MySQL is a database management system.

A database is a structured collection of data. It may be anything from a simple shopping list to a picture gallery or the vast amounts of information in a corporate network. To add, access, and process data stored in a computer database, you need a database management system such as MySQL Server. Since computers are very good at handling large amounts of data, database management systems play a central role in computing, as standalone utilities, or as parts of other applications.

Fill in the $username and the $password below and run this code:

<?php

$server = 'localhost';

$username = '';

$password = '';

$link = mysql_connect($server, $username, $password);
if (!$link) {
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
?>

If this doesn't work, all you can do is make certain you have the right values for $server, $username, and $password. The file you are running is on your C: drive. Are you sure there is a MySQL server with your username on the same machine as the script?

Make sure that your host, user, and password are correct!! (Check in your cpanel for host)
