It also searches during the configuration of the mysql instance for the my-template.ini in the \bin directory. 

the installer reports the the my-template.cnf is missing in {installDir}\bin but copying the my-template.ini from {installDir} to {installDir}\bin makes the configurator running further. 

after that it can't start the service since it wrote {installDir}\bin\bin to the windows register. 

search the register for \bin\bin and change it to \bin and the service starts ok.

Thank you for the bug report. Verified on 32-bit Windows XP also.

Documented fix in the NDB 7.2.14 changelog as follows:

        The MySQL Cluster Windows installer attempted to use the wrong
        path to the my.ini file and the executables directory.

Closed.
