ZEND Server broke my WIMP server (1 reply)

Hi there

I have a Windows IIS web server with PHP and mySQL running multiple Joomla websites. One of the website administrators requested that I install the ZEND framework on the server as they needed it for a component of their website. So I downloaded the windows installer and performed a full installation, which seems to have broken my web server.

After checking it out, it seems that ZEND installed its own instance of mySQL (C:\Program Files\Zend\MySQL51) and removed the existing instance (C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1). C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1 now only contains a my.ini file.

the original mysql service still registers in services.msc, but cannot start due to path not found error. Is there a way to restore the original mysql instance?

Regards
