Hello,
I'm new to MySql. In an attempt to persuade my company to use tools
other than IIS/ASP/SQL-Server, I setup a demo using Apache/PHP/MySql
(NT). Everything ran fine, and I left it all running as a standalone
over the weekend.

Today, Monday, I came in to work and typed "/mysql/bin/mysqladmin
--user=root  shutdown"
which caused a nasty "Application Error: mysqld.exe" message. 

I start/stopped mysqld several times successfully before the error
occurred, and also after it occurred. However, I can't recreate the
error! This is bad for so many reasons. Any suggestions?
(This is the evaluation version, NT 4 SP4.)
