Can't install MySQL Server 5.6

Tags:

mysql

When I try to install MySQL server 5.6 commercial edition (64 bit, although I get the same issue with 32 bit) I get this error message every time, and no matter what I do. I can't progress with the installation.

Unhandled exception has occurred in your application ... (bit about what continue/quit buttons do) String was not recognized as valid DateTime

I haven't had to input anything, so I presume the datetime field is being pulled from my computer directly. I have researched the problem and it appears that it is because I am in the UK, with datetime being formatted dd/mm/yyyy and it is expecting a datetime of mm/dd/yyyy.

Using my windows 8.1 pc, I can't find a way to change the date format to american, and if I could I'm not sure if I'd have to keep it that way every time I wanted to run the database server.

Am I missing something, is there an easy way to install this?

Why MySQL server is not installing?

Re-run Installer From Start Menu Once the installer has completed, if the original attempt to install MySQL has failed, go to your Start Menu and look for an application called "MySQL installer". When you run the Application, you may be able to choose your configuration.

Step 1: Go to http://www.mysql.com/downloads/ and download MySQL Community Server. Choose your appropriate Operating System/X64/X86 as shown in the below Screenshot. Step 2: I've downloaded 64-Bit Windows msi file. Double Click on the msi file, you'll be welcomed with the Installation screen as seen below.

Thanks to Marc B for the following answer:

"Go to control panel -> region & language, and then change the date to a U.S. type format".
