Can you check or post x:/Parallels/Databases/MySQL/data/xxxx.err

Sounds really familiar

This type file does not have

No .err file in this directory?

Hmmm there I could see why the service won't start...

You pass INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6" parameter to mysql-5.6.26-winx64.msi explicitly, but install location is "C:\Windows\system32\rserver30".
It's a very strange...

Did you install "Radmin Server 3" on the server?

Look at mysql-5.6.26-winx64.log:

It means what mysql-5.6.26-winx64.msi detects already installed MySQL 5.6 in location 'C:\Windows\system32\rserver30\' and try to upgrade it.

You should completely uninstall MySQL 5.6 from server.
Please checks the Windows registry sub-keys of the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" key after uninstalling MySQL 5.6.

Please also checks the Windows registry sub-keys of the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" key after uninstalling MySQL 5.6.

No .err file in this directory?
yes

Did you install "Radmin Server 3" on the server?
yes

InstallLocation C:\Windows\system32\rserver30\

 

[MityaS]

I changed C:\Windows\system32\rserver30\ to C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6 in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" and MySQL was installed!!

Thank you very much for the help!

Installed again (clear Windows 2012 R2, x64), everything works if first install Plesk and after install the radmin.

Many thank for your hint because i had the same error and it was an config error at the users mysql my.ini config file.

the error i had at the .err file at the plesk user database Folder was:

[ERROR] C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\mysqld.exe: unknown variable 'table_cache=128'

solution:

- set the mysql running Folder at the my.ini back to the mysql 51 and start that service
- delete that config at the my.ini at the same Folder which was at the error file
- install mysql 56 via plesk installer again and it was working.

best regads chris
