Hi! Actually on Windows there is NO crutial difference in MySQL configuration. It starts slightly different, that's it. 1. You can start it as a windows service like this net start MySQL stop net stop MySQL 2. Manual start like this mysql\bin\mysqld.exe --standalone --console stop like this mysql\bin\mysqladmin.exe -u root -p<root password> shutdown Config files should be almost the same. Just consult MySQL manuals for details. I used to play with it on Windows long ago and didn't have much trouble to set it up. Just be sure, that all paths are set correctly and MySQL "eats" right config file at startup. Thus if your XWiki data would be relatively small sized AND you don't want to play with multiwiki environment, - better use standalone distribution with HSQLDB.

Hi, i have a problem with deinstalling MySQL completly from my notebook.

I have the xwiki running on my normal pc, but i also want to work on it on the notebook. But after watching a lot of forums about that i can't configure the MySQL server. So i thought about asking here because i just only know one way of getting through it --> completly new windows installation.

Have someone any idea how to get it with MySQL or is it easier with Postgre or Xampp?

It is not so easy to install xwiki because there is only a tutorial for debian users and not for windows... I hope someone can help me...

Thanks

As Dmitry suggested, you can use the jetty/hsqldb package for which we provide a Windows installer so that can hardly be simpler. That's the default package when you go to http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download from Windows system I think. Since you plan to use it on your notebook I guess you don't need to support an important load or too many content. On Mon, Mar 26, 2012 at 4:26 PM, Alex <alex_web@gmx.de> wrote:

Hi ,

the configuration is clear to me, i only have the problem that ther are some files left on my computer so that the mysql configurating wants a password, but i dont have one. Maybe its a password i made many years ago but also after deleting everything with the word MySql, the problem is still there.

I will watch the manual and first try to clear my whole pc from SQL and hope that works. Otherwise i use Postgre oder something else.

Thanks Dmitry

Alex

Hi Thomas,

ive installed the jetty/hsqldb on my notebook. It is much more easier than trying to config mysql and apache and to put the war file in it.

So what do i have to do if i want to upload the wiki to a server in order to make it goes online?

Then it depends what is this server but generally it mean installing it the war way on the server. The jetty/hsqldb distributions are mostly here for personal or test purpose.

Thanks Thomas!
