Click start mysql button and it gives me an error: “XAMPP – Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly”. I tried restarting the XAMPP server, but it still doesn’t work.
Solution:
1. Click “Explorer” on XAMPP Control Panel
then open the “mysql” folder
2. Rename the “data” folder as “data_bk” (or anything you like )
3. Create a new data folder
4. Copy all the files from backup folder to data folder, which is created before
5. copy data folder(for me is cu****) and “ibdata1″from mysql/data_bk
6. Paste the files we copy before to mysql/data
7. restart the XAMPP server
One thing to note is that: if we got “Error establishing a database connection” when entrance localhost/your site name
Create a new DB user with the same user info as in the wp-config.php file
the wp-cofig.php located in xampp/htdocs/your site name
