Description:
Mysql configuration wizard error

How to repeat:
I just installed mysql 5.0.12 beta and I got one error.

On the configuration wizard on the last step when executing

it says it can't not start service.

and I can't get this to work.

Suggested fix:

Make it a little more flexible,  I have no idea why it would work.

it cannot start service.

Could you please start mysql server manually ? For example:

mysqld.exe --console

I would like to know what error message will be there.

Thank you for the report. We really need more information to be able to help you with installation (I believe it is not a bug, because I have several 5.0.12-nt installed successfully).

So:

1. Have you installed MySQL on this machine before? If yes, previous version may be running with the same service name.

2. What port did you used? Send the results of "netstat -a" command executed from the cmd.exe command line window.

3. Send the results of net start command (list of running services).

4. Please, describe all the actions you performed while configuring. All optiones you shoosed. It will help me to reduce the number of questions to ask.

Yes I can start 
mysqld.exe --console

this is the sencond time, I install mysqld the first time was yesturday but I uninstalled before installing this version.

Yes, I tried several ports, but it gives me the same error

I tried re-installing, but it didn't work, 

this is the netstat -a repport

When go to start menu -> MySQL Server Instance Config Wizard
It gives me the welcome screen and everything

I tried the two options 0 Detailed configuration and standard configuration

Right now I am going to describe the standar configuration
    (One option page per line)
  then i choose server machine
  Multifuncional Database
   -  InnoDB tablespace settings- Just pressend next
Online transaction Processing (OLTP)
  Enabled TCP/IP Networking  (checked) Port - I tried every port
 Standard character
Install as windows service (checked)
 

Ohh wait...   
   It works.

I used to choose Mysql on the next option, but this time I choose Mysql51 and It works now.

THANK YOU !!!!!

Try this guide, it helped me after all with MySQL 5.5.19 / 5.5.20.
At step 4, the service started already!
