>   Components: Dist - core (+ wrapper scripts)
>     Versions: 2.1
>  Environment: Daisy 2.1 is running on Microsoft Windows 2003 Server with Service pack 2. On a 3GHZ Dell PowerEdge with 1GB RAM. The MySQL Server is running on Red Hat 3.4 Release 3 with 12GB RAM. MySQL Version is 5.

Which is logical, since no MySQL exists on the Windows machine.

The dependency is enabled by default, so did you disable it? If so,
did you uninstall the service and install it again? Any changes to the
conf file do not take effect immediately, only after reinstalling the
service.

It's unlikely that this helps. However, installing the MySQL server on
the Windows machine would help probably. This shouldn't be necessary,
though.

It would certainly help if you posted the log files from the
repository server service.

One further remark: If you are running into installation problems you
should discuss this issue on the discussion list first, rather than
adding an JIRA issue immediately. If it turns out to be a bug or if
you are sure that you found a bug, feel free to add a JIRA issue
immediately.
