Can't connect MySQL with PHP - Please Help
SPONSORED LINKS BY GOOGLE Hi
I'm completely new to MySQL, PHP and Apache. I dowloaded Apache 2.23, PHP 5.1.6 and MySQL 5.0.27 and setup on Windows 2000 Professional as follows: 1) Apache 2.23 - installed using installer then edited httpd-conf file by inserting the following: ********************************************* ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php-cgi.exe" <Directory "C:/php/"> AllowOverride None Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> ********************************************* The Directory portion above was added because it generated 403 access permission error when tested (phpinfo.php). 2) PHP 5.1.6 - extracted in C:\, copied php.in-recommended in WINNT changed to php.ini then edited as follows: ********************************************* Added ext in the end - extension_dir = "./ext" Uncommented - extension=php_mysql.dll ********************************************* 3) MySQL 5.0.27 - installed using default options. For testing created mysqltest.php file and saved in Apache's htdocs folder. ********************************************* mysqltest.php <html> <head><title>MySQL Connection Test</title></head> <body> <h2> <?php $connection = mysql_connect("localhost","root","") or die("Sorry - unable to connect to MySQL"); echo("Congratulations - you connected to MySQL"); ?> </h2> </body> </html> ********************************************* When I try to run this file in the browser - http://localhost/mysqltest.php - the only thing I get is this: Sorry - unable to connect to MySQL Can anyone please tell me what am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance K Kien |
