I tryed many times to instal it as a service with the batch program...

Who can help me?

Hi,

did you copy the my.cnf to C:\
please d so, and edit the Paths in the my.cnf
Cos it needs to be on System Root when you want it to run as a service.

So long

I did. But it won't work.
I have the latest version of xampp and installed in c:\xampp

The my.cnf file:

Oh..........

I fixed the problem.
I searched this forum, and found an anser is deutch..
I deleted the my.ini in the windows folder, reinstalled the service, and i had rebooted by computer.

IT WORKS!!!! WHEE

Thanksss
