Hi The ">" that you see in the command prompt is only for decoration you can easy change the look on you command prompt to show you something else. The proper way to start your program is: c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-max --standalone not the otherway.
Regards Jonas Arvidsson PS. The look and apperance can be changed by issuing prompt=$p$g to something else. -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: Andrew Aragi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Skickat: den 11 januari 2002 14:30 Till: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ämne: Re: Installation of mySQL on a Win2000 Pro machine Hi Miguel.. still in the dark. I installed mySQL into the "c:\mysql" directory. So pardon my ignorance but what is the difference between besides the ">" symbol? What does the ">" do. When I use the latter it say that this cmd is not recognized. c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-max --standalone c:\mysql\bin>mysqld-max --standalone Andrew --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
