We were aware that an older version of the 10.0.16 MSI installer for Windows inadvertently removed the maria service. I believe the MSI installer that is now available for download does not have this problem. For anyone else who is experiencing this issue, Elena has posted a fix in the comments of the JIRA issue: https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/MDEV-7531 > But now I see that the 'maria55' service is also gone from the system.

Maybe a variant of Elena's fix will get these other services back for you? e.g. (make sure the paths match yours): "C:\Program Files\MariaDB 5.5\bin\mysqld.exe" --install maria55 "--defaults-file=C:\Program Files\MariaDB 5.5\data\my.ini" "C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.1\bin\mysqld.exe" --install maria10_1 "--defaults-file=C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.1\data\my.ini" Thanks, Geoff _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-discuss Post to : maria-discuss@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
