How to repeat:
1.install mysql
2.make a database n run it
3.turn off the computer suddenly.
4.turn on your computer again
5.open mysql administrator and mysql query browser.

thats all i can repeat for the problem..

Thank you for the bug report. According the error message you have posted maybe you have your xml connections file corrupted, please open the QB help file on your  install directory and see: Appendix D. How Connections Are Stored.

Thanks in advance.

well, i have open C:\Documents and Settings\edmond\Application Data\MySQL\mysqlx_user_connections.xml

and its empty, so i put this in it

<?xml version="1.0"?>
 <user_connections>
 <last_connection>1</last_connection>
 <password_storage_type>2</password_storage_type>
 <user_connection>
  <connection_name></connection_name>
  <username>root</username>
  <hostname>localhost</hostname>
  <port>3306</port>
  <schema></schema>
  <advanced_options/>
  <storage_path></storage_path>
  <notes></notes>
  <connection_type>0</connection_type>
  <storage_type>2</storage_type>
  <password></password>
 </user_connection>
 ...

but after i put that line i still cant open my administrator and query browser...

the error pop up still appear and still the same sentences like before...
so what should i do now??

come on guys cant anyone help me???
its a serious problem...

Christopher, please keep in mind our bug system is not a support forum (use http://forums.mysql.com instead). Have you tried to remove/rename your existing connection file? QB creates a new one if it does not find any existing, allowing so to recover from broken files.

yea, i tried to remove it, n its working for now.. tysm
n sorry for misunderstanding between support forum and bugs system.
