MYSQL INSTALLER 1.

4
--------------------

1.4.33 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Removed from the manifest all products and series of products that are no longer
supported or under
development.
* Improved the loading of MySQL plugins by executing the SQL scripts provided with
the server and executing the
INSTALL command instead of loading the plugin via the configuration file when
necessary.
* Fixed an issue where the installation of Connector/Python prevented the
installation of other products.
* Fixed an issue in the CLI where providing a port number other than the default
resulted in a configuration
error.
* Fixed a bug in the CLI where the configuration options were parsed incorrectly
and resulted in a null
argument exception.
* Fixed a bug that reverted the failed icon to a success icon even when a
configuration failed. This was a
purely cosmetic issue, the configuration in question would complete successfully.
* Fixed a typo in the Check Requirements pop up window.

1.4.32 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Modified the product-remove process to show a status of "Completed (with errors)"
whenever a product uninstall
was completed, but a non-mandatory step failed to execute successfully. The label
displayed on the bottom of
the page also alludes to this and recommends reviewing the log because manual
intervention may be required.
* Fixed a bug in the Router configuration page where the connection test failed to
determine that MySQL Server
is a seed instance within an InnoDB cluster. This prevented the bootstrap process
from being executed.
* During a server InnoDB cluster configuration, increased the timeout seconds prior
to raising an error when
attempting to prepare MySQL Server for InnoDB cluster usage.
* Fixed a bug where the green check mark and the error icon would overlap when
creating a custom user account
during a MySQL Server with windows service configuration.
* Fixed a bug where pre-requisite check version limits were not being inclusive.
* Updated the Windows Server configuration page to also validate the service name.
* During a product upgrade, the user can click the CHANGES link to open the
official documentation detailing the
changes made to a specific version. The links for multiple products were
incorrect and have since been fixed.
* Improved pre-requisite checks by allowing MySQL Installer to also evaluate
relevant rules when selecting which
products to install. Previously, rules were only being evaluated when first
launching the application.
* Fixed a couple of grammar errors in the Check Requirements wizard page.
* Fixed a bug where in certain scenarios the Finish button was not enabled after
uninstalling a product.
1.4.31 Bugs Fixed / Improvements
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Modified the product remove process to now display a list of steps to be executed
similar to the current
configuration process.
* Modified the product reconfiguration and remove process to display a wizard page
requesting user input for
removing the data directory, removing a sandbox InnoDB cluster, or performing an
action on a production InnoDB
cluster based on the current server configuration type. These changes remove the
need for popup messages in
those cases.
* Updated the product remove process to indicate on which MySQL Server version an
action such as removing the
data directory is being taken. Previously, the popup message failed to indicate
the affected server version.
* Updated the product remove process to log pre-remove and post-remove actions
taken when uninstalling a product.
* MySQL Installer now warns users when they attempt to install or upgrade to a
product version that is
incompatible with a locally installed, or selected for installation, MySQL Server
version.
* The License Agreement wizard page is no longer displayed when first opening MySQL
Installer, instead it is
now available in the About page. The About page now contains three sections: the
About MySQL, License and
Resources Links section.
* Improved the failure message used when configuring MySQL Server as a service and
the specified user didn't have
the required permissions to start the service.
* Updated the description for the myisam_sort_buffer_size server system variable in
all .ini templates.
* Fixed a bug where verifying the root user password after an upgrade would take
very long to complete.
* Fixed a bug where filtering for products using the Current GA maturity level
returned incorrect results.
* Fixed a bug where the user could change the Server ID when reconfiguring a MySQL
Server instance previously
configured as part of a production InnoDB cluster. The Server ID can no longer be
updated since this is
currently not supported.
* Fixed a bug where the Reconfigure button was not visible after cancelling a
reconfiguration process.
* Fixed a bug where an OperationCancelledException was being raised when attempting
to reconfigure or remove a
product after cancelling a reconfiguration process.
* Fixed a bug related to uninstalling MySQL Installer in which no Cancel button was
provided in the confirmation
dialog. In addition, pressing the Esc key also triggered MySQL Installer to
uninstall.
* Fixed a bug where the Uploads directory for a MySQL Server configuration would
always be created in the default
installation location even when the user specified a custom location.
* Fixed a bug where the configuration of MySQL Router would allow to proceed even
if the connection details were
incorrect.
1.4.30 Bugs Fixed / Improvements
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Display of validation errors and warnings has been standardized among all
configuration pages.
* Added the Resources Links section to the About Page, providing helpful
information for users.
* Removed support for configuring the X Plugin in pre-GA versions of MySQL Server
8.0.
* Eliminated the possibility of adding the local instance to an InnoDB cluster
residing on the same machine.
* Added a validation to the host name field that prevents users from advancing to
the next page if the server
is not part of an InnoDB cluster.
* Fixed a bug where an upgrade would fail if the system tables upgrade was skipped
and the upgrade process
was slow for a MySQL Server instance configured as a process.
* Fixed a bug where switching the authentication method during a reconfiguration
would fail.
* Fixed a bug where a reconfiguration would fail when using a password with blank
spaces.
* Fixed a bug where entering special characters in the Seconds field of the
Logging Options configuration
page blocked all other text boxes.
* Fixed a bug where entering special characters in the Advanced Options Path field
of the Advanced Options
dialog would crash the application.

1.4.29 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Added support for creating and configuring the local MySQL Server 8.0 instance
as the seed of a new InnoDB
cluster.
* Added support for creating and adding the local MySQL Server 8.0 instance to a
running InnoDB cluster on
the network.
* Added support for system table upgrades that are handled by the server
(mysqld.exe) instead of by
mysql_upgrade.exe starting from MySQL Server 8.0.16.
* Fixed a bug where upgrading from MySQL Server 5.6.42 would not be possible due
to missing meta data in the
manifest.
* Fixed a bug where attempting to configure a MySQL Server 5.7 or 8.0 installation
failed with the message
"Invalid Server Template".

1.4.28 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* All UI elements have accessibility-related properties set to comply with screen
narrators.
* Unified throughout the application the look and feel of message dialogs for
information, questions and
errors.
 * Fixed an issue where the Test Connection button of the MySQL Router
configuration wizard page was not
testing the connection correctly for newer community versions of MySQL Server
5.7. SSL is enabled by
default in commercial versions and disabled in community ones, and MySQL
Installer was wrongly expecting
SSL to be always enabled instead of just preferring it.
* Fixed an issue using the Modify action for an installed package to add and
remove features at the same time.
* Fixed a bug where users could attempt to add MySQL users during a MySQL Server
configuration (on an initial
installation), and the MySQL User Account dialog did not enforce password
confirmation.
* Fixed a bug where Windows authenticated users could not be created during a
MySQL Server configuration (on
an initial installation); the MySQL User Account dialog did not validate Windows
security tokens correctly.
* Fixed a bug where Windows authenticated users could not be validated using
Windows security tokens
involving a Windows domain. Now Windows users can be validated on the local
machine or within the domain.
When the current Windows authenticated user isn't able to access the Active
Directory of the domain the user
can alternatively provide the credentials for a domain administrator with such
privileges.
* Fixed a bug where the MySQL User Account dialog was adding extra backslashes to
the query sent to MySQL
Server to create a Windows authenticated user when entering its Windows security
tokens using double
backslashes (as MySQL Server documentation states for Windows authenticated
users). MySQL Installer was
expecting single backslashes (as Microsoft documentation states for Windows
security tokens). Now MySQL
Installer supports entering single and double backslashes (for example,
domain\user and domain\\user).
* Fixed a problem where message dialogs would go to the back of the caller MySQL
Installer windows instead
of remaining always on top.
* Fixed a problem where My Oracle Support options were not being enabled or
disabled as expected.
* Modified the help description for the lower_case_table_names variable in the
configuration file templates of
all applicable MySQL Server versions. The help description was misleading
before, now it matches the online
documentation.
* Fixed the documentation link in MySQL Server 8.0 configuration file templates,
it was pointing to MySQL
Server 5.7 documentation instead of the correct MySQL Server 8.0 one.
* Modified the documentation links for all MySQL Server configuration file
templates to use https instead
of http.
* Added support for creating MySQL users with an empty or blank password via the
MySQL User Account dialog.
* Ensured MySQL Server does a clean shutdown after a database upgrade instead of
killing the server process.
* Made the calls to client programs like mysql, mysqladmin and mysql_upgrade more
secure by avoiding to pass
the root password on the command line and rather storing it in a configuration
file in a temporary location
 just while the client program runs.

1.4.27 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Added Connectivity Options to the Options dialog to configure the way MySQL
Installer determines if there
is a valid connection to the internet before attempting to download product
updates. A suggested automatic
method is offered, or a manual one where a list of links can be supplied (and
modified) to check if a
connection to any of them can be established.
* Ensured that navigation of all the product by keyboard is possible and that the
flow is natural.
* Fixed a bug where the Windows pipe name on a Server re-configuration was being
incorrectly changed.
* Ensured the log file paths are validated during a Server configuration, so no
invalid values can be saved
to the configuration file.
* The Server Samples and Examples and Server Documentation product packages are no
longer installed on a
client-only setup, since the installation and configuration of those products
are dependant on an installed
Server.
* Modified the flow of an initial installation of MySQL Installer to always show
the Add Products wizard if
no products are initially installed and MySQL Installer is closed. This also
ensures that if MySQL
Installer is closed without accepting the License Agreement, the License
Agreement page is the very first
page shown when MySQL Installer is opened again.
* Fixed a bug where a Server configuration was attempting to remove a Windows
Firewall rule with the default
TCP/IP port (3306) or the default X Plugin port (33060) before creating new
Windows Firewall rules for the
configured port numbers (which may differ from the default ones). This problem
was causing that if another
Server installation used those ports, the Windows Firewall rules were deleted
incorrectly.
* Fixed some warnings displayed during Server startup related to the
read_buffer_size and
read_rnd_buffer_size variables not being set with proper default values. Now the
values are set correctly
during an initial Server configuration.
* Ensured that the binary log is enabled during a Server configuration, for
versions (like 8.0.x) that
suggest the binary log is enabled by default.
* Ensured that deprecated/invalid Server variables are removed from the Server
configuration file during a
Server upgrade or during a Server reconfiguration.
* Fixed an unhandled exception that was preventing MySQL Installer to upgrade
itself when a new version of
Installer was detected and automatically downloaded for installation.

1.4.26 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
 * Fixed a bug that was not setting the native authentication plugin when
configuring a Sandbox InnoDB
cluster. Now the mysql_native_authentication_plugin is set for root and cluster
related sandbox user
accounts.
* The Advanced Configuration options screen is split into two screens: Logging
Options and Advanced Options.
The first screen contains all the fields related with logging and the advanced
options will contain the
server ID and radio button options to choose which value will be set for
lower_case_table_names server
option. In the case of 8.0 servers this value must not be changed after database
is initialized.
* Set screen dimensions fixed on Authentication Method configuration screen so it
is not affected when
changing DPI configuration on OS and the Next button is visible.
* Fixed an error that was not allowing to add Windows authenticated users when
configuring the Server. Now
it is possible to add them in the Accounts and Roles screen.
* Since Server 8.0.11 the X Protocol is integrated on the Server product so there
is no need to configure it
as a plugin.
* Now on Server 8.0.11 and newer the Plugins and Extentions configuration screen
is removed and the MySQL X
Protocol Port field is moved to the Type and Networking configuration screen.
For previous Server versions
that support X Protocol Plugin the configuration screens doesn't change.
* Fixed the Enterprise Firewall failure when configuring the Server.
* Fixed a bug that automatically selects 32 bit packages instead of 64 bit ones
when selecting an option
different from Custom on the Install Type configuration screen for 64 bit
bundles. Now the correct 64-bit
packages are automatically selected.
* Fixed a bug that was not allowing to add custom users when configuring 5.5 and
5.6 Server versions.
/ Added funtionallity to configure the Enterprise Firewall after its installation.
Now after the plugin is
installed successfully it is configured to run on recording mode for the root
and the custom user accounts.

1.4.25 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Removed the NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER value assigned to the sql-mode server variable
from the configuration file
template for the 8.0 series. The NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER value was already
deprecated in previous Server
versions and finally removed in 8.0.11.
* Fixed configuration file templates in sections specific to the socket, default-
character-set,
character-set-server and innodb_data_home_dir which were written to the
configuration file with a wrong
value of 0.0.

1.4.24 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
 * A new configuration page titled "Authentication Plugin" is shown starting with
MySQL 8.0.4, since the
default authentication method has been changed from that version onwards to the
caching_sha2_password
authentication plugin. The new page advertises the default authentication method
change and its
consequences during package installation and give the user a possibility to
change back to an
authentication method that also works with old clients.
* A new warning dialog is shown when upgrading from a milestone (pre- GA) MySQL
Server release, to warn about
the risks of continuing (compatibility issues, or Server not starting at all)
and about having to perform
some manual steps instead of just upgrading. The release notes of MySQL Server
contain a disclaimer about
the upgrades from milestone releases, so now MySQL Installer shows the warning
to users with all required
information to perform the needed manual steps instead. Users are able to
proceed with the upgrade at their
own risk.
* MySQL Installer is now using .NET Framework 4.5.2, so this is a prerequisite.
* The configuration page where users can choose to setup a sandbox InnoDB cluster
is now available for MySQL
8.0. The configuration of InnoDB cluster is no longer available on 32-bit
operating systems. MySQL
Installer disables the option of configuring a sandbox InnoDB cluster if
installing on Windows 32-bit.
* MySQL Installer has two new options "Install All Products" and "Only install GA
Products" in the "Choosing
a Setup Type" page, which are shown only if the current Server bundle includes
at least one pre-GA package
and if the selected setup type is Developer Default, Client only or Full.
* The "Install All Products" option allows the installation of pre-GA packages
included in the bundle.
* Fixed a bug happening where a Server 32-bit was not found in the current bundle
and was causing the MySQL
Installer not to look anymore for other 32-bit (or architecture ANY) client
packages. Now even if a Server
32-bit is not in the current bundle and the setup type is supposed to return
other client packages, those
are successfully returned. Improved the message shown to users if there are no
packages found, so it is
clearer to understand why the message is being shown.
* The commercial edition of the MySQL Installer is including now an InnoDB Cluster
admin tools that do not
require any prerequisites to be used. The community edition of the MySQL
Installer includes admin tools
that do require a VC++ runtime to be installed. Starting from this version of
MySQL Installer, if the
prerequisite is not already installed, the option to configure a sandbox InnoDB
Cluster is disabled. If
disabled a link is shown from which a dialog to resolve the prerequisite can be
accessed.
* Fixed a problem that was preventing the MySQL Installer from finding related
Documentation and Samples
and Examples packages for MySQL Server 8.0.
* Fixed a problem where MySQL Installer was overwriting older settings in the
configuration file during a
MySQL Server upgrade.
 * The server_character_set and default_character_set options are commented in the
configuration files
produced by MySQL Installer. This allows the MySQL Server to use the default
value for those 2 options
appropriate for the Server version being configured. If the default values need
to change, the values must
be assigned manually by editing the configuration file.
* Product requirements are no longer installed multiple times, when a requirement
is about to be downloaded
it checks if it has been already fulfilled and if so the status is correctly
reflected.
* Now the requirements list is cleared and recalculated correctly when going back
and forth between the
Setup Types and the Requirements panels.
* Configuration steps only appear in the configuration summary panel if they are
really needed. Steps will
no longer appear with an "if necessary" suffix, since if they appear in the list
is because they are needed
and will perform actions.
* Fixed a problem where MySQL Server instances were being re-added to the list
everytime the configuration
page for Samples and Wxamples was shown.
* The configuration step that updates the Windows firewall runs "netsh firewall"
or "netsh advfirewall"
depending on the Windows version, where the latter is supported it is run
instead of the former.

1.4.23 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Enhanced the prerequisite checks for the VC++ 2008 redistributable runtime,
related to MySQL Server 5.5, so
it can detect different versions of the redistributable. The 2008
redistributable does not have a more
generic single way of detection like newer versions of it.
* Fixed a bug in the calculation of values performed during the Server
configuration that depend on the
"Config Type" (Development / Server / Dedicated) when the format for numbers
differ from the American
standard (i.e. commas are used for decimal separator, period used for thousands
separator).
* Set configuration steps propertly on command line interface, when configuring a
MySQL Server so it is
initialized, and started successfully.
* Added checks during the Samples & Examples product configuration to only start
MySQL Server instances that
were not previously running, and only shut those started instances down.

1.4.22 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Added support for the caching_sha2_password plugin used in MySQL Server versions
8.0.4 and greater. This is
needed during Server configuration to be able to start the Server, which uses
SHA2 password caching instead
of native authentication as in previous Server versions.
 1.4.21 Bugs Fixed / Improvements
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Enabled TLS 1.2 protocol for all downloads made by the MySQL Installer for
Windows.
* Set screen dimensions fixed on configuration screens so they are not affected
when changing DPI
configuration on OS and the Next button is visible.
* When doing a sandbox InnoDB cluster configuration, the shortcuts created by the
MySQL Installer to open the
CLI use the configuration file of the seed instance created by the configuration
process.
* Removed the configuration panels that asks users for a sandbox InnoDB cluster's
password. This was needed
to gracefully stop the sandbox cluster before attempting to do a classic
configuration and to start the
sandbox cluster after the classic configuration was finished. There is no longer
a need to stop and start
the sandbox cluster for the classic configuration to take place.
* Fixed a bug in the code that checks prerequisites in the Windows Registry that
was happening only in 32-bit
versions of Windows.
* Changed the Visual Studio detection rules, needed to install MySQL for Visual
Studio, to check for the
following registry keys: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.DTE.X.Y (where X.Y
stands for the supported
versions of Visual Studio, currently 10.0, 11.0, 12.0, 14.0 and 15.0).
* Fixed a but where the Install path was overwritten by its default value every
time Configuration screen was
loaded. Now the default Install path value is set correctly only once.
* Made changes to the configuration page where MySQL Server instances compatible
with the version of the
Samples and Examples product are shown, so that these instances are properly
identified as stand-alone or
InnoDB cluster ones, and so that more information about them is shown to users.
Also, it is now possible to
install the sample databases on multiple instances from this screen. The screen
has a filter to hide MySQL
Server instances that may be running in read-only mode, which may be slave
instances in an InnoDB cluster,
since data cannot be created in those.
* Fixed the detection rules for the Visual Studio Tools for Office needed to
install MySQL for Excel.
The rules were changed to check a Windows Registry key in the Registry32 view
instead of the Default one.
* Changed all VC++ runtime download links to point to the latest versions released
by Microsoft including the
one that fixes an error where an older VC++ 64-bit runtime was causing problems
needing to install its
corresponding 32-bit version as well. With these latest VC++ runtime versions
that is no longer necessary.
* Added a password verification box to the sandbox InnoDB cluster configuration
page. Also added visual aid
to report the password strength. This makes it consistent to the way a root
password is supplied for the
stand-alone Server configuration.
* Added a validation to disallow empty or blank usernames added in the Accounts
and Roles section of a MySQL
 Server configuration.
* Fixed a cosmetic problem where the configuration log was showing messages when
Windows Firewall ports were
being opened, but the messages were showing incorrect port numbers.
* Fixed a bug where the MySQL Installer was trying to start a stand-alone MySQL
Server instance during a
sandbox InnoDB cluster configuration.
* Changed the way the Automatic Catalog Update process runs, it now runs using a
system account which enables
the hiding of the process window correctly. This version of the MySQL Installer
will patch an existing
Windows scheduled task related to the catalog update process to fix this
behavior.
* Fixed a problem with passwords containing special characters like ";", so that
they are processed and sent
to the MySQL Server correctly.
* Fixed a problem where the MySQL Windows Authentication plugin was not being
added to the configuration file
when Windows authenticated users are added during the Server configuration.
* Enhanced the way the MySQL Installer overrides install locations defined in
custom property values like
INSTALL_ROOT. This fixes a specific problem with MySQL Shell MSIs using
INSTALL_ROOT to set the default
install location.
* Fixed the link to the MySQL Shell release notes displayed in the main dashboard
of the MySQL Installer.
* Fixed the permissions the Automatic Catalog Update process needs so it can
modify an already existing
product catalog when updates are available. This version of the MySQL Installer
will patch an existing
Windows scheduled task related to the catalog update process to fix this
behavior.
* Fixed a bug where the MySQL Installer was incorrectly processing a found catalog
update, causing error
messages. Now when new products are found during a catalog update, only the
required information is
processed.
* Enabled the automatic scrollbars for the text view of the product catalog
update.
* Fixed a value in the configuration file for MySQL Server 5.5 installations so
that the value of
MAX_ALLOWED_PACKET is set in the same way it is set for 5.6 and newer versions
of the MySQL Server.
* Fixed a bug when upgrading a Server version previously configured as a sandbox
InnoDB cluster. Now during
the upgrade configuration an explanation text will be shown with an option to
recreate the sandbox cluster.
The mysql_upgrade tool will not be run against each instance of the sandbox
cluster as per design, since
the sandbox cluster is for testing purposes only. So for the sake of ensuring a
sandbox cluster will
continue working with a new Server version, the suggested option is to destroy
the cluster and create it
again. If recreating the cluster is not chosen at this point, users will be
responsible of recreating the
cluster or running mysql_upgrade on every instance of the sandbox cluster
manually.
* Removed from the INI file templates entries related to InnoDB cluster
configuration that are invalid to
 start the Server. These settings were, in previous versions, commented out but
since they are really not
valid values the Server understands, the settings should not be kept in that
file. These values are now
stored in a file called installer_config.xml, found in the same location as the
regular Server
configuration file.

1.4.20 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* The query_cache_size and query_cache_type variables were removed from the my.ini
configuration file
templates for MySQL Server 5.7 and 8.0, since they were deprecated and if
present cause errors preventing
the Server from starting.
* Replaced the table_cache variable with table_open_cache in the my.ini
configuration file templates for
MySQL Server 5.1 and 5.5, in the same way the variable has been already replaced
in previous MySQL
Installer versions for Server 5.6 and greater.
* Fixed the detection of 32-bit prerequisites on 64-bit Windows environments when
a 64-bit version of the
prerequisite was already present.
* Fixed the detection of Python 3.5 which even when installed for All Users it
creats in the Windows Registry
keys in the CURRENT_USER hive instead of creating them in the LOCAL_MACHINE one.
* Fixed the detection of Python for the cases where the product is installed for
the current user only.

1.4.19 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Added support to configure an InnoDB cluster sandbox test setup consisting of
three, five, seven, or nine
MySQL server instances. InnoDB cluster requires MySQL 5.7.17 or higher.
* Added support to install and configure MySQL Router 2.1.3 or later as a local
Windows service.
* Links to MySQL for Visual Studio feature documentation shown in the MySQL
Installer dashboard did not
connect properly to the product information.
* The text box with the log of actions performed at the end of the configuration
steps for a recently
installed MySQL server accepted text input.
* This fix ensures that the log is read-only and can be copied.

1.4.18 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* The plugins are now loaded directly from the my.ini file, simplifying the
process.
* The scheduled task is now created to be periodically executed at the very hour
the installer is run for the
first time.
 1.4.17 Bugs Fixed / Improvements
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* The correct message is now displayed when no internet connection is available
instead of displaying the
generic message of "Invalid credentials".
* Manifest was updated and it now shows all the latest version of products.
* When updating the Catalog it didn't accurately displayed the latest update date
which is now fixed.
* On commercial editions, the password is now validated correclty on the first
screen and we also display a
message specific to problems with the internet connection additional to the
generic one for "Invalid
credentials".
* The problem that prevented users from downloading Connector C from the archive
was fixed.
* There was a problem that prevented you from downloading and installing MySQL
5.6.29 GPL from the internet
which is now fixed.
* When deleting "%ProgramData%\MySQL\MySQL Installer for
Windows\Manifest\Templates\my-template-5.7.ini"
and installing a 5.7 server the default "my-template.ini" should be enough to
get the server started.
* A problem with the registry keys created an invalid state for MySQL Installer
where two intallers from the
same version could be registered in the system at the same time. This is now
fixed and should no longer occur.

1.4.16 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Enhanced the reconfigure process to allow my.ini updates avoiding loss of custom
configuration values.

1.4.15 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* Fixed problem with missing registry keys for local machine.
* Added a new configuration page for MySQL Server plugins, available when
installing Server versions 5.7.12
and higher.

1.4.14 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* loose_keyring_file_data option was added for server's 5.7.11 and greater.

1.4.13 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
* --skip-grant-tables option removed when is being upgraded any server

1.4.12 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

---------------------------
* THE INSTALLER IS THROWING AN EXCEPTION WHEN IS DETECTING EXISTING PRODUCTS

1.4.10 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------
* RUNNING MSI IN CONSOLE MODE DIRECTLY DOESN'T WORK
* QUIET MODE INSTALL FAILS TO INSTALL MANIFEST
* MYSQL INSTALLER - COMMUNITY UPGRADES WORKBENCH FROM GA 6.2.5 TO RC 6.3.2
* MYSQL INSTALLER FALS TO UPGRADE ITSELF
* CLI DOESN'T WORK SPECIFYING INSTALLDIR OR DATADIR
* ISSUES WHILE UPGRADING MYSQL UTILITIES 1.5.4 TO 1.5.5 USING WINDOWS INSTALLERS.
* INSTALLER OPENS FIREWALL PORT EVEN IF THE USER CHOOSE NOT TO

1.4.9 Bugs Fixed / Improvements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------
* Verified the installer detect well an updated VSTO for MySQL for Excel
* Fix a problem happening during the manifest automatic updates (prompt to apply
update that cause a null
reference exception)
* The first the installer runs, a non-custom setup type will try to install the
