Getting MySQL to work...

**Rockonmetal** · 09-29-2007, 08:46 PM

I am using Netserver which worked fine. I was able to open up my control panel on localhost and get a makeshift database going until I restarted my computer because I installed some new software:
Now I get these errors when i get the welcome screen, *log in screen...* this:

Code:

PHP startup: unable to load dynamic library 'C:\netserver/bin/stable/php5/extensions/php_curl.dll' - operating system cannot run %1

Code:

PHP startup: unable to load dynamic library 'C:\netserver/bin/stable/php5/extensions/php_mcrypt.dll' - can't be found

Code:

PHP startup: unable to load dynamic library 'C:\netserver/bin/stable/php5/extensions/php_zip.dll' - can't be found

I looked where it said cannot be found and their there...
Thanks to anyone who helps

I don't have any experience with Netserver, but the easiest program yet I've ever come across to quickly setting up apache/php/mysql on your home PC is Bizzar. I see it's still available for download at Download.com: http://www.download.com/Bizzar-Serve...ml?tag=lst-0-1 , though note that the version I downloaded was version 1, with the current version listed as version 2 (not sure what has changed). Anyhow, I was literally up in seconds, no tinkering with anything needed.

Hello, I have been having problems with trying to get MySQL to work on my computer. I really want to learn how to make a login database, forum and stuff like that on my own... I just haven't been able to get these server programs working. I have tried Netserver, WAMP5, BizzarServer2, and XAMP. Netserver worked perfectly till I restarted my computer, then it gave me a whole bunch of errors and it won't load MySQL or Control Panel...

Thats the bunch of errors if you want to see them...
I have deleted the netserver folder in C:\ to see if it was interfereing with BizzardServer2... I want to try and get this to work so I can try this out...
When I used WAMP5 I got localhost but no Control Panel for phpMyAdmin
I used XAMP for like 5 minutes and I was totally confused... I need directions that are pretty detailed because I don't speak MySQL... Again pictures, links, to stuff will help me a lot and you will find yourself reading:
THANKS!
Instead of:
"???????"

Thanks to anyone who helps!

If you have one of these (rather ugly, in my opinion) programs do all the setup for you, it makes debugging very difficult. Why don't you just install it yourself? There are no end of guides out there.

I don't think I know how to install it... if someone could help me through to help me install it that would be great...

Well, in Linux it's usually one command, e.g. emerge apache php mysql. In Windows it's quite a bit trickier, but there's a guide here that should get you through it.
