Issue running MySQL.
Posted: 28. March 2009 01:18
I am a n00b with all this and I am stuck again and need help. I was here a few days ago and was helped loads by Izzy so I thought I'd return and hope someone can point me in the right direction.
My issue is with MySQL. It is running in the background. The XAMPP control panel (I know I am not to use it, but I opened it to see what it said!) shows that MySQL is running. However when I go to http://localhost it shows that MySQL database is deactivated. Everything else is activated (except for FTP Service). Why would this be? Everything was running yesterday. MySQL is working fine when I use the cmd window.
I can't connect to MySQL using PHP, and I can't figure out why not. I am sure that the PHP coding is right.
Thanks guys.
