From a local PC connected on an intranet, I attempted to install the BitNami WAMP stack 5.4.15-0 onto a shared folder on the server, with the idea in mind to make WAMP and its modules accessible by clients connected to the network. All local firewalls were disabled for the installation.
The installation halted right near the end of the installation and the following error appeared:
"Unable to install MySQL as a service with the name wampstackMySQL"
I tried this same process from another PC on the network but had the same problem.
I've found this problem has been raised a few times previously but unfortunately with no solution found.

Any idea of what may be causing this?
