I install Mysql server in my pc to practice j2ee and after some days i uninstalled it and installed xampp for PHP development but it is showing port not free error.
I already try using cmd and deleting the mysql files in c drive but no use still my xampp is saying that MySQL Service detected with wrong path...
Error log:-
MySQL Service detected with wrong path
11:08:46 AM [mysql] Change XAMPP MySQL and Control Panel settings or
11:08:46 AM [mysql] Uninstall/disable the other service manually first
11:08:46 AM [mysql] Found Path: "C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\mysqld" --defaults-file="C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini" MySQL
11:08:46 AM [mysql] Expected Path: c:\xampp\new1\mysql\bin\mysqld.exe --defaults-file=c:\xampp\new1\mysql\bin\my.ini mysql
Make sure while editing the Registry, you put the value using quotes " " the way it was displayed in the error msg, other wise it will not work
The correct way -
"c:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysqld.exe" --defaults-file="c:\xampp\mysql\bin\my.ini" MySQL
