How are you trying to run it? Also make sure you have a hosts file in your
c:\windows directory.
create a hosts file with localhost in it.
ie:
127.0.0.1 localhost
Then save the file as hosts in the c:\windows directory

DEAR SIR,
I AM UNABLE TO USE Mysql SOFTWARE. I HAVE INSTALLED MySql ON MY C
DRIVE AS C:\MYSQL . BUT WHEN I EXECUTE, IT RAISES THE FOLLOWING
ERROR
1. HOST localhost not found,unable to connect to Mysql server.
MY SYSTEM CONTAINS TCP/IP PROTOCAL AND HAVE WIN98/WIN NT 4.0 operating
system.
I WOULD BE THANKFUL TO YOU IF YOU KINDLY SEND ME THE DETAILS ASAP.
I WANT TO RUN MYSQL ON BOTH WIN98 AND WIN NT 4.0
WITH REGARDS.
