MySQL connection

Postby Hunter » 03. September 2005 16:45

Hello. My MysQLS will not work correctly as you can see here: http://83.227.193.230/xampp/status.php
and as you can see here:
http://83.227.193.230/phpmyadmin/
the error looks to be that my MySQL and phpMyAdmin dont getting any connection to each other.
Think this is strange becouse I have installed it right now without any changes. Shouldent it work automaticly then?
Would greatful if anyone could tell me what could be wrong.
My goal is to put up an database.

Maybe there is a problem/conflict with the MySQL server in "C:\Program\MySQL\MySQL Server 4.1\bin"...

Should it not be ""C:\Program\xampp\mysql\bin"?

Just realised I had(guess it´s the old one) at "C:\Program\MySQL\MySQL Server 4.1\bin".

Do you think it might be an conflict becouse of this? Should change any settings in them or remove any of them?

edit: Think I whant to know my MySQL login. Cant find anywhere to create it. And as I said I havent done anything after the innstallation

There is something wrong with the picture.

Can you make a normal post with the error message?

There is no MySQL-Server running on localhost?

AHA! Had to start it with "mysql_start" icon located in "C:\xampp". Thanks. I have also created an database now and tried to install phpBB forum but getting an error when installing that says:
Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\phpBB2\db\mysql4.php on line 330

Warning: mysql_errno(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\phpBB2\db\mysql4.php on line 331
phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database


The problem is that my "mysql4.php" file is only 7 lines totaly(and they are LONG). Anyone know what I should do to fix that error?

IMHO you give the phpBB setup script the wrong details (Host/DB/User/Pass) for MySQL.
