Problems with the Windows version of XAMPP, questions, comments, and anything related.

xampp for Windows 1.7.0 - no access to myPhpAdmin

Postby BROE » 25. February 2009 16:14

Having installed xampp 1.7 I am unable to access myPhpAdmin for creation of a database:

# 2003 Server is not answering -
Connection for control user as defined in your configuration failed.

(Translated from a Danish error code text)

I uninstalled a previous version and installed 1.7.0 after cleaning and restarting. Running Vista. Can anyone help? Could it be a bug since quite a few others apparently have trouble with access rights,too?

Thank you and best regards

Is MySQL running?

No

Why not?

- if you start MySQL as service, read the Windows event log
- if you your start MySQL as application, use mysql_start.bat to read an error message

I had the same problem - It turned out that I needed to load some .dll's from php.ini (uncomment them) and then insert the
path to PEAR in the path variable. I inserted this -- C:\xampp\PHP\Pear -- into the system path variable and everything worked almost perfectly. Hope this helps.

-> newbie - thank you - but I would like to avoid fiddling with files - being unfamiliar with xampp at that level ...

-> Wiedmann
My Windows event log says (in Danish, unfortunately)

So why does it crash? I haven't got a clue. No trouble with earlier versions - considering reinstallation of 1.6.8.

Well, that's from Apache and not MySQL (and maybe another problem).

Back to your first question:
Are you starting MySQL as service (Svc is checked in Control Panel) or not?

I am starting MySQL as service and read the Windows event log. Have also tried mysql_start.bat and mysql_stop.bat - and the information indicates that a file is missing. Reinstallation?

I had a problem with php pages as well (including phpmyadmin)
Renaming some files (replacing originals) solved that problem for me.
See last comment of moderator in this topic.

If it does not work you can easily restore the original files

->Wiedmann/Imolenaar - thank you!

Wiedmanns recommendation to Imolenaar:
3 additional things to do:
- Rename/copy "libmysql_5.1.51a.dll" to "libmysql.dll" in "\xampp\apache\bin" and "\xampp\php".
- Rename/copy "php_mysql_5.0.51a.dll" to "php_mysql.dll" in "\xampp\php\ext".
- Rename/copy "php_mysqli_5.0.51a.dll" to "php_mysqli.dll" in "\xampp\php\ext".

I checked my folders."libmysql.dll", "php_mysql.dll" and "php_mysqli.dll" already exist in the respective folders along with the _5.1.51a.dll-files. Can I delete the _5.1.51a.dll-files or?

As for the apparently missing file, I could attach a screenshot (pdf-file) of the information from the ...start.bat-file. But it seems that special permission is required.

No you copy the _5.1.51a.dll files then rename the copies of the _5.1.51a.dll to the existing file names and overwrite the existing files with the renamed copies of the _5.1.51a.dll files - any clearer for you?

When you run the setup_xampp.bat file a console window opens and in the top left corner of the title bar is a small icon.

If you right click on the icon a context menu pops out.

Select Edit then Mark and then drag your cursor over the text to you want to copy.

Go back to the Edit menu again and select Copy.

Now go to your reply text box in the form and right click in the box and select paste.

Job done.

Thank you - too long since I worked with DOS and C:\ - :-)

The renaming/replacing operation did not work for me. Below you see the start.bat-text before renaming and after.

a) renaming these files have nothing to do with the MySQL server, only with the MySQL client in PHP.
b) I see no problems in your "mysql_start.bat" output.

Hi again,

My knowledge of the different applications in xampp are limited, unfortunately.

But I managed to reinstall xampp 1.6.8 - although I now have to run it with the mysql.bat and apache.bat files. But luckily - and after a good deal of trouble - I have my databases up and running again. Neither the xampp 1.6.8 nor 1.7.0 console work at all - even though I installed at a different drive. Maybe Vista is the culprit - who knows.

May I be looking forward to xampp 1.7.1? : -). It is after all THE SOFTWARE for dummies like me!

Thanks again and best regards
