MySQL Error

[The_Wiz0rd]

Hello, I downloaded everything and did as the video instructed, however upon opening MySQL I get this error:

Any ideas? Im currently running Window 7 64bit.

I'm not really famillar with the error tbh, however have you tried googling it?

It's a fresh download with nothing modified?
Are you having permission to run the MySQL & Not anythign blocking it? (This could specially be the reason)

Hmm I could try unzipping a fresh set of everything and see if that fixes it and I've tried running it without my antivirus stuff but the same error shows up. I will try again with a fresh unrared set again and get back to you.

Ok after some tweaking and downloading I get this error now

I'm glad you fixed the previous error.

This basically tells you, that you already have another MySQL up and running, so make sure the port is not in use, look for it being open already, or restart your PC.

Once again I found my own solution haha. I had downloaded the mysql workbench of which part of it ran without me asking. That was what was fighting me couple with missing the 2008 version of C++. Server fired right up afterward like nothing had happened.

Haha okay, glad you figured it out on your own!

Closing issue.
