That's really weird. Flutter doesn't use MySql in any way.

[bhavincb]

Yes I also checked code. And found no use of MySQL . That is why I had opened issue.

hii @zoechi ,
any idea on this? i'm stuck at starting flutter.

[zoechi]

No ideas. I can't imagine this being caused by Flutter.

hii @zoechi ,
removing C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Fabric 1.5 & MySQL Utilities 1.5\; and C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Fabric 1.5 & MySQL Utilities 1.5\Doctrine extensions for PHP\; from system variable Path solved issue.
but still doesn't understand why this error was raising.

Sounds like these MySQL directories contain a flutter command.

Having & in the path in a linux based system sounds quite dangerous. Your OS is clearly not linux but there may be assumptions inside flutter tools that get confused by that.

If you're willing to do an experiment, add something in the fashion of C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Fabric 1.5 & ABC123; and see if you get an error for ABC123 not found instead.

Can you post the whole output from flutter -v into a gist (http://gist.github.com/) and add the link here? Better if you can reproduce it with the ABC123 example. Also pls include echo %PATH% before running.

hii @fmatosqg ,

adding C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Fabric 1.5 & ABC123; does gives me below error.

'ABC123' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
'where' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Error: Unable to find git in your PATH.

you where right original issue was having & inside the path.
also issue only exist for flutter command. other commands like git and npm working perfectly fine.

here is gist as you asked: https://gist.github.com/bhavincb/af059afc27c814808b2e92d3a6aa910e

This solves the same problem for me.

Unfortunately, the Zip provided on flutter.io gave me a problem. To avoid this error, I had to use the GitHub repository following the following procedure.

Go to C:\ Drive and create a folder called flutter.
Go to that folder and start git bash
Type git clone -b beta https://github.com/flutter/flutter.git and enter
After its complete, add the path C:\flutter\flutter\bin in environment variables
Finally, start CMD and type flutter doctor and the error is disappeared

@Eng-MohamedGadala I appreciate your upvote

[zoechi]

I assume this is solved.
Please add a comment if you think there is something that needs to be done by the Flutter team and I'll reopen.

As per request from support. The file that you download from the Flutter site is: flutter_windows_v0.9.4-beta which for some strange reason seems to conflict with MySQL. I downloaded flutter_windows_v0.10.1-dev from the Flutter site and uninstalled MySQL (it was an old version from 2015). It is working now.

I suggest that the download file from the Flutter site is changed to a later Dev version.

@dawningtruth

Flutter doesn't contain any mention of mysql anywhere it it's codebase.
The issue has to be on your system setup.
Please add the output of flutter doctor -v and everything where mysql appears in your environment setting.
You should get the environment by executing

env

in a terminal window
You can also try

env | grep -i mysql

to get only the output where mysql appears.
