Hello, I recently posted this as a reply to another topic and it was suggested i start a new one. To recap i'm new to Uniform Server and thought it the best choice for my purposes. I'm new to webserving and want to set one up for the sole purpose of running a phpBB for a gaming guild. I've installed the Uniform Server software and followed the instructions. I am able to access my index.html file, as well as the test.php file i created. However i am unable to access my testmysql.php file. It was suggested that the problem might be with the code of my test file. Perhaps someone could recommend a simple test code i can make a file of for testing. I am able to access phpMyadmin without any difficulties, and it currently has the databases "test", "phpmyadmin", "mysql", and the one i created for my forum "phpbb". When i try to run the phpbb install it gives me a database error that says: Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'myrouter's ip' (10061) in D:\webserver\phpBB2\db\mysql4.php on line 48 Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in D:\webserver\phpBB2\db\mysql4.php on line 330 Warning: mysql_errno(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in D:\webserver\phpBB2\db\mysql4.php on line 331 phpBB : Critical Error Could not connect to the database The testmysql.php file give me this error when i try to access it: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_DNUMBER in D:\webserver\testmysql.php on line 5 Line 5 consists of : mysql_connect("router ip without the quotations"); Any idea what i'm doin wrong? Thanks
