zedd Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hello guys, I'm having trouble with running mysql using WAMP Server (portable version). Prior to moving to MySQL I learnt PHP by starting Server_Start.bat straight from WAMP Server folder. Now I moved to learning MySQL. What I did is start mysqlrun.bat from WAMP Server\diskw\usr\local\mysql folder (see attached picture) and then run myphpadmin from a browser by typing: http://localhost/myphpadmin as instructed in on online tutorial, but it did not work - the browser generated Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to localhost. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Sounds like Apache isn't running. It needs to be since phpMyAdmin is a web based application. Just start the WAMP stack like normal and try it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
