Having some major issues... Racking my brain. Also it is worthy to
note as of 3 weeks ago i have 0 experience with MySQL.
So anyway.. HOW DO YOU DO IT?? hehe - I can get multiple services
installed and started, but everytime i try to make any edits to them
and stop/restart they wont restart. here is my exact .ini file.
===================================
# options for mysql service 1
[testdb1]
port = 3306
datadir= C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance1/Bin/data
innodb_data_home_dir= C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance1/Bin/data
innodb_data_file_path=ibdata1:10M:autoextend
innodb_log_group_home_dir=C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance1/Bin/data
innodb_log_arch_dir=C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance1/Bin/data
# options for mysql service 2
[testdb2]
port = 3308
datadir= C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance2/Bin/data
innodb_data_home_dir=C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance2/Bin/data
innodb_data_file_path=ibdata2:10M:autoextend
innodb_log_group_home_dir=C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance2/Bin/data
innodb_log_arch_dir=C:/Program Files/MysqlInstance2/Bin/data
=======================================
*This is the following command i type in to get the service installed.
C:\Documents and Settings\admin>"C:\program files\mysql\mysql server
5.0\bin\mys
qld-nt" --install testdb1(or2) --defaults-file="C:\my.ini"
One thing that bothers me is this. When i open up the Instance
Manager, and look at both installed serviecs. Under the Configuration
file it says "Section Name: mysqld". I want it to use "testdb1". It
uses mysqld for both services. I can go into Startup variables and
change them but it doesnt seem to affect anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
