If they are, it asks to remove the previous installation first and aborts. (that is: upgrades are not supported in step#1) - Generates appropriate my.cnf file - Sets up SQL user with specified password - Adds start menu items - to start the server manually (with --console) - to start mysql client - to edit the my.cnf file. - Registers MariaDB to start as a service with the specified parameters. - Registers MariaDB as installed software, sets up uninstaller. (TODO: should the uninstaller the datadir or leave it? (or ask the user?)) - Creates installation log, and in case of any failures presents the log to the user and requests to file it as a bug (How far we should go here depends on how complex and error-prone the final installation procedure will be). 1.2 Step 2: Upgrades from MySQL or MariaDB ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Same as above but with handling of the case where MySQL has been already installed: - offer to replace MySQL. - upgrade the data directory (todo we should sort out if anything/what is needed for this). - Uninstall MySQL - Install MariaDB. 1.3 Step 3: Configuration wizard ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Installer should include configuration wizard that's similar to what MySQL installer does. TODO come up with options 1.4 Items not on the wishlist ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a list of things that one might want an installer to do but that are out of scope of this WL entry: * Calibration of my.cnf parameters based on available memory, number of CPUs, etc. 2. Installer wishlist (developer POV) ------------------------------------- * Some "installshield-like" tool that's easy to use (suggestion by Webyog: NSIS) * Installation procedure source should reside in MariaDB source repository * Installation procedure source file is better to be in human-readable text format. * It should be possible to automate creation of the installer package, in a way that can be run from buildbot (e.g. the installer package build process should print messages to its stdout) * Any suggestions on how can one automatically test the installation package? (for example, we'll want to start the installer, install, check that installation succeeded, then start the server, run some commands, then uninstall. Any ways to achieve that?) 3.

(for example, we'll want to start the installer, install, check that installation succeeded, then start the server, run some commands, then uninstall. Any ways to achieve that?) 3.

Tell the user to reboot the computer after installation. I found sometimes after a fresh install of mysql on windows it doesnt say that but the server behaves erratic until the time one has to restart the computer. It would be very nice to get more information about the above. I have never seen the above problem and don't know of any reason why a reboot would help. Can you explain the 'erratic' behavior ? Regards, Monty Hi Monty, It happens at times when mysql 5.x is installed on windows and the user set up lets say "root" and the wizard finishes. I have encountered several times that the mysql server is inaccessible using the user that was set (in this case "root" )until a reboot is done then everything works fine. I havent encountered this on windows vista its only windows xp. Regards, Steve
