1) First unpack the zip package file. The directory is as follows.
2) Configure Environment variables
My Computer, properties, advanced environment variables
Select Path, after which you add: the path to your MySQL Bin folder (for example: F:\mysql\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\bin)
3) After configuring the environment variables do not be busy to start MySQL, we also need to modify the configuration file (if not configured, then when the start of the error will appear in the diagram!)! : Error 2 system cannot find file), mysql-5.6.1x default configuration file is F:\mysql\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\my-default.ini
In which the configuration () is modified or added:
[Mysqld]
basedir=f:\mysql\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\mysql-5.6.21-winx64 (MySQL directory)
Datadir=f:\mysql\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\data (MySQL directory \data)
After modification
4) Run CMD as administrator (be sure to run as administrator, or not have enough permissions),
Input: CD F:\mysql\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\mysql-5.6.21-winx64\bin folder (regardless of whether you have configured the environment variable, also to enter the Bin folder, or after the start of the service will still report error 2)
Enter Mysqld-install (if run without administrator, there will be an error due to insufficient permissions: Install/remove of the Service denied!)
5)
After the installation is successful, start the service, continue to enter in cmd: net start MySQL (), the service started successfully!
At this time many people will appear error, please see note:
Note: Error 2 and error 1067 often occur at this time.
If the "Error 2 system cannot find a file", check whether the configuration file has been modified or whether to enter the bin directory, if the configuration file is correct and enter the Bin folder, you need to remove MySQL (input mysqld-remove) and then reinstall (Input mysqld- Install);
If error 1067 occurs, it is a configuration file modification error, verify that the configuration file is correct.
6) After the service started successfully, you can login, enter mysql-u root-p (no password for the first login, directly press ENTER), login success!
