If you want to use the @code{InnoDB} transactional tables, you

need to manually create two new directories to hold the InnoDB

data and log files, e.g. @file{c:\ibdata} and @file{c:\iblogs}.

C:\> C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root shutdown

@end example

This calls the MySQL administation utility as user `root', which

is the default Administrator in the MySQL grant system. Please

note that the MySQL grant system is wholly independent from any

login users under Windows.

Note that Win95 and Win98 don't support creation of named pipes.

On Win95 and Win98, you can only use named pipes to connect to a

remote MySQL server running on a Windows NT/2000 server host.

C:\mysql\bin> mysqladmin -u root shutdown

@end example

This calls the MySQL administation utility as user `root', which

is the default Administrator in the MySQL grant system. Please

Now install the server service:

@example

C:\mysql\bin> mysqld-max-nt --install

@end example

If any options are required, they must be specified as

``Startup parameters'' in the SCM utility before you

start the MySQL service.

The SCM Utility (Windows Service Control Manager) can

be found in the Windows Control Panel.

For information about which server binary to run, see

@ref{Windows prepare environment}.

Please note that from MySQL version 3.23.44, you have the choice

to set up the service as Manual (if you don't wish the Windows

Service Control Manager SCM to automatically start the server

during the boot process):

of set up the service as Manual instead (if you don't wish the

To start or stop the MySQL server service:

@example

C:\> NET START MySQL

C:\> NET STOP MySQL

@end example

The service is installed with the name @code{MySQL}. Once

installed, it must be started using the Services Control

Manager (SCM) Utility found in the Control Panel, or by

using the @code{NET START MySQL} command.

or by using the command @code{NET START MySQL}.

Once running, @code{mysqld-max-nt} can be stopped using

@code{mysqladmin}, from the SCM utility or by using the

If you use SCM to stop @code{mysqld-max-nt}, there is a strange

message from SCM about @code{mysqld shutdown normally}.

When run as a service, @code{mysqld-max-nt} has no access to a

console and so no messages can be seen.

On NT/2000 you can get the following service error messages:

@multitable @columnfractions .3 .7

@item Permission Denied @tab

Means that it cannot find @code{mysqld-max-nt.exe}.

@item Cannot Register @tab

Means that the path is incorrect.

@item Failed to install service. @tab

Means that the service is already installed or that the Service

Control Manager is in bad state.
