Mysql won't run (not a port problem)
Posted: 04. March 2013 16:19Hey guys,
Sorry if this has been asked before but I've just spent the best part of an hour and a half looking through the forum for a fix that works for me and none of them have done so far.
When i run XAMPP both Apache and Filezilla run off the bat but when i try and run Mysql i get this error in my logs.
which i haven't seen yet elsewhere.
I've tried changing the ports, first to 8080, then when that didn't work to 3308 on both the my.ini and php.ini files, which seems to be the main problem for most people.
I had got WAMP server installed until recently, but i uninstalled everything to do with that to clear way for XAMPP (which is why i needed to change the ports straight away)
Is there anything i can try to make mysql actually run?
Thanks for reading, any help would be greatly appreciated.
