For the shortcut, change ..."--defaults-file=C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\my.ini"... into in the ..."--defaults-file=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\my.ini"... in Properties and this will help you to launch the command prompt of MySQL Server properly. For the firewall, I notice that there is "MySQL" with port "3306" in the exceptions, and I have no idea for the failure. P.S. Try to reinstall via seperated packages instead of MySQL Installer for Windows.

Does anybody still see this error on any Windows version with recent binaries, 5.5.22?

Above is the log file that was generated when I was using the mysql-installer-5.5.22.0.msi file to create a developer installation on my Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit laptop. While going through the configuration steps it failed to create a firewall rule. I looked over the log and it looks like the netsh command used by the installer is deprecated and now it looks like you would need to use "netsh advfirewall firewall" I'm going to attempt to add my firewall rule manually. Hope this helps w/ fixing the bug.

This happens with version 5.5.23 as well: mysql-server-5.5-winx64:60 - Adding firewall rule for MySQL55 on port 3306. mysql-server-5.5-winx64:66 - Adding firewall rule failed. Perhaps it's because I'm NOT running Windows Firewall?

I solved the problem! Remove TCP/IP Microsoft version 6, from Network Properties in Win XP.

I encountered this problem with version 5.5.25 using Windows 7 (x64). I attempted to disable IP version 6, as suggested, using the following instructions: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929852#letmefixit However, after reboot and reinstallation, the problem still occurs.

I also tried removing IP 6 using the fixit4me application: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929852#fixit4me After running that, rebooting, and reinstalling, the problem still arose.

A couple of things look like potential issues here. This worked for me on Win7 First of all, is the windows firewall running? Ignore what it says under Control Panel > Windows Firewall, this is misleading in Windows Vista and later. Instead check under Control Panel > Admin Tools > Services > Windows Firewall. If the service isn't running, start it. If the service is already running, have you ran through adding the exceptions manually? Quote from: monkeypigs on November 16, 2012, 04:11:43 PM You also need to open port 3306 on the windows firewall. As you've said that you are on Windows 7, you also have to add it to the windows firewall (even if it is disabled, it can still block services like SQL) You can either do this via Control Panel > Admin Tools > Windows Firewall, and add new rules for port 3306 Or select start > enter CMD into the search box, right click on it, select run as admin and enter Code: [Select] netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Open SQL Server Port 3306" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=3306 netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Open SQL Server Port 3306" dir=out action=allow protocol=TCP localport=3306 If you're running a third party firewall, try disabling that during the install (You can always manually add the exceptions later, but don't forget to restart your third party firewall) Failing that, just untick the "Add exceptions to the firewall" box on the SQL install wizard and see what happens.
