Hey Guys,

This has happened for a while... I can not start MySQL.

I tried to reinstall but it didn't work. All it was saying Starting MySQL.

Any idea why it's not working?

Are there any errors in your MySQL error log? (/xampp/mysql/data/mysql_error.log)

What Windows version and XAMPP version are you running?

Have you tried the newer control panel (xampp-control-3-beta.exe)?
