Can't Use Installer #364

Closed JohnnyErnest closed 7 years ago

JohnnyErnest commented 7 years ago

I downloaded the latest MySQL (5.7) because the OSA installer couldn't proceed without it. When I set up MySQL I chose a different service name than the default (I chose MySQLService rather than MySQL57) and when I try to run the OSA installer it says that MySQL MUST be installed before proceeding. The service is running though and I can connect to it through MySQL Workbench. I'm on Windows 10 Enterprise.

During the Installation of OSA, you should have been prompted for the MYSQLService password. Did you enter what you changed it to?

That wasn't the issue it turned out. The issue was because I renamed the service to MySQLService from MySQL57 before I ran the installer, and the installer script is looking for those hard coded strings. I changed it back and the installer ran fine, you can go ahead and close the issue. I think coding to find a specific instance of a MySQL service would prove a little more cumbersome with little payoff than just maybe putting a blurb in the install docs that it needs to be named to spec.
