In your service manager (in the control panel), is the service listed there, and is it started? I personally, don't use the GUI mysqladmin utility. mysql-nt --install installs the service, then I use service manager just like I would for any other service (like IIS) on NT to be started. When you're as a default non admin user account, did you ever try mysql to connect to the server, or even better, telnet to port 3306 ? If so, what errors did you receive back from mysql or the telnet? If you didn't maybe it's time that you do. I doubt this is a service related problem, but I may be wrong... Using the right usernames / passwords / host addresses will also help your cause when you have trouble connecting to the mysql server. > -----Original Message----- > From: Charles Quesenberry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2002 11:25 AM > To: Kirk Brannan Babb > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Problems starting MySQL as a Service for all users > > > Kirk, > > > I am somewhat confused by your question. > > I must misunderstand what it is that you are trying to ask, because what > it > appears that you are asking makes no sense.
