Does anyone have any info on the instal parameters for MYSQL on a windows server, there is no typical install as described in the documentation. Any help would be appreciated.

What do you mean exactly by "parameters"? I can tell you that MySQL installer for Windows requires Microsoft Dot NET v4 to first be installed (search Microsoft's website for dotNetFx40). Also your MySQL installer should be the full version (around 250MB). Sorry if any of this was already obvious to you!

Oh... you mean during the installation? Just choose "Server Only" and if you'd like setup the root user using the installer GUI, otherwise this can be done via Command Line.
