View Full Version : mySQL will not auto-start after reboot

I just reinstalled to a new server and installed mySQL to D:\mysql. I even made the c:\my.cfg file to read:

[mysqld]
basedir=D:/mysql
datadir=D:/mysql/data

but something is wrong enough where the mySQL service will not start unless I manually start it from a command prompt. Also, a MySQL service has been added to the services list but on attempting to Start it, I get:

Could not start the MySql service on Local Computer
Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly

And I can not find any error logs.

Anyone have a similar problem?

you should have an error log *.err at D:/mysql/data

also check windows logs... not sure which version of windows you're using but for winxp event viewer might shed some light too
