How to Install MySQL Database Server on Windows

Run the MSI file and use the following settings

   1. Typical Setup

   2. Skip Sign-Up

   3. make sure "Configure the mySQL Server now" is checked.

   4. "Detailed Configuration"

   5. "Developer Machine"

   6. "Multifunctional Database"

   7. "InnoDB Tablespace Settings" - leave everything default

   8. "Decision Support (DSS)/OLAP"

   9. Make sure "Enable TCP/IP Networking" is checked and leave the port number at 3306 (at this point, if you have a firewall, it will usually try to access itself on the localhost)

  10. "Standard Character Set"

  11. check "Install As Windows Service"

  12. I recommend leaving "Include Bin Directory in Windows PATH" checked

  13. enter your root password

  14. then hit "execute" and it´ll install and set it up.
