Hi Lokesh,

Sorry for the delay.

Below are the official link for MySQL Server in MAC:

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-osx-excerpt/5.5/en/osx-installation-pkg.html

Please try the above link and let me know if this works for you or not.

Thanks.


My computer uses Windows 10. This is not a Mac computer. Can you please resolve the issue?


I still have not received a response. I need to fix this and then do my class assignments.


Hi Lokesh,

Sometimes, there are some files which remains in the PC even after unistallation, Please completely remove the MySQL Server first:

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/windows-installer-uninstalling.html

Re-start the PC and re-install the MySQL server:

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/windows-installation.html

Hope this help.

If this doesn't work for you, we can connect remotely and fix the issue.

Thanks.

 


I am still getting the same error. In some forum, people who had this issue with mysql 5.7.19 recommended 5.6, which installs with no issues so I will try to install mysql 5.6 now. 



I installed mysql 5.6.37 successfully. version 5.7 has soome known bugs so installation are common in this.
