How do I install MySQL on an apache server 2 with PHP 5 installed.
Ive got apache and php running fine, and ive got mysql installed, but I cant get it to "connect" or to show that its installed on the php test page.
I Installed apache 2, my php directory is in
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\php
which contains my php.ini and my php5_apache2.dll, I made sure I had the extension_dir in php.ini set to
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\php\ext
which is where my extnesions are, and then add the line extension=php_mysql.dll, I restart apache, no errors, I check my testphp.php page, and still see no fucking mysql section, nothing.
What am I doing wrong?
I've already tried different version of MySQL, am I just testing to see if its installed the wrong way? How do I know its working, cause the book I read said once I edited the php.ini, my php test page would now have a "MySQL" section, but there is no mention of mySQL, aside from some little thing saying sql.safe_mode Off
