Are you in Windows or Linux? What development tool are you trying to start? Do you mean the Daemon (mysqld)? Show us what command you execute and the output (copy/paste please).

you need to provide username and password to the mysql.exe as that is a command line interface to mysql.
I'd suggest you download their GUI tools which is actually powerful enough for most uses.

get a Book or read some of the online tutorials on mysql/sql.
get SQLYog to help you administer/code.
mysql (.) org is a great start.
