Description:
During some maintainance on my MySQL server, I evidently entered something wrong with the port and bind address. This caused my MySQL Server to crash. I then attempted to reinstall it completely (Removing all Files including the INI) I then installed it again and set it up using everything that is Default used. This did not run normaly, so I executed it through MS-DOS/Command and it returned error

"mysqld-nt: Can't Read Dir of 'art\' <ERRCODE 2>"

This bug is true to

4.0.18, and 3.23.58 (The Version we started with)

Any Suggested Fixes?

How to repeat:
Unknown

Probable Cause

Un-Noted Port

#port=3306 ---> port=3306

added

bind-address=t-inc.net & bind-address=12.170.202.110 which = ---> bind-address=192.168.2.2, bind-address=t-inc.net, bind-address=12.170.202.110

If you can provide more information, feel free to add it
to this bug and change the status back to 'Open'.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.

Additional info:

The best way to find out what is going on is to use the mysqld-debug binary
and execute this as follows in a dos window:

cd mysql-base-directory
.\bin\mysqld-debug --debug --standalone

The file: c:\mysqld.trace should contain information that should enable you to figure out what is going wrong.

Another thing you can try is to move all your old my.cnf file away to ensure that mysqld doesn't try to use any wrong option files

You can check what options mysqld is trying to use by doing:

.\bin\mysqld --print-defaults

The manual includes a lot of more information about things to try...
