First the Install issue: The error for you reported happens when the installer tries to write a file and gets an denied write OS operation due the same binary is running. So for you be sure, try CRTL+ALT+DEL and verify if the server or a client executable has a process running, also if you have a client which uses the libmysql.dll should cause the same error. Regarding WinMySQLAdmin please copy to the \mysql\bin directory the \mysql\lib\opt\libmysql.dll file and try again. Notice that if you install the stuff in another location than the default c:\mysql you need to create the my.ini file in your windir directory (e.g.: windows\winnt\custom_windir) and to edit the variables basedir and datadir pointing for the correct paths. Further information you can find at: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Windows_installation.html

Yes you need to create the service either manually or using a client tool because currently the installer don't install the service during the setup process. What exactly the permissions problems are you having ?

I am using version 4.0.20d and found that the service will not start up unless the software is installed in the root folder. Installing it into c:\progra~1\mysql of c:\program files\mysql will work but the service will not start up. These were my reproduction steps: 1. Download and install http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-4.0/mysql-4.0.20d-win.zip/from/ftp://mysql.mirror... 2. Specify installation folder "c:\program files\mysql" 3. After installation, goto Start Menu->Run and enter "cmd" 4. On the command prompt, enter the following commands: a) c: b) cd \progra~1\mysql\bin c) mysqld -install 5. Reboot computer. RESULT 1. Service not started automatically 2. Trying to start service manyally using Window's service control manager displays an error message NOTES 1. The problem can be circumvented by insatlling MySQL into "c:\mysql"

Hi, I installed the server in the Program Files\mysql directory without problems. Please using in this page the tab Files see the picture attached how to configure the my.ini file and the install and start process. Thanks,
