Hi, 
 
You have to call Mysql from the main application while it is loading or on
demand. Autorun wont start it automatically from a thumbdrive.

tying to get your suggestion to work I have it so that it opens my app which

is the first 5 lines but I am not able to get the mysql started here is my 
autorun.inf 
 
[autorun] 
 
action=SNmain.exe 
open=/SNmain/Windows/SNmain.exe 
shellexecute=/SNmain/Windows/SNmain.exe 
shell\Auto=&SNmain.exe 
shell\Auto\command=/SNmain/Windows/SNmain.exe 
 
action=xampp_start.exe 
open=/xampp/xampp_start.exe 
shellexecute=/xampp/xampp_start.exe 
shell\Auto=&xampp_start.exe 
shell\Auto\command=/xampp/xampp_start.exe 
 
Icon=sn.ico 
shell=Auto 
label=Suspension Network

Hi Robert, 
 
you do not need U3 drive for this. Some cool things can be done with 
ordinary flashdrives. For MS Windows you use Autorun.inf like this:[autorun]

action=NAME_OF_YOUR_APP 
open=your_app.exe 
shellexecute=your_app.exe 
shell\Auto=&NAME_OF_YOUR_APP 
shell\Auto\command=your_app.exe 
Icon=your_icon.ico 
shell=Auto 
label=NAME_OF_YOUR_APP 
 
What you get is: 
1) after insertion of the flashdrive your_icon will appear instead of the 
default flashdrive icon; 
2) if autoplay on users machine is enabled it will show NAME_OF_YOUR_APP 
with your_icon as the first choice in autoplay menu and will allow to launch

your app from there; 
3) it will launch the application on doubleclicking the flash_drive's icon 
(your_icon) 
4) it will provide the first option in the context menu as NAME_OF_YOUR_APP 
(upon right mouse-click on flash-drive's icon) 
5) it WILL NOT launch your application automatically on startup, which is 
good from a security point of view... 
 
For MacOS this tool can be of some use:

I think it is more than enough for a non-U3 drive. I am also bundling my 
Contents Management Soft with Apache this way :-). 
 
All the best

I am building a rev standalone that works in conjunction with a mysql 
database, so If I bundle a install I need to also check first to see if 
apache is installed if not then install it with a mysql database, so was 
thinking that maybe this new u3 drive I can preinstall everything on it so 
then all I need to send the use is a flash drive, any thoughts as to is this

 
will be possible to run apache/mysql/rev application all within a u3 flash 
drive?
