Anthony, did you try to run the mysql_fix_privilege_tables script? It should fix the privileges tables. Best regards, Hakan

Yes, I found the script and ran it. It created the tables and a restart did not produce any errors in the log. Why was it not part of the install process? There was no message stating it should be run.

Changing bug type to "installing"; this is not specifically a Falcon bug.

Probably missing from the config file for the MSI packager.

Hello, Exactly the same problem when installing 5120 64 bit on vista64. The work arround is to run the script. So from that point of view this bug is not critical. However, IMHO it is very SERIEUS that packages are not checked against a "good" basic testset, before they are released! Sincerely, Louis

Needs to be re-verified, likely fixed by other changes.

This problem still exists in a sense that once you have installed 6.0.2 on Windows and got that error, upgrading to 6.0.4 will fail. I assume that the 6.0.4 mysql_upgrade.exe is not prepared to handle this situation. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install 6.0.2 2. Install 6.0.4 in same directory. 6.0.2 service will be stopped and 6.0.2 will be uninstalled. 3. The 6.0.4 configuration wizard will start the service, however will then report that it can not "Apply security settings" due to "access denied"

Actually please disregard my previous comment -- it must be due to some other issue. A vanilla 6.0.4 installation in a clean directory also prints this error message in the Application Event Log. Can't open and lock privilege tables: Table 'mysql.servers' doesn't exist

Hello, I wonder when this serieus bug, which is already there for at least a year, will (at the end) be fixed. Can't be too hard IMHO. Note that I see it also on a fresh 5.1.23 install on both vista64 as well as xp32. Please fix it also iun 5.x !!!!! Sincerely, Louis

Pushed changes for 6.0 to the mysql-server-setup repository today. The next time the 6.0 installers are built all the default system tables will be included in the package.

Noted in 6.0.6 changelog. The mysql.servers table was not created during installation on Windows.

Has it fixed in version 5.1?

Please ignore previous comment: fix for 5.1.25 is reflected in bug #32797

Fixed in 5.1.26 >> http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=36434 c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1 c:\Program Data\MySQL\ Need to be cleared on upgrade sometimes.

Selected Typical installation, default configuration of the server. This was done to a machine where v6 was installed and removed, then the entire folders removed, so there was nothing remaining from a former installation. Suggested fix: Include the definition and default data for the mysql.servers table in the install.
