and only put skip-innodb in C:\my.cnf and mysqld worked for him without him ever having to create a mysql.hosts file. I also got the same error even if I add the following to my C:\my.cnf file: port=3306 skip-networking skip-name-resolve Any ideas? Thanks.
