I am trying to get Xampp up and running. Previously I used wamp. My computer is Windows 7.
On my computer, I already have MySql installed. Do I need to move all the data to the XAMPP directories?
I do have the server running.
3:18:16 PM [mysql] MySQL Service detected with wrong path
3:18:16 PM [mysql] Change XAMPP MySQL and Control Panel settings or
3:18:16 PM [mysql] Uninstall/disable the other service manually first
3:18:16 PM [mysql] Found Path: "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\mysqld" --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini" MySQL
3:18:16 PM [mysql] Expected Path: c:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysqld.exe --defaults-file=c:\xampp\mysql\bin\my.ini mysql
3:18:16 PM [mysql] Problem detected!
3:18:16 PM [mysql] Port 3306 in use by ""C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\mysqld" --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini" MySQL"!
3:18:16 PM [mysql] MySQL WILL NOT start without the configured ports free!
3:18:16 PM [mysql] You need to uninstall/disable/reconfigure the blocking application
3:18:16 PM [mysql] or reconfigure MySQL and the Control Panel to listen on a different port
When I try phpMyAdmin I get the following error.
The latest MySql server is 5.1.73 community version - not the 5.5.0 in the error message.
phpMyAdmin - Error
You should upgrade to MySQL 5.5.0 or later.
