If any of those steps fails, refer to the Windows XP installation guide

File Validation

• Verify that the following files are located in C:\Windows\System32:

  iconv.dll
  libxml2.dll
  zlib1.dll

Software installation

• Verify that the following software is installed on the host:

 MySQL 5.0
 Ruby 1.8.6
 WinPCAP 4.0

Mongrel Installation

• execute the following command:

 gem list --local

Result should contain:

 mongrel (1.1.5)
     A small fast HTTP library and server that runs Rails, Camping, Nitro
     and Iowa apps.

MySQL Configuration

• Verify MySQL config file:

 C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini

Example, there should be a log-bin and server-id under mysqld:

 [mysqld]
 port=3306
 basedir="C:/Program Files/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.1/"
 datadir="C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.1/Data/"
 default-character-set=latin1
 default-storage-engine=INNODB
 # Enable mysql database replication
 log-bin
 server-id=[UniqueId]
 #
 sql-mode="STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION"
 max_connections=100
 
 # section [mysqld_safe]
 table_cache=256
 tmp_table_size=18M
 thread_cache_size=8

Note: server-id value may vary, but server-id needs to be a non-zero value and unique when using more than one host.

• Verify the state of the MySQL service in Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services

• If you are using McAfee Antivirus, make sure that the On Access Scan is disabled.
