After installing Xampp 8.03 for Windows in a different directory than the default I tried to enter the database with the aim of changing the password. However, when I run Mysqld I get the errors
Can't create test file c:\xampp\mysql\data\LAPTOP-JOD2HF4P.lower-test
AND
Can't change dir to 'c:\xampp\mysql\data\' (Errcode: 2 "No such file or directory")
As Xampp is installed in D:\xampp80 it looks like the install procedure forgot to change some paths.
