MySQL Troubleshooting – XAMPP MySQL Server Issues

MySQL

MySQL in XAMPP isn't starting after I installed MySQL Server.
MySQL Server is using port 3306, so I've changed in xampp\mysql\bin\my.ini:

[client] 
port            = 3360
socket          = "C:/xampp/mysql/mysql.sock"

[mysqld]
port= 3360

And in xampp\php\php.ini:

mysqli.default_port=3360
mysql.default_port=3360

Also in XAMPP Control Panel -> Config -> Service and Port Settings -> MySQL changed Main Port to 3360.

After all these changes it still isn't working.

Nestat is showing 3306 is used by mysqld.exe, so I think XAMPP MySQL should work correctly on 3360.

Also I've tried to switch off MySQL server, didn't help to.

Error:

Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly

i suspect this

2017-11-24 17:08:48 9368 [ERROR] Unknown/unsupported storage engine: InnoDB

is the problem.

Try deleting

ib_logfile0 and ib_logfile1 from your MySQL directory
