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]
 max_allowed_packet = 200MB
 #
 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
 
 [mysqldump]
 max_allowed_packet = 200MB

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.
