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. Once MySQL was installed as a service, why does it matter which account starts it? Are you not the admin on the box? Are you trying to start multiple instances of the MySQL service? Logging off of the admin account will not stop a service on a Windows 2000 box. Even though you log off the admin account, MySQL should still be running. Or, when you say started do you mean connect to the running server? What is the output of the following command on the server running MySQL? netstat -a -p tcp Respectfully, Charles Q. At 08:23 PM 6/5/2002 -0500, you wrote: I've installed MySQL as a service using mysqld-nt --install on W2K. No problem there, says service successfully installed. BUT, when I try to log off the admin account and on to the regular power user account MySQL will not start automagically and cannot be started manually. Pop back over to the admin account and MySQL acts like nothing was ever wrong. Is this an issue that can be overcome by manually installing MySQL as a service instead of using the above? And how do you accomplish that? If you know or have heard of this before please help me out; I'd really like to have MySQL running for all users (that would enable the Apache-based site I'm running on the same box to access the database at all times).

RE: Problems starting MySQL as a Service for all users
I don't think this makes sense either, but you will see what I mean: FOR MY ADMIN ACCOUNT C:\netstat -a -p tcp Active Connections Proto Local Address Foreign AddressState TCPdynamic:http dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:epmap dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:microsoft-ds dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:1025 dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:1027 dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:1031 dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:3306 dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:1031 dynamic:3306 ESTABLISHED TCPdynamic:3306 dynamic:1031 ESTABLISHED TCPdynamic:netbios-ssndynamic:0 LISTENING FOR THE REGULAR USER ACCOUNT C:\netstat -a -p tcp Active Connections Proto Local Address Foreign AddressState TCPdynamic:http dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:epmap dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:microsoft-ds dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:1025 dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:1027 dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:3306 dynamic:0 LISTENING TCPdynamic:netbios-ssndynamic:0 LISTENING I was under the impression that once something is installed as a service, it is available to the system for all users. This is not the case here. In fact, once I log off admin and onto the other accounts the winmysqladmin manager (which I put in startup for all users) asks if I want to install the service!!! When I click OK it says install failed and I actually have to shut down the tool in order to log off (or else the system hangs). My web site can connect to the server using PHP scripts to grab data with no problems when the admin account is running, but as soon as I log off and on to another account the dynamic part of the site dies. Again, when I was on my admin account I installed the MySQL service from the command prompt using: mysqld-nt --install and the result was service has been installed (paraphrasing). I have uninstalled MySQL completely and reinstalled only to run into the same problem. I'm using the 3.23.49 binary package. -Kirk -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.

Re: Problems starting MySQL as a Service for all users
FOR MY ADMIN ACCOUNT C:\netstat -a -p tcp TCPdynamic:3306 dynamic:0 LISTENING FOR THE REGULAR USER ACCOUNT C:\netstat -a -p tcp TCPdynamic:3306 dynamic:0 LISTENING ^ The port is available under both accounts - the server is running. I was under the impression that once something is installed as a service, it is available to the system for all users. This is not the case here. In fact, once I log off admin and onto the other accounts I just proove you wrong... Again, when I was on my admin account I installed the MySQL service from the command prompt using: mysqld-nt --install and the result was service has been installed (paraphrasing). I have uninstalled MySQL completely and reinstalled only to run into the same problem. I'm using the 3.23.49 binary package. 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.

Problems starting MySQL as a Service for all users
I've installed MySQL as a service using mysqld-nt --install on W2K. No problem there, says service successfully installed.
