I started the installation of TV Engine 3 using the online documentation, however I faced a problem in the very beginning: When I try to install the MySQL gui package i have this error message:
Error 1335. The cabinet file 'product.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package.
I tried to install the version that linked in the MP online docu (mysql-gui-tools-5.0-r9a-win32.msi), and the latest downloaded from MySQL site (mysql-gui-tools-5.0-r12-win32.msi). Both packakes produce the same error message.

- Is this gui mandatory to have TV Engine?
- If yes, how could I step over this problem? I guess there is a conflict with other software installed on my machine, but I don't have a glue which could it be. I disabled the Zone Alarm firewall, but no sucsess. Other softwares installed on my machine: AVG free antivirus, Hauppauge WinTV2000, iMON remote controller, WinXP hotfixes until september 2007, K-lite codec pack, Haali media splitter, Jet Audio VX.

Thanks for your help in advance,
Peter.

why don't you just use sql express 2005 sp2? It is easier to configure.

Hello DesertDog,

I would recommend you to download the zipped version of the MySQL GUI tools here. You don't need to install them at all, just unzip and they will run out-of-the-box. I just successfully tested this version.

If you keep having trouble with this software you could also try Navicat MySQL.

No.
