oustu Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I have recently installed Xampp and made a simple php file. When I try to connect to my server with the basic username("root") and no password, I just get this: Could not connect: My code looks like this: <html> <body> <?php $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root"); if ($con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } ?> </body> </html> I haven't really messed with any other settings so can anybody tell me if I am missing something or doing something wrong? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corbin Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 if($con) I think you meant to put if(!$con). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
