Re: Set Path Environment
Hi, Just to clarify a bit, the file in \windows is called winstart.bat, but it seems to be discontinued in Windows XP (may not be available in W2K either). In Windows NT it works, though. In NT/W2K/XP the most efficient way to modify these variables _and_ persist them is through My Computer->Properties... as I noted in an earlier message. After thinking this a bit, it'd be very nice if the MySQL setup program offered an option to automatically add mysql\bin to the PATH environment variable (whoever is responsible of the setup, please consider this!) on Windows.

Re: Set Path Environment
Under NT and XP you set the environment variables by clicking on the My Computer icon and selecting Properties, then clicking the Environment variables on the Advanced tab. Make sure you set the PATH under the System Variables instead of User Variables if you want MySQL to be available to all users.

Re: Set Path Environment
Try to modify the autoexec.bat if you are using Win9x or the Path User env in Winnt. Another choice in some systems is to modify DOSTART.bat or something like that in "\windows". A way to keep the previous setting of the PATH env is to issue a stat like SET PATH=%PATH%;c:\mysql; ... I hope this helps. Leonardo Javier Belen.

Re: Set Path Environment
Hello, On Windows 9x edit your c:\autoexec.bat On Windows NT/2000/XP/.NET, right-click My Computer, then Properties, then on XP click Advanced tab and then "Environment Variables". On NT/2000 this procedure is about the same, only the Environment stuff is on a different tab. Then re-run autoexec.bat or reload your command prompt, respectively.

This is more information regarding the Path for my machine. It shows the default PATH information and the PATH information after I perform the SET PATH command. It also shows how MySQL responds after I type MySQL at the command prompt.

Set Path Environment
Hello All, I am having trouble with MySQL in dos. When I type in mysql from the c:\> prompt, I get the following error: C:\>mysql 'mysql' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I tried the SET PATH command and this works fine when I have dos open. But when I start another session of dos later the settings are gone. Does anyone know how to set this as the default path?? Thank you very much for your assistance and have a nice day.
