MySQL 4.020c (Windows) service startup error

[jmlynn]

Help!

I installed MySQL 4.0.20C and it works if I started it with
mysqld --console

However, if I do the following:
mysqld --install

net start MySQL

I got the following error:

D:\mysql>net start MySQL
The MySQL service is starting.
The MySQL service could not be started.

A system error has occurred.

System error 1067 has occurred.

The process terminated unexpectedly.
Does anyone know what I have don't wrong? I was using Windows XP on my
notebook with latest security patches applied.

I have a similar problem to this, and I installed 4.0.20D

I could install the service succesfully with mysqld --install. When I
started the service I got a message saying "The MySQL service was started
succesfully" but a second later it died. Windows popped up with the usual
message "mysqld has encountered a problem and needs to
close....blah....blah". The details of that error is as follows:

================================================
szAppName : mysqld.exe szAppVer : 0.0.0.0 szModName : unknown
szModVer : 0.0.0.0 offset : 00000000
================================================

Similar thing happened when I tried to do mysqld --console. I got the
"mysqld has encountered......blah" with the following details in the error
message:

================================================
AppName: mysqld.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: mysqld.exe
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00257865
================================================

Does anyone have any idea what this means?

Cheers,
Dany.

I'm having a similar problem. Here's what I get when --install and then use
mysqld --console:

C:\mysql\bin>mysqld --install
Service successfully installed.

C:\mysql\bin>mysqld --console
040703 11:09:54 InnoDB: Started
mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: '4.0.20a-debug' socket: '' port: 0
040703 11:09:54 mysqld: Got error 10022 from select

I've uninstalled and reinstalled I don't know how many times. Sometimes the
--console command gets more lines, but they always end about the same. I can't
get anything to work beyond the initial --install (and --remove) arguments.
