RE: Cannot create Windows service for MySql. Error: 0

[Mark Leith]

I usually find that this means there is already a "MySQL" service
defined - you can verify this in Start/Control Panel/Administrative
Tools/Services.

If there is a service that exists, go to your current \mysql\bin
directory within a command prompt and issue "mysqld-nt --remove" which
will delete the current installed service.

If you can't get to this (i.e the install dir has been removed) - with
the new installer you can use a different name for the service, such as
MYSQL41.

Hello.

What exact version do you install? Use 4.1.8.

Did you stop the previous instance of MySQL (if you have such one)?

Please close all the executable files and the applications that uses
MySQL's

dlls. Can you start MySQL from Windows Command Line?
