hey guys
first i would like to tell u something about myself and my comp,
i am on windows 7 x64, and i am a php coder, and i am ready to do anything for my below issue..
1) i downloaded and installed apache from apache.org and its working like a charm.
2) i downloaded the complete x64 mysql installer from here, and installed, no error nothing. that tooo works like charm.
3) i downloaded and installed php vc6 safe thread zip and configured apache to work with it..
now that too works like a charm.
now the issue,
i enabled mysql.dll and mysqli.dll in php.ini and checked in phpinfo() and i can see both the extenstions are enabled.
so i made a short test script like
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "******") or die(mysql_error());
echo("it works");
and i ran it, i get a blank white screen after many seconds..
then i ran phpmyadmin, and tried to log in into it, same error.
i verified the mysql server is running, and i tried to log into it using console and passed.
so can anyone tell me what is the issue?
i did one check myself, i turned off mysql server manually, and re-ran both, myscript and phpmyadmin, same error, so my best guess is php cannot communicate with mysql..
can u pleaes please help me, i need this badly
