mysql is not recognised as an internal or external command,operable program or batch

Question

I had set the MySQL path, but still getting the same error. Please let me know whether I followed the correct one or not.

MySQL location is: C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 5.0in

In Windows, system variables I had set the path as:

• variable name: MYSQL_HOME
• variable value: C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 5.0in

For PATH setting:

• variable name: PATH
• variable value: .;%JAVA_HOME%in;%MYSQL_HOME%in...

If it is not the correct one, please let me know the correct path and its settings.

Answer 1

Simply type in command prompt :

set path=%PATH%;D:xamppmysqlin;

Here my path started from D so I used D: , you can use C: or E:
