I have and to no avail , im not using any firewall software or anything that could block it , I wonder what could be wrong here

One more thing. You are trying to view phpMyAdmin on the same computer that has Abyss and MySQL installed on it, right?

Rev_Chris

yea I am ,
I restarted my pc recently and now mysql says more stuff than it used to , it appears to have a db active now but phpmy admin still doesnt work...
(could it be a setting in abyss?)
also the first word in the ODBC box in mysql is no (or offf)
could this indicate a problem?

Your guide seemed pretty clear to me, however, I get this error when I go to http://localhost/phpMyAdmin :
The page cannot be displayed...
thanks for your time

iNaNimAtE

You installed phpMyAdmin into that directory, correct?
Also, you are typing that on the computer with phpMyAdmin and Abyss installed, correct?

olivierp

PhpMyAdmin should be in what directory ?
Currently, it is installed there :
D:\webserver\Abyss Web Server\scripts\phpMyAdmin
And yes I did type it in the address bar of the pc which has Abyss and phpMyAdmin installed.
I also have PHP installed at C:\PHP
Thanks for your time.

You need to setup an aliases to get to that address

Turn "register_globals" to "on" in your php.ini file and see if it works.

I have followed all the instructions to install PHP,MySQL and PHPMyAdmin, but I get this error.
#1045 - Access denied for user: 'admin@localhost' (Using password: YES)
I have checked that my.ini and config.inc.php have the same user name and password. I have not yet set any restrictions in Abyss to these folders.
Any Ideas?

i get this error

cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP Configuration

what did i do wrong ?

marcoa_morales

I get the same Error:


cannot load MySQL extension,
please check PHP Configuration.

TRUSTAbyss

Don't install PHP 5 with MySQL 4.0.20d , use the new 4.1 if your going
to go ahead and use the new PHP 5.0.0 , this is due to using PHP 5.
PHP 4.3 and Up will get rid of this problem but using PHP 5
on the old MySQL's can cause problems , I advise you to
use a different PHP version like 4.3.6 or later *sigh*

You can use MySQL with PHP 5 but you'll have to edit php.ini and to uncomment the line (remove the leading ; symbol):

;extension=php_mysql.dll

liar2

I tried to set this up and I recieved the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP Configuration". How would I go about correcting this?

iNaNimAtE

You must make sure you have the php_mysql.dll file in your PHP directory. If you don't, download the PHP ZIP, and unzip it into there.

Hey i updated my MySql to 4.1
but still the same error
and i can't find the php.ini file
