msi MySQL 4.1 installer doesn't have this problem. MY SOLUTION (Take UNLOADS and BACKUPS of data files/dirs if you need to. This is a full re-install) My solution was to get rid of all the profile application data. So ensure that you - uninstall the instance (including server) using instance configuration wizard, (in C:\Program Files\MySQL\My SQL Server 5.1\bin\MySQLInstanceConfig.exe), choosing error 0 mysql remove. - now remove MySQL via Control Panel->add/remove programs, may need to F5 refresh list if not there. - make sure MySQL dir in C:\Program Files is now deleted in its entirety. There may be old Data files lying around. - *most importantly*, make sure that any MySQL dir in the following dirs are deleted. Mine weren't hidden but worth checking that too: = C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data = C:\Documents and Settings\

Error: 0 This occurs when the Configuration Wizard tries to install the service and finds an existing service with the same name. One solution to this problem is to choose a service name other than mysql when using the configuration wizard. This enables the new service to be installed correctly, but leaves the outdated service in place. Although this is harmless, it is best to remove old services that are no longer in use. To permanently remove the old mysql service, execute the following command as a user with administrative privileges, on the command-line: shell> sc delete mysql [SC] DeleteService SUCCESS If the sc utility is not available for your version of Windows, download the delsrv utility from http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/delsrv-o.asp and use the delsrv mysql syntax. -- http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/windows-troubleshooting.html share|improve this answer answered Nov 14 '10 at 0:32 ajreal 36.6k75899 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote Usually when the service doesn't manage to start, there will be more detailed information about what went wrong somewhere: In mySQL's your_hostname_here.err f
Fresh Ideas Hi there! This is my old blog, I don't hang around here much.You can now find me trying to mix things up here: Visit WoodyHayday.com Subscribe To My Email List Cannot Create Windows Service for MySQL. Error:0 April 1, 2009By Woody If you have MySQL installed (from XAMPP or otherwise) on an xp box (this ones x64) and you update to SP2 it seems to break the mysql service - at least it did for me. This has happened several times to me but is actually easily resolved. Firstly I tried re-installing mySQL but this brought the problem "Cannot Create Windows Service for MySQL. Error:0" when trying to install the actual service post install. To get over this you need to wipe the service out so MySQL can recreate it. Make sure you have admin rights on the box and go to CMD and enter: sc delete mysql That should delete the service, then if your in XAMPP just restart the service from your control panel and it will pop up allowing you to add a firewall rule. If you arent using XAMPP simply reinstall mysql after uninstalling/deleting service as above. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Bookmark the permalink.

Thanks. nanoblast Posted June 27, 2009 at 2:12 pm hi my problem is, I am trying to install MySQL on my Vista x64… the installer I have is MySQL5.1 for 64 bit windows (yes I'm sure)… the point is… I never had MySQL on my PC before, but still get the same problem… well at the first install the server couldn't be started (it created, but I cannot start even at windows task manager, or service manager) please Help I need it for an L2j server Thanks: Zsolt Woody Posted July 6, 2009 at 9:54 pm You should be fine on vista x64…although its not my preference for an OS unless you have 8gb + ram. Does the above not solve it? Neven Posted August 29, 2010 at 3:00 pm Thank You very very much. I tried so many "solutions" but just yours helped. 🙂 Woody Posted August 29, 2010 at 8:30 pm No worries 😀 Ayeisha Posted August 6, 2012 at 1:13 pm Great. That was very useful.
