Apache Friends Support Forum

I can’t activate the MySQL database. I have followed the two instructions given on “http://localhost/xampp/” Welcome page. But it for some reason isn’t working.
I have tried to uncomment and comment the file in the “hosts” file.
I have tried to type uninstall/install the” ipv6” in the “cmd” but it doesn’t work eather, it says that the command doesn’t exist.

I’m using:
XAMPP 1.7.4 Beta2
Windows 7

What should I do?

You should report it on the the Beta Page report form just like it says there:

Please send us your experiences and your opinion about the beta version you downloaded.

Version:

Please provide your e-mail address. In some cases we may need to ask you one or two questions about your config.

http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-beta.html

Only the developers support/view that traffic.

I think its a known issue anyway BTW. Software without 'issues' gets released.

As for what you should do - uninstall the beta - and install the released software if you actually need to use it. Beta versions are for testing

Good Luck

I were in need of the latest PHP so that’s why I tried the beta.
Ok I send a report about it.

Thx either way.
