Bug #74114	MySQL Server applications not included when adding applications

Category:	MySQL for Windows: Installer	Severity:	S2 (Serious)
Version:	5.6.21.0 Community-Web	OS:	Windows (Windows 7 SP 1)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
MySQL installer for windows simply does not list MySQL server as a product that can be installed.

After loading the installer, it shows a list of products I have installed. Correctly, the only product is MySQL Workbench 6.2.3. Upon clicking "Add", I am given a tree of applications that I can install. The top level of the tree has the following top-level entries:

- Applications
+ MySQL Workbench
+ MySQL Notifier
+ MySQL For Excel
+ MySQL for Visual Studio
+ MySQL Utilities
- MySQL Connectors
+ Connector/ODBC
+ Connector/J
+ Connector/NET
+ Connector/Python
+ Connector/C

I then tried updating the catalog to see if it would fix the problem, but it produced an error:

Upon clicking "Catalog...", I got a windows that had 3 bubbles:
"Connect to the internet",
"Download new catalog",
"Integrate product changes".

I clicked "Execute", and then I got a pop-up saying "There is a required upgrade available for MySQL Installer. To receive product catalog updates, you must apply this upgrade. Do you want to apply this upgrade now?"

I clicked "Yes", and a progress bar appeared with the caption "Downloading the update". The progress bar filled in about 2-3 seconds, and immediately after the progress bar filled, I received another pop-up saying "There was an error downloading the update. Please contact support."

How to repeat:
Simply try to use MySQL Installer: Windows to install MySQL Server Community Edition. Specifically, use "mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.21.0.msi".

Change Version from Community to Community-Web

Thank you for the bug report. Please see attached picture.

Michael, thanks for your reply. It looks like you're using a different version of MySQL Installer than the one I was using, or perhaps you're testing it under a different OS, because your screenshot does not look exactly like the application I'm running. Anyway, don't worry about it. The problem appears to have been corrected in the latest release (5.6.21.1).
