dennylin93 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I tried installing MySQL on Windows XP Professional, but it didn't work. I already have Apache HTTP Server 2.2 and PHP 5.2 installed. Could anyone tell me how to install MySQL 5.0 properly because I didn't really understand the steps from the manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhaslip Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Have you tried using a one-click installer like XAMPP? Works like a charm. Also, there are some things which need to be handled differently in Windows XP. You need to change a dll file or something.I would be tempted to uninstall the Apache and Php and use XAMPP or an equivilant installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I don't think anyone can re-state what the manual says to make it any more clear. I followed the steps in the MySQL manual and got it working after a little bit of time. Expect to spend half an hour to an hour getting it set up, but go through the manual and have patience.
