I think I am INTP – But I think I might fluctuate more towards a leader/extrovert version. What personality type suits you?

Error:0 http://blog.woodylabs.com/2009/04/cannot-create-windows-service-for-mysql-error0/ http://blog.woodylabs.com/2009/04/cannot-create-windows-service-for-mysql-error0/#comments Wed, 01 Apr 2009 19:06:19 +0000 Woody http://blog.woodylabs.com/?p=59 If you have MySQL installed (from XAMPP or otherwise) on an xp box (this ones x64) and you update to SP2 it seems to break the mysql service – at least it did for me.  This has happened several times to me but is actually easily resolved. Firstly I tried re-installing mySQL but this brought the problem “Cannot Create Windows Service for MySQL. Error:0″ when trying to install the actual service post install.
To get over this you need to wipe the service out so MySQL can recreate it.  Make sure you have admin rights on the box and go to CMD and enter:

sc delete mysql

That should delete the service, then if your in XAMPP just restart the service from your control panel and it will pop up allowing you to add a firewall rule. If you arent using XAMPP simply reinstall mysql after uninstalling/deleting service as above.
