i installed php and apache fine on my pc, but mysql is giving problems. in winmysqladmin, you cant create a adb on the databases tab. all that lets you do is flush threads, flush processes, etc. so i had to create my database through the mysql command line. also, phpMyAdmin doesnt work, it returns an auth error. but i know for definite the username and password. whats going on?? is it something to do with win xp and users or win xps firewall??? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
