But when I run it,the custom page display before nstalling the Mysql.So I can't even have the Mysql installed and don't create the database at all .How can I control them?
My script just like this:
...
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_WELCOME
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_LICENSE "License.txt"
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_COMPONENTS
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY

;let user input the password
Page custom PGIni_DBPassword PGleave_DBPassword
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES


section "Install Mysql"
...
sectionEnd

section "Create Database"
...
SectionEnd

The code in the sections is executed once the installer hits the instfiles page. Because of that, the code will not run until the user clicks the Install button and before all pages are passed.

You should save the result of the input page in a variable or simply keep the INI file stored in $PLUGINSDIR. In the section code, read that variable or the INI file and use it after the server starts running.

That SetPriorityClass call sets the priority for the installer. I don't see how it's related to your question.
