| This is my problem:
After I start apache and MySQL, mysqld.exe runs for a few seconds and then
shuts down automatically. It worked perfectly a few hours ago and now it
suddenly doesn't. I've tried reinstalling, upgrading, nothing works. What is
going on here?
Note: only reply if you have a useful answer. I've had my share of problems
with apache/php/mysql and I'm tired of getting replies like 'try google'.
Yes, I've tried Google and I have not found a solution to my problem.

Read the error log ($hostname.err in the parent directory of the
databases). It might tell you something useful, like the server
aborted (and why), that tables are corrupt, that there's a syntax
error in a config file, etc.
What happened between "a few hours ago" and now? Perhaps some of
the MyISAM tables need cleaning with myisamchk if the server was
not shut down cleanly.

There a couple of things which you can check:
* Resources: Open the Processes tab of the task manager interface and see
what happens when you start MySQL
* Check your system for virusses/spyware
* Do you run mysql as a service? If not, try that. See:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/W...rt_service.html
* When mysql is already installed as a service, check the logs
* The obvious (always solves many strange behaviours in Windows): Restart
your system
