Is this a MySQL bug ???
After trying almost all the fixes out there I have finally almost given up. I have downloaded the latest MySQL Windows Installer and it fails to start the database server during the installation.
What I have tried-:

The MySQL installer does not give me an option to install to a place without spaces.

Tried uninsatlling and reinstalling the product with no-avail.
Tried manually installing and reinstalling the service.
Tried deleting and adding the service from MySQL Notifier. Did not work.
Tried manually starting the service by using-:
net start mysql56
Did not work.
I am getting a Windows 1067 error.
My error log file contains these suspicious messages-:
2015-02-13 23:38:20 98c InnoDB: Error: unable to create temporary file; errno: 2
2015-02-13 23:38:20 732 [ERROR] Plugin 'InnoDB' init function returned error.

I am sharing the full error log here-:

(Dont worry its nothing malicious just a harmless txt file)
Can someone tell me what the hell I am doing wrong over here ? Why isn't InnoDB starting up ?
