I'm trying to install XAMPP and have run into the following errors when I try to start MySQL


5:16:18 PM [mysql] Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly.
5:16:18 PM [mysql] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
5:16:18 PM [mysql] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
5:16:18 PM [mysql] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
5:16:18 PM [mysql] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
5:16:18 PM [mysql] If you need more help, copy and post this
5:16:18 PM [mysql] entire log window on the forums
 
In my case, I did two things:
  1. moved xampp/mysql/backup files into xampp/mysql/data
  2. RUN XAMPP as Administrator
It worked for me :)

Hiyah,

I've run into the same problem as the aaalston. I'm a complete beginner when it comes to this sought of stuff. How do I go about moving xampp from one location to another and how do I RUN XAMPP as Administrator? Thanks.
