I'm sorry, I'm very new at this. I only downloaded the live version last week. Where do I find the setting you are referring to? By attempt to run the servers, perhaps this is a correct answer to your question: I am only using this for learning purposes. I am hoping to attain new skills and thought that SQL was a good place to start (since I believe it to be the base for many database languages (DBIV (or whatever version they're up to today, Oracle, Sybase, Peoplesoft, etc.) and perhaps if I lose my job this will broaden my choices in looking for a new position/career. If this is not a correct answer to your question, please clarify.
It's not. I'll attempt to rephrase my questions. However, I will also suggest that if, as you say, you're very new at this, attempting to run multiple servers before you are comfortable with running a single server is not likely to be very easy.
re: your setup: What version of Windows do you have?
re: your settings: What options are you using to start the servers? (for example, are you passing options on the command line or storing them in an option file? If an option file, which one and what do its contents look like?)
re: how you're running the servers: What command do you use to invoke the servers? Are you starting them from the command line, or installing them as services and running them that way?
It is a good idea to explain exactly what you're doing, and to provide any relevant error messages that occur. (By that I mean the text of the error messages themselves -- not just a general description of the failure.)
Thanks.
Finally, thank you, I will change the name of the folder as you suggest.
George

My databases still seem to be there but I can't point to them either in mysql or in mysqlcc/DBManager. I guess I have moved port 3306 to the 4.1.0 database. How do I name,3307 as the 4.0.13 database?
First, you're better off not installing 4.1 (or any version) in a directory with a pathname that contains spaces. I suggest renaminng c:\4.1 Alpha to c:\4.1-Alpha.
Second, tell us more about your setup. You're asking us to diagnose the problem with little more information than "it doesn't work". What are your settings? How are you attempting to run the servers? Thanks.
