In DW 3 I have opened a new empty php-file.
Then I cllicked Databases in the dropdownmeny Windows.
To the right on the screen i clicked the + sign and then clicked MySQL-connection
I filled in the form as follows:
Connectionname: Test
MySQL-Server: localhost
User: root
Password:
Database: my_first_database
Hitting OK results in the message "An unknown fault has occured"
Apache and mysql is running on my PC. phpmyadmin is closed, localhost is not opened in my browser.
Username and password for mysql checked in phpmyadmin.
