Apache And Mysql


Recommended Posts


What version have you downloaded?

Have you bothered to read the accompanying documentation?

And you need a certain amount of knowledge on how servers work.... it can't be TAUGHT over the course of forum posts...

First read the info that comes with it for config. Otherwise, no matter what amount of helpful replies you get, you still may not understand what's going on.

Just go to apache homepage download apache binaries for your platform - win32 I guess.

Get version 2.0.53 which is the latest bug-fixed version.

Then from the mysql homepage, get the binary installer of the MySQL database server. It would be called the MSI installer or so, for windows. Go for version 4.1.10 which is the newest. To manage your db, you might need either the windows-based MySQL-Administrator (or phpMyAdmin for which you need to download and configure PHP).

Once you have got it up and running, you'll instantly get attacked if its on the public internet. Read up the config files to find out how to secure it. Then read how to install web applications....

First, do you understand the general concepts of a Relational Database (RDBMS) and SQL language? If not you won't get anywhere with MySQL.

Search for "Relational Database", "RDBMS" and "SQL Language"

If you understand the general material in these links then you are ready to get specific with implementing MySQL.

What are you trying to use MySQL for?

What specific problem are you having? "It doesn't work" is much too vague. Phrase like "when I try to "X" I am expecting "Y" but instead I get "Z"". Include any error messages shown.

I will try to help if you can be more specific.

He's not got anywhere with it yet.

He's just started, got a vague idea of where to get it, read nothing, and is stumbling to install and start it.

There's nothing you can tell him or do about it until he reads the documentation officially available.

@n00b

The documentation can be a little overwhelming when starting out. Sometimes it helps to just have someone point you in the right direction. That is why I tell him to ask some specific questions to get him thinking about what he needs to do.
