Hi Jeff,

I just experienced the same error when installing MySQL. Problem seems to be because a previous service exists that may use a different path to the winmysqladmin.exe. ( I had a previous installation htat used the c:\mysql\bin path).

To sort out the problem I ran the winmysqladmin.exe from Windows Explorer. I right clicked on the MySQL traffic light icon in the tray bottom right, selected Win NT and Stop the Service. I then selected the install wizard back button and re-executed the wizard.

Hope this helps,

Regards and Merry Christmas

John Stewart
