When I am opening XAMPP and click start MySQL button, it gives me an error. I had started it just before, but now it isn't working.

12:19:12 PM [mysql] Attempting to start MySQL app...
12:19:12 PM [mysql] Status change detected: running
12:19:13 PM [mysql] Status change detected: stopped
12:19:13 PM [mysql] Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly.
12:19:13 PM [mysql] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
12:19:13 PM [mysql] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method
12:19:13 PM [mysql] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
12:19:13 PM [mysql] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
12:19:13 PM [mysql] If you need more help, copy and post this
12:19:13 PM [mysql] entire log window on the forums

Here are the contents of the error log below:

2013-08-02 12:19:12 4536 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled.

2013-08-02 12:19:12 4536 [Note] InnoDB: Reading tablespace information from the .ibd files...

The most important error message is here below:

2013-08-02 12:19:12 4536 [ERROR] InnoDB:
Attempted to open a previously opened tablespace.
Previous tablespace mysql/innodb_table_stats uses space ID: 1 at filepath: .\mysql\innodb_table_stats.ibd.
Cannot open tablespace xat/payments which uses space ID: 1 at filepath: .\xat\payments.ibd

The rest of the log:

 InnoDB: Error: could not open single-table tablespace file .\xat\payments.ibd

InnoDB: We do not continue the crash recovery, because the table may become
InnoDB: corrupt if we cannot apply the log records in the InnoDB log to it.
InnoDB: To fix the problem and start mysqld:
InnoDB: 1) If there is a permission problem in the file and mysqld cannot
InnoDB: open the file, you should modify the permissions.
InnoDB: 2) If the table is not needed, or you can restore it from a backup,
InnoDB: then you can remove the .ibd file, and InnoDB will do a normal
InnoDB: crash recovery and ignore that table.
InnoDB: 3) If the file system or the disk is broken, and you cannot remove
InnoDB: the .ibd file, you can set innodb_force_recovery > 0 in my.cnf
InnoDB: and force InnoDB to continue crash recovery here.

First, try to use the MySQL backup folder which is included with XAMPP. So do the following:

  1. First, rename the folder mysql/data to mysql/data_old.
  2. Create a replacement folder mysql/data
  3. Copy the data that resides in the mysql/backup to the new mysql/data folder
  4. Copy all of the database folders that are in the mysql/data_old to mysql/data (skip the mysql, performance_schema, and the phpmyadmin folders from data_old)
  5. Lastly copy the ibdata1 file from the mysql/data_old and replace it inside mysql/data folder.
  6. Start MySQL from the XAMPP control panel.
