I am following the no-install instructions for cluster, and I have setup all my folders, my.ini & config.ini files.
However, what I assumed was the no-install version that I downloaded (900MB) probably wasn't correct.
I went to
https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/cluster/ to find the version, but none of them showed the "no-install" part in the name as per the MySQL instructions, and I landed up downloading the file mysql-cluster-gpl-7.5.8-winx64.zip instead.
After extracting and copying the various files to the management and data nodes, I then attempted to start the management server, and got the error message as follows:
C:\mysql\bin>ndb_mgmd
MySQL Cluster Management Server mysql-5.7.20 ndb-7.5.8
2017-11-15 08:54:48 [MgmtSrvr] INFO -- The default config directory 'C:/Prog
ram Files/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.7/mysql-cluster' does not exist. Trying to create
it...

m Files/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.7/mysql-cluster'. Either create it manually or spec
ify a different directory with --configdir=<path>
This is what leads me to believe that I don't have the correct download.
So where do I find this no-install version?
Thank you
