install mysql problems


hi

I have windowsXP and have downloaded the relevant copy of MySql. I run the
setup and mysql is placed on c:\mysql.....OK so far.
I am trying to follow the manual on mysql website but I am struggling.

I run the following command below and the console appears with InnoDB
commands
c:\mysql\bin\my sqld --console

I run the above and it seems to hang the console. After the line with socket
and port it just hangs????????? I cant type on the console and there is
no prompt

I knew this sql manual looked complicated to do but I dont know what to do
from here...I just want mysql to run so I can load databases But I cant
start the server

anyone help.

>Description: I've recently compiled mysql 4.0.14 on redhat 8.0. The installation fails, however, when running mysql_install_db. I've attached a transcript below. I gather from searching the 'net that this isn't an entirely unusual thing to happen, and is likely the result of some misconfiguration on my part, or perhaps a version incompatability with my libc. Unfortunately, I haven't seen any concrete suggestions on how to get past it.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
