Hello!(and Help!)
I have installed MySQL on a pc with Windows XP. Everything worked fine and the databaseserver did start with the command MySQLd-max --standalone (see startmessage at the end). My first testing with mysqlshow was successfull. At this point i did shut down my pc with the ambition to continue the following day.
Well this is the end of the happy part. When i tried to start the the database server next day it responded nothing after executing my the same startupcommand. When testing the server with the mysqlshow-command i get the answer " Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)". This happened after installing version 3.23.42 of MySQL. I thought that the reason for the behavior was that this version dont work properly under Windows XP. Therefore i un installed and fetched the latest version 4.0.2 alpha. But the result is the same.
I have tried all possibilities that i have ben able to find in the manual but with no success.
Installed mysqld-max-nt as a service did work but the service dosen´t start even if i order it.
Telnet localhost answers "fails to connect to the hostcomputer at port 23. Cant create a connection because the target computer denies it" (message translated from Swedish).
Telnet 3306 results in the same message except for the "target computer denies" part.
The MySQL.err-file contains an error message after every attempt to start the server:
"020723 15:32:24 InnoDB: Operating system error number 123 in a file operation.
InnoDB: See http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html for installation help.
InnoDB: Look from section 13.2 at http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html
InnoDB: what the error number means.
InnoDB: File name c:\ibdata\c:\ibdata\ibdata1
InnoDB: Cannot continue operation."
I looked at the explanation but it does not make much sens at this stage.
"123 The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. ERROR_INVALID_NAME"
Can someone give me a hint how go on from this. What steps can i do to come over this wall.
Sincerely
Jorgen Hanak
