I installed MySQL and MyODBC on a Win2k server, got it all working fine. Created a database and tables, pulled all information through ASP files.

Just randomly MySQL stopped. I went to Services and tried to restart it... it attempts to start but fails. Event View gives no cause, just says MySql failed to start the (x) time.

Any ideas on what this could be from? Nothing has changed on the server.
 
Check you my.ini. We had it running on a 2k server in one of our offices and the my.ini reverted back to an old one for some reason. Check the data directory is correct.
