installation error.

[Roccoh]

On starting mysql-daemon with mysqld, the cursor does not jump back to the prompt. May be it's better to deinstall and reinstall, or there is another chance to repair the installation?
There is a message in phpmyadmin:
"Undefined index: Type in c:\web\apache\htdocs\phpmyadmin251\tbl_properties_ table_info.php on line 16"

The prompt will be redisplayed if the server shut down. mysqld is not intended to be an interactive program. Nor is mysqld that start process, it is the main server program. It is not hanging, it is just running. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
