MySQL Failing to launch [Solved]
Posted: 17. February 2012 22:25
Hi, I recently installed xampp and am having issues getting mysql to start.
I'm running windows XP SP3, Xampp version 1.7.7. I've opened up port 80, 81, 443 and 3306. Apache starts and stops fine with no issue and I am able to view the Xampp home page locally (I'll only be running it for local use). When I start MySQL it says it's starting then dies with no error message. This is what I'm receiving in the error file:
I do not have any previous versions of mysql running on my machine, just the one installed with xampp. I am unable to find any "xamppfiles" directory as mentioned here: http://community.apachefriends.org/f/viewtopic.php?p=153428
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Brandon
