如何在Windows 7中安装和配置mysql 5.6.16

The installer installs the following software in your computer
a.) MySQL Server
b.) MySQL Connectors
c.) MySQL Workbench and sample
models
d.) MySQL for Excel
e.) MySQL Notifier
f.) MySQL for Visual
Studio
g.) Sample Databases
h.) Documentation

1. Download the installer here : 07001

2. There are two options available: (as on 31 Jan 2014,the latest version is 5.6.16)

   (i) mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.16.0.msi – 1.5MB

   (ii) mysql-installer-community-5.6.16.0.msi – 250.8MB

3. I personally prefer the 2nd option. This helps me to keep the .msi file as backup in my computer. I can install MySQL whenever I need to
   even if I am offline.

4. After downloading the 250 MB file,double click it to start the installation process. Now it is simple as installing any software on
   windows 7.

5. Once you are done with the installation download the official document

   icon and select “start” the server option.

7. Click the “MySQL Workbench” in the programs menu. Start creating databases/schemas/tables/SQL scripts.
