Setting Up A My SQL Database

[Rockonmetal]

Ok, some people might remember this post, I BROUGHT IT BACK TO LIFE!!!! MUAHAHAHAHA!! ok enough with the drama... heres what I got:
Computer with wamp5...
Internet connection
Dummies book for PHP & MySQL Everyday Apps
Thats all i got...
I tried to do this on my own before and I failed horribly
I am unfortunitly one of those people who ask for step by step directions *meaning a lot of detail in english not the language i attempt to learn*
Thanks!

Unfortunitly that link was not very helpful because it made no sense at all... and its not making any sense... just wat are the steps so i can get a MySQL database to work... I have WAMP5 on my computer and the only thing i did was run the installer. When i click phpadmin or SQLiteManager it does nothing... how do one of those to work... If i need to download other stuff please give the links to it...

You may need to reinstall WAMP5 if the links and whatnot aren't working. To my understanding, MySQL is installed when you install WAMP5; if it doesn't, then you may need to redownload the installer and try again or even try downloading another WAMP package (such as NetServer or Xampp).

Hope this helps.

Note i have not read the manual or documentation to do the install... would that be a problem?

[Rockonmetal]

I know that netserver gets me the phpadmin but I can't view my site from the www folder...

1. do u see something like this in ur control panel? (see attached file named pic1.jpg)

2. do u see something like this in the lower right side of ur computer? (see attached file named pic2.jpg). emphasis on the middle icon.

yeah, i see both of those when i have wamp5 on... but i can't get to phpadmin or sql lite...
