Unable to start MySQL

Postby jon_e_cache » 06. January 2013 13:39

I am unable to start MySQL Services. I am running with Admin rights. The error line indicates that I have the wrong file path, but I cannot find the file that contains the wrong path string. My.ini has no such file path string. I am thinking it is somewhere in the Windows Registry, but cannot find it.
