Dear all I have installed apache 2, php 5, mysql server 5. Apache and php are working fine. When i am calling queries to mysql they fail. i.e. <?php $connect = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "mysqlpass") or die ("check your server connection."); mysql_create_db("mytest") or die(mysql_error()); ?> when i do c:/show databases there is not a new database created. however when i make by intention the password wrong it returns the "check your server connection".For some reason some php functions for mysql don't seem to work. In which direction should i look?? Many thanks Cheers Jan
