The MySQL database server is the world's most widely used open source database. Its ingenious software architecture makes it extremely fast and easy to customize (ported by different authors).

This software is distributed as compressed package. You have to download and manually install it; if prerequisites are required, you will have to manually install them too.

Manual installation

Program is distributed as ZIP package: download to temporary directory and unpack to destination folder. See below for download link(s). For a new 5.1.72 installation:

in the destination folder, unzip mysql_sample_database.zip to create the \data directory
create a program object for mysqld!l.exe
run mysql_upgrade to upgrade mysql tables
with the command "mysqladmin -u root password NEWPASSWORD" set new password for "root" user

Useful WPS objects, assuming program was installed in C:\PROGRAMS\MYSQL5 directory:

"C:\PROGRAMS\MYSQL5\BIN\MYSQL.EXE" for a "Console" object
"C:\PROGRAMS\MYSQL5\BIN\MYSQLD!L.EXE" for a "Start server" object
"C:\PROGRAMS\MYSQL5\BIN\MYSQLD!L.EXE -u root shutdown" for a "Shutdown server" object

Following is a list of prerequisites that you have to manually install in order to have the program working:

kLIBC / GCC Runtime Library
