MYSQL :: Server Instance Config

Problems Running With Instance Config Wizard
I can't seem to run the Instance Config Wizard for MySQL 5.0 on my computer. I am running windows Vista and each time I attempt to run the Wizard it responds with a dialog box:

"The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log for more details."

How do I resolve this issue?

Server Instance Issue
I am really scratching my head with server instances. Sometimes when i want to add a server instance(through MySQL server instance config), I fail to add and receive either an 'error0' or 'data directory was not removed automitcally' error. (I have a feelng the second error was because i uninstalled an old copy of MySQL)

I assume that my server instance add process have failed. However, the next time i restarted my PC, i can actually view the successfully created server instance in the MySQL server instance config delete choices.

Well, I was happy that the service was created despite the oddity. I then tried to open MySQLAdministrator and i can see the server running for few seconds before it shows the server has stopped, i tried restarting the server but without success.

Whenever i open the MySQLAdministrator panel, i see the service running a few seconds before it stops again. I close MySQLAdministrator and reopen to see the server running a while before stopping again. Why is this happening?

I have done several unistallation. And if this problem persist, i will have to do it once more. But is there anything else that is not removed from uninstallation that is hampering my progress?

MySQL Server Instance
Brand new to the community, thanks for having me. I'm having a bit of trouble with my config wizard in that once I click execute it will run through the process of setting up services, security settings etc, however, thats all it will do, as it just stops responding and will not finish the wizard. Do I have to do something beforehand?

MySQL Server Instance Configuration Installation
Hi everyone. I just tried installing MySQL Community Edition, but it has frozen up during the final step (MySQL Server Instance Configuration). I'm installing it on Windows XP, and I used all the default settings, except that I changed "Detailed Configuration" to "Standard Configuration". The installation window now says "Not Responding" and I don't know what to do. I guess if I shut it down manually, MySQL won't be configured properly. I don't know if this will corrupt the installation, or if the installation part has already finished.

MySQL Server Instance Configuration Wizard
I just downloaded and installed MySQL 5.0 on a P4, Windows XP Pro system and followed the Server Instance Configuration Wizard. Once I have selected the default settings, and clicked Execute, I get an error message

Cannot create Windows service for MySQL. Error: 0

MySQL Config
I have installed MySQL on Windows98se twice under different paths, and then
deleted the second installation. When i run MySQL as usual using the line
"C:Program Files
uspheremysqlinmysqld-opt.exe" , i get the following
error msg:

C:Program Files
uspheremysqlinmysqld-opt.exe: Fatal error: Can't find
messagefile 'C:Program Files
usphere2mysqlshareenglisherrmsg.sys'

notice that it runs from "nusphere" but tries to find the errmsg.sys file
under the other folder "nuspehere2" which i have deleted.

I tried looking for a config file so that i can force MySQL to look in the
proper "nusphere" path, but i could not find any. I have also tried to look
for an entry in the registry but came out with nothing aswell.

Have I missed something? Any ideas on how to solve this?

MySQL Config Error
I have been tasked to create a CMS for a website, however first I must install it locally to my laptop.

I have chosen Joomla! as my CMS, and I understand that in order to run that I must first install Apache, MySQL, and PHP (in that order).

Apache installed fine, as did MySQL (the most recent version), however, it will not let me configure it or run the config tool at the end of the installation, citing the message:
"the side-by-side configuration is incorrect."

Does anybody have any idea why this keeps happening and what I can do to resolve it?

MySQL Config Not Running

Please see the application event log for more detail." I cannot find the application event log, though.

MySQL, Joining 2 Tables.. How In This Instance?
Well, the way I have my tables set up there is specific info I need from one of them in order to do some processing on another. While the design might be flawed, it intriguied me to find out how to do this.. which is why im here.

I have a table called "teams" which contains the following information...
teamid, teamname, teamcaptain, etc...

I have a table called "league" which contains the following information...
playerid, playername, team, etc...

Now teams.teamid and league.team both contain the id of the team.

I need to query the MySQL database based on teams.teamname and get all of the players (who are in the league table) who belong to that team. My problem is, in the league table I only have teamid. So I somehow need to join these 2 tables in order to get this info?

I have tried: SELECT * FROM teams join league on teams.teamid = league.team where teamname=$teamname

I get the teamname info back, however all of the other fields seem to be blank?

Connecting To Mysql Instance On Your Web Hosting Provider
I was wondering if it possible to connect to a remote instance of mysql running on the provider that hosts my website.

Basically, I want to be able to access the tables within my database, without having to use the phpMyAdmin web interface. I want to *directly* access my database through a local ODBC connection running on my local windows machine. Does anyone know if web hosting providers typically offer this service?

MAXDB Not Allow To Create More Than 5 Instance On Database Manage
I have several problems with my MAXDB, IÂ´m New user. The problem appears when I try to create more than 5 instance on DATABASE MANAGER, it close all conections and shut down all database, i have install it on LINUX DEBIAN 1.3 with MAXDB 7.5.

In addition to this, when I send more than 500 Mb. of data to my server it closes all connetions..

Cant Start Windows Service (Instance) In Win98
When I tryied to install the MySQL Server 4.1 in WinXP the part when we choose to instal a Windows Service, was availabe to choose... Then in Win98 it's not, so what can I do?

Temporary Table Accessable Only In Instance Of Procedure
If I have a procedure that will be run simultaneously by several people
which requires the use of a temporary table is there a way for the table
to be accessible only in the instance in which the procedure is being
run so that multiple tables can have the same name but not have
collisions?

I would normally think to name the table with a random
string but apparently SQL rules do not allow dynamically generated table
names. The other thing I would try is to have a permanent memory table
with the structure I need, with an additional column that would be
populated with a random number that indicates which batch is being
processed, with the contents being deleted right before the procedure
ends.

I don't know what kind of impact that would have on the server,
and am hesitant to try as my test environment has nowhere near the
capacity of the production environment, in just about every way possible.

Preventing Multiple Instance Of Mysqld In Linux (r937?)
I would like to know if anyone knows how to prevent multiple instances of mysqld from being created by linux. It seems, and I'm sure that I'm wrong, but when I set parameters like innodb_buffer_pool_size to use 25% of the RAM on my box and then 10 mysqld instances popup the system grinds to a halt!!

I'd like to tune my server but I only want there to be one instance of mysql (this is how it works on my dev box, which sadly, is running windoze). What do I need to do so that I can tune the server parameter without having to worry about mysql killing the system?

How To Stop An Executing Procedrue ,Other Than Stopping The Database Instance

Configure A 'config.inc.php' File (was "phpMyAdmin")
This is my first go at creating a PHP/MYSQL website so please could someone help me?

Basically i'm using phpMyAdmin to manage my MYSQL database on my webserver. However you have to configure a 'config.inc.php' file before you can use the system. Can anyone talk me through what settings I need to include in this config file to make it secure?

Mainly i'm worried about the differences between 'cookie', 'conifg' and 'http' modes. What do they mean (i've tried reading the FAQ's but they don't help much for newbee's!)? Which one should I use?

I hope someone can just give me some clear advice on what I need to do to get my database online and relatively secure.

Linux Server V/s Windows Server ( WebServer - LAMP V/s WAMP)
My client wants to use WAMP ( Windows + apache + MySQL + PHP ). But the
site performance is very slow on windows. I dont know the exact
reasons.

I have seen some benchmark details on internet. But still they are not
having concrete facts to support LAMP as a better alternative to WAMP.
Allmost all the search done on google melts down to IIS vs Apache, My
main concern is "Apache on LINUX" v/s "Apache on Windows" and similarly
for PHP/MySQL.

Update Table A For Every Instance In Table B
I have learned how to select records from two tables but now, I need to update every record in table A based on keys found in table B.

I have a KEY which I can match to records in table B and table B has a field which I can match to records in table A. I need to update table A and possibly table B.

How do I go about this?

Transferring Tables From Testing Server To Online Server
I need to copy my tables from a testing server on a local area network to my hosting companies online server. Is this something I can use MySQL Query Browser to do, and if so how?

Lost Connection To MySQL Server During Query / Server Has Gone Away
All of a sudden the server stopped working. When trying to execute a simple INSERT both from PHP and Query Browser, the server crashes and I get either "Lost connection to MySQL server during query" or "Server has gone away" errors.

The problem started on 5.0.18, and upgrading to 5.0.41 didn't help. I'm using Windows XP SP2.

I've seen quite a few posts on similar problems, but no real solutions though. Is that a bug?

Server Instance Config

After installing MySQL 4.1.13a, Server Instance Config Wizard runs. At the end of the wizard it wants to execute, to finalize the configuration. Though once it gets to the point of executing the Service. It fails.
