Installing MySQL on Windows

[Ralph DiMola]

I was going to suggest that. On-Rev(LiveCode Hosting) started using MariaDB a while back. I had no compatibility issues with existing DBs.

Couldn't you use MariaDB Server instead? As far as i know it is MySQL compatible.
MariaDB Server is available as .msi Installer.

Now I am trying to install mySQL server 64 bit on a new server, but it seems there is no installer! Instructions tell my to run some console commands. Is that the only way to do it?? I don’t remember jumping through all those hoops before, but it was many years ago.
