[QUOTE="intimidatorx31, post: 748709, member: 113323"] Alrighty this is my first post/first thread here at MP. [B][U][COLOR="Black"][SIZE="5"]Problem[/SIZE][/COLOR][/U][/B]: Upon installing & configuring Media Portal TV server, setting up the database [B][U]MySQL freezes and crashes[/U][/B]. [B][U][COLOR="Black"][SIZE="5"]Solution[/SIZE][/COLOR][/U][/B]: Download and run a newer version of MySQL (current as of May 21, 2011 is MySQL ver 5.5.1) Pretty much i was strugglin to figure out why the MySQL would freeze and would not create the database. Searched on google and this forum and found things that kinda worked but didnt fully resolve my issue. After about 5 hours and some change, i believe i found an easy solution to the problem: [B]Download newest version of MySQL server[/B]. This version is 5.5.1 i believe while the one that MediaPortal automatically downloads is 5.1 (which is buggy) [B][U][COLOR="Blue"][SIZE="5"]Downloads[/SIZE][/COLOR]:[/U][/B] [LIST] [*]32 bit version here -->[url=http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=402599]MySQL :: Select a Mirror to Start Downloading - mysql-5.5.12-win32.msi[/url] [*]64 bit version here -->[url=http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=402601]MySQL :: Select a Mirror to Start Downloading - mysql-5.5.12-winx64.msi[/url] [/LIST] ----------------------------------------Scroll down to the very bottom for the mirror---------------------------------------- [B][U]Comments[/U][/B]: On the other threads ive read, they recommended that you the MySQL program via as administrator (to avoid freezing/crashing) however that worked for some and not for others.
