Viraj!
The problem is not the public key But getting the corresponding Key to the
downloaded package as mentioned in the below extract from the MySQL 5.1
Manual http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/checking-gpg-signature.html

After you have downloaded and imported the public build key, download your
 desired MySQL package and the corresponding signature, which also is 
 *available
 from the download page*. The signature file has the same name as the
 distribution file with an .asc extension, as shown by the examples in the
 following table.


*The Signature file corresponding to  the downloaded MySQL package is not to
be found on the download page*

On 2 December 2010 23:23, viraj kali...@gmail.com wrote:

 sorry for not reading it correctly..

 yep.. seems like a good catch. .asc is not linked or available in
 keyserver for bu...@mysql.com.

 cut and paste the provided build key in the manual and gpg --import
 could be a solution

Changing the location of my.ini and the order option files are read

   I did what you said, now I understand what you say that there is no
sence in what I wanted to do.But I gave these commands as follows But it did
not work.What I want is to specify a configuration file which is placed in
the WINDOWS directory.The commands I ran
C:\NET STOP MySQL
C:\mysqld-nt --remove
C:\mysqld-nt --install MYSQL --defaults-file=\c:\WINDOWS\my.ini\
Service successfully installed.

C:\net start mysql
System error 2 has occurred.

The system cannot find the file specified.

Why is the file not able to be found, I have taken my.ini out of the MySQL
installation directory and placed it in the WINDOWS directory.

Are there other commands to start a service apart from NET commands,like
using mysqladmin?

 Varuna,
 obviously it doesn't make much sense, to specify the my.ini location
 in my.ini itself.
 The --defaults-file option is used as a direct start-up parameter
 for mysql-server both, run as service or console-process.
 It simply tells the server-process where to look for the oneandonly my.ini.
 Any fullpath given here, overrides the default search-path during
 server-startup.
 I assume your server-process has been already started with a
 --defaults-file -option pointing to a my.ini in the
 mysql-application-directory, therefor it failed after deleting the
 file at this location.
 You may change the direct service-startup options by invoking
 mysqld-nt with options --remove and --install:
 With the install option you can specify the complete command-line
 including additional options which will be used when the server starts
 as a service.

 e.g.

 net stop mysql

 mysqld-nt --remove
 mysqld-nt --install MYSQL --defaults-file=\c:\program
 files(x86)\mysql\my.ini\

 net start mysql

Hello Steven

I have installed it as an service, I first stopped the service form the
Service Control Manager and I went to the directory C:\Program

 and  out put was

  Good Morning Steven

 Hello Varuna!

 Well to start mysqld the reference
  manual instructs to give the command [C:\ C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL

  The out put is as below
 
  'C:\' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
  operable program or batch file.under the heading Starting the server for
  the first time

 It's not practical to install MySQL in the directory Program Files,
 because the folder name for cmd is too long and it's a little bit
 tricky. Better structure is the following:

 C:\MySQL\

 So the service to start - Command Prompt (cmd)

  C:
  cd /MySQL/
  mysqld-- console

 It is important to the folder where MySQL is. Otherwise it is not my
 opinion.

 Please also remember to copy the list back in to your response so others
 can follow your steps if they're having trouble.

 As I said in my e-mail, I would recommend installing as a Windows service
 (you said in your e-mail that Install as a Windows service was unchecked.)
  I don't use MySQL on Windows so I cannot be 100% confident, but this might
 be the reason why the mysqld binary is not installed.  You could also try
 installing the server as a Server Machine, not a Developer Machine.

 Try these and see if you get any further.

Varuna,

A polite note - if you post the same question 6 times (especially
in the space of 24 hours) people are going to be more unlikely to
help you.  Post the question once, and read people's responses.

Now onto your issues...

When you run mysqld-nt you were starting a standalone version of
MySQL with named pipes support.  Once this was running in one
command window, you would need another command window with a
client connecting to that server.

The message you are getting back from Windows is that mysqld
doesn't exist in C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin.
 My first step would be to do a search for this binary (Start 
Search  Files or Folders etc.)

Secondly there are a number of ways in which MySQL can be
installed on a Windows system - how did you do it?  Which package
did you download?  Have you run the configuration wizard?  (I
don't use MySQL

I am using WinXP.I am wanted to shutdown MySQL service from the command line

below displayed error was the result

mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed

How can I correct this?
Is this because of a firewall preventing access to port 3306?If a firewall
is preventing access how was it able to ask for the password?

I have Nortan Internet Security trial version running and the windows
firewall is disabled.If this is caused by a firewall barrier please tell me

 Hi Varuna,

 The problem looks like it is with the command you issued. The correct
 syntax is:

 mysqladmin -uroot -p shutdown

 then supply root password.

 Without giving the -uroot argument, it doesn't know that you are trying
 to log in as the root user, which is why it is telling you that access
 is denied for [EMAIL PROTECTED], rather than [EMAIL PROTECTED]
