dark_messenger84 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 I have correctly configured MySQL to accept incoming connections, but my latest problem is configuring PHP to connect to it, as you can see in my topic discription, I am trying to install phpBB and because of my problem I'm not getting very far.

Darkness Soul Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 the connect code is write correctly??have you change the config file to connect to your db, and not the default?I've used phpbb [b]long[/b] time ago, so don't remember exactly how it works to connect..^~ D.Soul Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/7973-having-trouble-connecting-to-my-mysql-database/#findComment-29062 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_messenger84 Posted April 20, 2006 Author Share Posted April 20, 2006 I'm not sure about the connection code in the installation script, I daren't tamper with that... PHP.net tells me to enable an extension in my configuration and following that, correct connection settings... in which I have done and also add a client library file to the Win XP path in which I have done, and to make sure things are working correctly I downloaded the up-to-date PHP connector extensions from MySQL.com.
