title: XAMPP and MySQL error on startup
body: <p>I am getting this error when I try starting the MySQL service through the XAMPP control panel:</p>
  
  <pre><code>2014-08-17 14:53:44 6028 [ERROR] TCP/IP, --shared-memory, or --named-pipe should be configured on NT OS
  2014-08-17 14:53:44 6028 [ERROR] Aborting
