Default Installation Error

When I start eqemu-install.bat with admin priveliges it just cuts out without any error messages or anything. When I manually download and run the eqemu-server-installer I get an installation error. "mysqladmin.exe ping -h127.0.0.0 -p3306 -ueqemu -peqemu is running when I get: failed to validate MySQL connection: could not connect to MySQL: exec: "mysqladmin.exe": executable file not found in %PATH%.

What do I need to do to fix this?

Just for some further information, I am running it on Windows 10 Pro which is fully updated, 32 gig ram. Hard drive space is at 4tb.

I have also attempted to download and install mariadb before doing the server install, but that also errored out. So, right now, I am at a loss as to what to do to get this installed.

I manually edited my path statement and added C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.0\bin to my path statement and the problem still persists.

I'm currently having the same problem as you and don't know how to fix it.

The problem is that during installation, I input Y when it asked if you wanted to use a current database program. Since the database wasn't installed you have to input N. My mistake is that I that I thought the y was a default and hit it. What you need to do is make sure that mariadb is uninstalled, if it somehow got installed and start over.
