lmao it easy as hell to run a server on windows 7 but if u thinking about useing hamachi as ur perents if u aloud to port forward or if u owner try port forward. hamachi u wont get many members i wont go on hamachi again. anyway if u get it running goodluck

[javairc]

if u use winmysqladmin my.ini auto put in your c:\windows & if u wanna try to host game server u can use hamachi or portforward.

People, catface asked - where is my.ini file when you run Wundows 7 ..... clear question isnt it??

I as well check this - runned on vista mysql etc ... and yes no my.ini inside windows folder and anywhere on whole PC

Since its really weird (didnt get into this so much but its odd already when its nowhere ) - maybe someone has any idea

Regards

You have to run winmyslqadmin first then shut it down and check again

I did a search on this issue, and most of my findings said to check the main directory where your mysql is installed.

As I use Xp I can't guarantee that this info is correct.

There is no problem in just making a my.ini and puting it into your windows folder.

The thing you have to remember with vista and windows 7 is the security.

The OS will not usually allow programs to edit/create files within the boot drives base directory (c:\) and also within the OS installed folder (c:\windows).

I never had this problem as I disabled UAC and set ADMIN to owner of windows folder, but running as admin should be fine.

i also have same problem but fixed by run as administator..
