Introduction Step by step installation process to install MySQL 5.6 (fresh installation) on Windows 64bit

Virtual Machine

This applies to Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 64bit Editions, in fact there should not

any problem on Windows 2012 Edition. That means either of the OS is installed already

The OS/VM connects to the internet and you do not have to do a full Windows Update of

your OS/VM to test

MySQL Workbench ZIP Install is used (Not going for a full blown installation meeting the

requirements of Visual Studio installation etc)

Bare minimum screenshots are used that means just the required part to keep going

Virtual Machine Setup

Oracle Virtual Box Version

Only Guest Additions installed on the system initially

The only Windows update was IE

The following software should to be downloaded. So, you do not have to go for a full Windows

Update of your OS/VM which does a lot of download

Download the below software (64bit) :

The Microsoft.NET 3.5 offline installer (although .NET 4 is required, it does need .NET 3.5first)

https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=25150

The Microsoft.NET 4 Client full (offline Installer)


Microsoft VC++2013 Redistributable


Do not forget to select "vcredist_x64.exe" , for it is a "x64" installation

The above ones were installed and that can be verified once a reboot of VM is done

The above installation were done in this manner :

The Microsoft.NET 3.5 offline installation
https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=25150https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=25150https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=17718https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=17718https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40784https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40784https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40784https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=17718https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=25150

The Microsoft.NET 4 offline installation

The next one is redistributable VC++2013 as mentioned on MySQL documentation, but we

will see that the MySQL installer will download VC++2010

Start the MySQL Installer now and there should not be any errors

The following screenshots below are step by step process

Click "Next" when the above Requirements screen pops up, followed by "execute"

With the "execute" the internet connection allows the installer to download the VS Tools

Accept the license

Press "Execute", we would see only Workbench gets failed, but with Workbench ZIP we can

get that, which is shown in the next screens

In my case it was 6.3.6, but both works fine

Create a directory to extract this ZIP to a specified directory to be on safe side

Once extracted, you can verify the files and move the extracted directory to place under

"C:\" if you like


13/15

Create a desktop short cut by right clicking on it

Double click to open it and right click on the connection to verify that the settings are fine

Enter the password and save it in vault

MySQL-Workbench Performance Tab

This is a new section available from MySQL 5.6 onwards


15/15

Once the installation is completed you can verify what were installed. You can see here that

VC++ 2010 was installed by the installer. We did not manually install that

That's all ! you get a working MySQL-Workbench too to play around !
