Hello I want to distribute my java database application together with mysql, and I want to make it as easy as possible.
Right now a new user has to: - download and install mysql - run the mysql server with mysqld --standalone or a similar command - download my program and run it. To make this easier for the user, I tried to zip mysql together with my program (the whole c:\mysql directory except the data directory), and to issue the mysqld --standalone command each time the user starts my program, but it doesn't work (it would be too easy, wouldn't it?). When I try that, see below for the errors that appear in mysql.err: I want my program in a single zip file, and that you only have to unzip it, type "setup" and then "run" to make it work. Is there a better way to achieve this? It only has to work under Windows (I am assuming here that linux users are smart enough to set up mysql by themselves) thanks in advance Martijn van Iersel Here are the errors I get: Cannot initialize InnoDB as 'innodb_data_file_path' is not set. If you do not want to use transactional InnoDB tables, add a line skip-innodb to the [mysqld] section of init parameters in your my.cnf or my.ini. If you want to use InnoDB tables, add for example, innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:30M But to get good performance you should adjust for your hardware the InnoDB startup options listed in section 2 at http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html 020925 10:19:34 bin\mysqld: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist Cannot initialize InnoDB as 'innodb_data_file_path' is not set.
