WampServer

Looking for some help here, apparently it's a common problem.

Tested Port 80, only Apache running.

MySQL service wont start. When I try services.msc, I get error 1067.

Any help?

try searching for my.ini and my.cnf across your whole disk.

If you find it anywhere other than the wamp folder tree delete them.

then restart all services

Only one my.ini, and it's in my WAMP folder. Couldn't find my.cnf on my disk.

Have a look in the MSQL Log, use the wamp manager menu to locate and edit it.

Post what s in there.


If thats empty then lok at windows event viewer for messages from MySQL, post them if they dont make the problem obvious

OK heres a possible fix.
Your problem tend to happen if for some reason these files get corrupted!

Stop all service in wamp.

delete ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1 and ibdata1 from the c:\wamp\bin\mysql5.x.y\data folder

go to wamp manager and start all services.

Check your mysql log again.

This folder? C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.24\data

Those files aren't in that folder.

Something must be very wrong with your install. Can you uninstall and re-install wamp again.

This is actually the 10th time I've re-installed, without exaggerating. I'll try it again.

Well if that does not work we are going to have to try a Team Viewer connection so I can actually see whatis what on your system

STOP REINSTALLING.. what do you think it will achieve???


please get teamviewer and Myself or Chris will take a look at it

Relax. I was trying the different packages from Wampserver, and different install directories before having to bother someone on these forums for a fix.

I have the same problem and no solution in site. Installed the redistributable 64bit stuff, WampServer 64bit on a fresh / new install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. At first, it worked and I was able to view the default databases via phpMyAdmin. However after rebooting MySQL won't start but says Starting in Windows Services. In searching for answers online I find a few users on StackOverflow.com having the same issue. Works out of the box, fails after rebooting the computer.

Tons of Windows Event Viewer Errors: Unknown/unsupported storage engine: InnoDB despite having skip-innodb in the my.ini file


Going to try to reinstall

# start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
# if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to

# overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
# the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.

Solved.
Uninstalled WampServer.
Installed WampServer after populating C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.24\data\ with files from my old development environment.

# 2013-06-18 commented out
# socket=mysql

Still problem exists.

Sushi,

Do a search for my.ini and/or my.cnf on your C:\ drive.
If you find one anywhere outside the c:\wamp\... folders, delete it.
