Could fix this by renaming aria_log_control, ib_lofgile0 and ib_logfile1.
MySQL DB started after this but I now get timeouts when I try to start phpmyadmin or my Wordpress site.
The default XAMPP dashboard (https://localhost/dashboard/) works.
When trying to start phpmyadmin there's no error. It just stuck in the "Loading..."' phase.
When I try to go to the Wordpress Site I get this error:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 120 seconds exceeded in C:\xampp\htdocs\WordpressTestSite\wp-includes\class-wpdb.php on line 1990
Just increasing the max_execution_time in php.ini doesn't solve this. I tried that already.
Any tips are appreciated. Thanks!
