I don't understand why this topic (for MySQL 5.6.29) was closed. I just installed 5.6.30 Community Edition using the msi file and it repeated the error. I did not change my registry keys prior to the install. The installer did NOT give me a choice of where to install the server and other elements of MySQL.

To "fix" the error, I moved all the folders to c:\MySQL, used "sc delete MySQL" to delete the bad service location and used "mysqld --install MySQL --default-file=E:/mysqlDBS/my.ini" (from inside the server's folder) and it worked. But users should not have to fiddle with the registry or move the folders to get a good install!

Regards,
DocDJ
