Hi, How does one configure PHP support for MySQL on Windows? My host operating system is Windows Server 2003. 1. I have installed Apache 2.2 via the msi installer (apache_2.2.4-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi). 2. I have installed MySQL 5.1 via the windows installer (mysql-5.1.20-bet-win32.zip). 3. I have installed PHP 5 via the msi installer (php-5.2.3-win32-installer.msi) 4. I have enabled the php_mysql.dll extension inside of php.ini 5. I have ensured that libmysql.dll in on the system path. I have done all of this correctly, but I still cannot open a database from php script! What am I doing wrong? Can any one please advise? Please help a PHP/MySQL newbie. Faithfully, Sean B.

I have only one php.ini and it is in the correct location. My problem must be something else. But thanks anyway.

Your initial post told us very little useful info, just that you'd install this, that and the other. Did you test each component along the way to ensure it was working? If so, what errors does PHP give when attempting to use a MySQl db? You might try looking at this step by step guide also to see if you missed anything http://wamp.corephp.co.uk/ -- Niel Archer ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Sean B. Durkin" <a@b> To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2007 08:53:56 +1000 Subject: Re: How do configure PHP support for MySQL on Windows? Niel, Thanks for your advise. I have tested the Apache web server, and it is working fine. I have tested MySQL through a console window, and used it to create a database, and it is working fine. I have tested PHP on Apache by viewing php pages, and it is working fine. However if I use a php script to call any php mysql database functions, then parsing bombs out without returning an error message. For example, the following script returns an blank page to the browser. There is not even an error message. The following code is from Kevin Yank's book "Build Your Own Database Driven Web-site using PHP and MySQL". ================================================ <html> <head> <title>Our List of Jokes</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> </head> <body> <?php // Connect to the database server $dbcnx = @mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'mypasswd'); if (!$dbcnx) { exit('<p>Unable to connect to the ' . 'database server at this time.</p>'); } // Select the jokes database if (!@mysql_select_db('ijdb')) { exit('<p>Unable to locate the joke ' . 'database at this time.</p>'); } ?> <p>Here are all the jokes in our database:</p> <blockquote> <?php // Request the text of all the jokes $result = @mysql_query('SELECT joketext FROM joke'); if (!$result) { exit('<p>Error performing query: ' . mysql_error() . '</p>'); } // Display the text of each joke in a paragraph while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo '<p>' . $row['joketext'] . '</p>'; } ?> </blockquote> </body> </html> ================================================ I have followed Kevin Yank's book, which is a step-by-step guide. Any ideas anyone? Faithfully, Sean B.
