PHP SQL DataBase Connection error

[Hung Kuen Kung Fu]

I have built a database using mysql. I also have php 5 installed. I am
running ISS on my local machine on Win XP Pro. When I create a form in
dreamweaver MX and then try tp create a connection to the database I use
localhost, root, and my password, and the database name and I get an
'Unexpected Error' Is there something I am doing wrong? It seems like all my
ducks are in order. Could there be a configuration problem between MYSQL and
ISS? Thanks, Darren

Hi,
Are you sure you have the php_mysql.dll extension uncommented in the
c:\windows\php.ini file?

You might want to check this technote for more details:

Well, I tried to run the Dreamweaver MX 2004 updater and it tells me that
Dreamweaver does not exist in the folder? (yeah it does!). I am not sure what
got hooped here. I am lost. The articles are, for the most part, over my head
as I am teaching this stuff to myself. Any other suggestions from anyone?
Thanks Darren

Thanks for the info. If I install php 5 will this solve the issue? I
installed MYSQL and IIS on a Win Xp Pro lptop and tried the same thing again
and I received a different error. Perhaps I am creating my form wrong. I
don't know. Anyway, do you think PHP 5 will help? Thanks alot for your
insight. Darren
