Thanks Peter.

This might be helpful.  Is this a localized Windows? Asking because error you  get is ERROR_INVALID_SERVICE_ACCOUNT, and the service account is NT Authority\Network Service, which is “well-known” and always there. However I recall there was some PITA with localized names for standard users mentioned in source code in other open source projects (e.g. Wix).  I was never affected since I do not run localized Windows, though now I think I should give them a try from time to time;)

I am sorry .. no luck either this time.  I executed: "C:\m>msiexec /i mariadb-5.2.5-winx64.msi /l*v log.txt"

 

It looks like it is the service creation that fails .. excerpt 

 

CAQuietExec: Running bootstrap
CAQuietExec: Removing default user
CAQuietExec: Changing root password
CAQuietExec: Creating my.ini file
CAQuietExec: Registering service
CAQuietExec: FATAL ERROR: CreateService failed (1057)
CAQuietExec: Error 0x80070001: Command line returned an error.
CAQuietExec: Error 0x80070001: CAQuietExec Failed
CustomAction CreateDatabase returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)

 

(full installation log attached).

 

I specified service name 'maria52' and no such service exist. Port specified is 3310 what is not in use. Selected default path for installation. I am administrator user of course and UAC is disabled.

This could be a bug I found and fixed  yesterday evening.  It turns out I did an superfluous LocalFree() in mysql_install_db.exe. Interestingly, it has crashed rather seldom, it was the first time I have seen it.

 

Fixed here : http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~maria-captains/maria/5.2-windows-packaging-upgrade/revision/2929 .

I updated msi installers after the fix  here http://cid-ff0c950417b4f8a4.office.live.com/browse.aspx/share . I would appreciate if you could give new MSI’s  a try . Make sure to uninstall what you currently have prior to this experiment .

 

To trace what is happening in installation, a log file can be helpful. To get a log,  issue  

msiexec /i mariadb-5.2.5-win32.msi /l*v log.txt

 

on the command line. This will launch setup and write  some interesting (and lots of uninteresting) info into log.txt. If an executable launched by MSI crashes  (I presumably it was the case here), the information would be sparse,  but at least one would know at what step installation did a rollback, which exe has crashed and what it has written to output prior to crash.

sorry .. it was 32 bit installer!

hmmm .. installer rolls back.  Why?

 

64 bit build on 64 bit Win7 (UAC disabled). Default file path.  No conflicts with ports or service name specified.  After rollback there is no track left.

Not sure I'm correct person  to start discussions over the of GPL, I think I'm not qualified.

I do know there is a plenty of established open source projects that use MFC, including GPLv2, such as different incarnations of
Tortoise (SVN,CVS, BZR, HG).

>From my point of view,  it is just a  system library. It came bundled with compiler, just like other library CRT which is non-GPL
that we use extensively for quite important functionality like strcpy() or say fopen().  Maybe this explanation will satisfy GPL
purists. I do not think CRT , MFC , ATL (libraries that come bundled with Visual Studio) have any written license, at least I have
never seen one. The source code is available, and installed together with Visual Studio.  If  one needs to redistribute one of this
libraries  as DLLs, there is Microsoft EULA that basically allows inclusion into any software . But we do not even do that, as we
link Visual Studio libraries (CRT, and also MFC now) statically, MySQL-ish way.
