Rathaur,

Did a search on the mysql.com site, and came up with this:



Although it was a problem with Windows XP, it could be the same solution for you!

Have you configured your my.ini/my.cnf file as well?

Let me know if this works out for you.

Thanks man ! but I never tried it. Initially I did configure the my.ini and it doesnt worked either.
Later I remove all the mysql installation and started a fresh one. What I did was unzip the mysqlwin and run the setup again. By magic it worked !!

Now I have a new problem ... I have a system which is running on my PC ( the installation in my notebook ) and it works fine. But running the same system in notebook I got this error messages. Seems like I have to declare or initialize variables before using them.

Warning: Use of undefined constant login - assumed 'login' in c:\www\discipline\index.php on line 9

and its bunch of them. I guess I have to set somewhere all those things , so it wont happen. Please advise ....

I am using: Mysql 3.23.22-beta, PHP 4.0 , Windows NT 5.0 build 2195 and apache ...

thanks and appreciate ur help

Can you post your index.php page. I have a feeling it has to do more with the code than with the mySQL installation.

Just to see if your server is running, create a script and put this code inside:

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

Save it as whatever you like, and run the file. If all is working, a screen should pop up with all your PHP config details.

Try it out.

thats the first thing i did after installing apache and php. (before installing mysql) and its perfectly fine.

i can post the index.php. even a form in the index.php is fine , except for the variable part. its keep on saying the error is varible is not initiliazed. but once the variable is initialized i.e. to 0 or "" then it ok ...

is there anything to do in php.ini ?

hi

Finally i solved the problem.

In php.ini set the error_reporting =0 or any other value which doesnot include E_WARNING. any how , thanks for kind suggestion , you guys are great and helpful ...
