OK, I've tried the my.cnf changes and nothing seems to work. When Itry to start the service I get the following:
c:\mysql\bin> net start mysql
System error 2 has occurred
The system cannot find the file specified
Should I try and uninstall and start again? If so could you tell me how to uninstall MySQL because every time try it won't let me do it (even though I have dministrator rights on my machine.
Things are way beyond desperate now...
yes it would be better to reinstall mysql :
- kill the mysqld-nt.exe process with the task manager if it exists.
- delete the directory c:\mysql and all subdirectories
- delete c:\windows\my.ini
- reinstall mysql, preferably stable version (4.0.20)
- run c:\mysql\bin\winmysqladmin
- you should have an icon in the system tray, right click, Winnt / Install the service and net start mysql
- add c:\mysql\bin to your path
- try to log to mysql using : mysql -u root
This is a windows installation. The configuration file is in /windows or /winnt and the name is my.ini. Rename my.in and start mysql using winmysqladmin. If you want to reinstall I recommend using the zip to install mysql, not the exe with installer. There is a new version mysql 4.0.20.d for windows.
Hi. You should check the error messages Mysql stored in it's .err file. This file is either \mysql\data\mysql.err or \mysql\data\name.err (where "name" is your machine's name).
I once had this problem and it was a wrong size in innodb logs. I just deleted the logs and mysql started to work again (I could do that 'cos I didn't care for the data...)
good luck,
krahd.

I had the same problem in oracle database. I explored internet much and finaly I found reson.
In my case the problem was in different names my computer - when after I installed oracle database I change name of my computer. When re-establish old name the service started without errors :)

I solved this problem!
I had the problem with Oracle.
It failed to start the 2nd service OracleServiceXE
because the path was wrong. I manually fixed it. (using knowledge from the Oracle uninstall manually instructions)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\
Go there
Ensure image path is
C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\pro
probably it will be wrong.
do the same for all the services under
services.msc
start menu-->run-->services.msc -->anything that starts with Oracle and doesnt start.
Have the same problem here and solve it.
Try :
netstat -nab
If you see a line like this :
TCP 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
[mysqld-nt.exe]
That means the mysqld-nt.exe already in listening state on port 3306. So from your Task Manager try to find the program and kill itfirst. Then restart the service. It looks like the program executed not as service after I install it.

From MySQL manual:
A system error has ocurred.
System Error 1067 has ocurred.
The process was terminated unexpectedly.
These errors mean that your option file (by default `C:\my.cnf') contains an option that cannot be recognized by MySQL. You can verify that this is the case by trying to restart MySQL with the option file renamed to prevent the server from using it. (For example, rename `C:\my.cnf' to `C:\my_cnf.old'.) Once you have verified it, you need to identify which option is the culprit. Create a new `my.cnf' file and move parts of the old file to it (restarting the server after you move each part) until you determine which option causes server startup to fail.
