Reconfiguring PHP with MySQL in WinXp

[Ben]

Hi all,

I used PHP installer binary to install PHP. Then I installed MySQL.
Now how do I reconfigure PHP to connect to MySQL? In PHP installer, it
does not provide any options for mysql support. Is it possible to do
it with PHP binary installer or do I need to reinstall PHP from source
code?

Hope someone can help me!
Thanx
Ben

Head over to http://internetmaster.com/installtutorial/ which is a walk
through on setting up PHP/MySQL/Apache on windows XP.

I think there's nothing wrong with crossposting... As far as I
understand, crossposting just saves one copy of a msg... So I'll
probably stick to it as it is a convenient way to deliver my messages
to multiple newsgroups targetting different experts... Since my
problem was about reconfiguring PHP with MySQL, I think it is relevant
to both PHP and MySQL groups... Even after posting to so many groups,
I just managed to get one reply! Anyway, I already found a way to do
it and thanx for the link you sent...

Nice. Split over 10 pages, though!

It would be good if someone did the same for Apache 2 and PHP 5.

Hello Ben,

I think you should use a PHP+MySQL binary like PHPhome, which
includes all the connection between PHP, MySQL and Apache, and I think
this one is best choice if you want to run php on WinXP. It's stable,
and when I program in php, the last thing I expect, that my program are
about to freeze.
