Windows Installation
Installing MySQL
As I mentioned above, MySQL may be downloaded free of charge. Simply proceed
to http://www.mysql.com/downloads/ and choose the recommended stable release
(as of this writing, it is MySQL 3.23). On the MySQL 3.23 download page, under
the heading of Windows downloads, click the Download link next to the latest version
of MySQL (3.23.54 as of this writing). After downloading the file (it's about
13MB as of this writing), unzip it and run the setup.exe program contained
therein.
Once installed, MySQL is ready to roll (barring a couple of configuration tasks
that we'll look at shortly), except for one minor issue that only affects you if
you're running Windows NT, 2000, XP, or .NET Server. If you use any of those
operating systems, find a file called my-small.cnf in the directory to which you
just installed MySQL. Copy it to the root of your C: drive and rename it to
my.cnf. See the following sidebar if you have any trouble working with .cnf files
on your Windows system.
1From this point forward, I'll refer to all Unix-style platforms supported by PHP and MySQL, such
as Linux, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X, with the collective name 'Unix'.
