RE: New MySQL install Help Please

Surely you jest.

Start it (MySQL) from DOS?

Which file name do I type into the DOS box command line to start it.

I have not yet installed any of the GUI's I heard about because until I
overcame the MyODBC problem I wasn't sure I would get it installed.

Can I assume one of the GUI's will start it from inside windows?

Please include the original message so that others may know what the
original problem was.

No, I'm not.  Please read the fine manual.

There is still a lot of decent DOS software still floating about and some
are faster than their Windoze counter parts.  You could say MySQL is such an
example if you're using a GUI tool.

Please RTFM.

It should but I've never tried.

Cheers

Rolf,

Your mouse has moved.

Windows must be restarted for the change to take effect.

Reboot now?  [OK]

 New MySQL install Help Please

 Is there a MySQL UseNet news group or User to User Forum anywhere?

This mailing list is it.


 Just installed latest MySQL and tried to then install the latest MySQL
ODBC

 Following the main install I was surprised I didn't find any icons on my
 desktop or in my Windows Start Programs listing, but I will worry about
that
 tomorrow.

I'm not.  Not everything is windoze based.  You need to start it from DOS.

 I'm running Windows 98 SE

 Multiple times I tried to install the ODBC by running setup.exe from the
 download.

 I even redownloaded the ODBC from MySQL Site.

 I get the error message

 An error occurred when copying C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MFC30.DLL


I had no problems installing it.  Try shutting down as many applications as
you can, including the mysql server then try reinstalling.

 I thought maybe the system was preventing the install from installing a
 version older than what I have on my machine, but I checked, and they are
 the same version.

 The file is not write protected.

 I tried rebooting and it did no good.

 I'm assuming I should not ignore the error message and that other files
 either failed to copy, or were not even given a chance.

 Appreciate any help you can give.
