Maria DB

[joshuatree44]

It is just that simple to do. It is so less on my system. I looked at my task manager and it is way way down now. It is amazing that there is something that does the same work but with half the footprint.

Welcome to the something something dark side Vanlen 

I'm running the 32 bit one and it's been up solidly now for over 2 days.....

How Strange  Maria DB fails to make new session on my pc  as did mysql  but userver did work but  to slow

Makes a new session? What do you mean by session? When you install it, it will start right up. Just make sure you have mysql disabled in services. It is not that hard to setup. Disabled it in services.msc and then went and installed MariahDB. It walked me through everything and setup root and everything. Then I went over to the DB manager that comes with radiodj and just imported my backup DB in. And off i went with the uninstall of MySQL. simple and easy as that. I restarted after everything and made sure everything was happy. Working like a champ now and stable as crap.

You've missed something somewhere. If you read the tutorial  it does say to remove MySQL as a service before you try and install MariaDB. Otherwise it will cause you headaches....

Ok John, when I installed Maria DB on my 32bit Windows 7 machine I completely uninstalled MySQL before attempting to install Maria.  When I got to the part to name the database, I opted to name it RadioDj170, and the setup accepted the change fine.  Setup completed without a hitch.  When I went to Database setup in Radio DJ, I made sure all of the information was correct including the database name was RadioDj170.  I clicked on VALIDATE and it gave me the same message. Unable to connect.  After about 15 minutes of scratching my head I thought What the Heck.  I changed the Database name from RadioDj170 to MySQL and clicked Validate and everything fired up.  Running now with no problems.  I don't know why MariaDB didn't accept the name change.

I hope this will help.

Your name change is odd. It took mine no problem. I could help you guys with teamviewer or something. I think your missing a step some place. This is not that hard. Suffolk PM me your contact information, like Skype and the like. I can help you with what I can.

do you need mysql or do you need Maria? I am willing to take a look or watch what you do in skype. Either way if you want Maria we can get you up and running. This program is very quick and painless. I would suggest if people are having issues with this and cant get it to work with the steps we have outlined here then stick with what works. Maria is not for everyone if it can not get it to work.

http://superuser.com/questions/452262/how-to-remove-mysql-service-from-windows I think this should be listed for help as well since most times it will not delete the service. This is how you can make it go bye bye. Also I learned with helping here that if you are using a different port than 3306 make sure you note it in the database setup utility for rdj to 127.0.0.1:3309 or what ever the port number is. It is all pretty easy once you do it. I am using the alpha setup since it seems a bit faster than the 10.0 version. But to each their own. If you need help PM and I will see what I can do.
