Hello,

I've been trying to start mysqld from an application I wrote, wiring up =
a "server start" button and a "server stop" button.  Unfortunately, when =
I call the bat file which calls the mysql program, and test it using =
mysql from another window, it cannot connect to the database.  It shows =
that it is running, however.  If I start the bat file from the command =
line, it works just fine.  I'm on a Windows 98 box running a java =
application which just calls a bat file containing:

cd c:\mysql\bin
mysql-opt

The "server stop" button works just fine; it calls:

c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin --user=3Duser -password=3Dpassword shutdown

Any hints?

Thanks,
George Johnson
