MySQL 5.0 Error?
 

Hello all,

Trying to get MySQL 5.0 installed and running and when I get to the final step of the install wizard and click the execute button when it gets to start service i get a red x and a message which reads "Could not start the MySQL. Error:0" I have tried to uninstall it and run thru the set up a few times and each time i get he same message.

Any help would be greatly appreciated in fixing this issue

A simple Google for "Could not start the MySQL. Error:0" brings up a whole lot of help, including:

"mysql --help" gives you the full list
