1067 error on attempt to start MySQL

Question

I\'ve installed MySQL on Windows 7. When I\'m trying to start MySQL service I\'m getting error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly. Log message:

101111         


        

Answer 1

I have mysql data folder replaced by a windows directory junction. I suspect ib_logfile0/1 and/or ibdata1 is corrupted.

Just try to delete those files and computername.err. Then restart mysql service. That's what I did, with success.

Copying ibdata1 files, after a full reinstallation of mysql, to the junction dir and replacing dir by the junction, restarting mysql, was not enough.

You have to let mysql rebuild those files.
