I have just installed the MySQL windows package.
i am trying to start MYSQL but get this error:
ERROR 2017 (HY000): Can't open named pipe to host: . pipe: mysql(2)

Here is my my.ini file:
client]

pipe
socket=mysql
host = localhost

[mysql]

default-character-set=latin1
[mysqld]

skip-networking
enable-named-pipe

socket=mysql


Any suggestions?
