bookpage Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I just tried to install Uniform Server and can not get it to work. When I type in http://localhost/a/ for the URL I get "Unable to Connect". There is a local drive W, but it has question mark over the icon when looking at it in Windows Explorer. When I tried to run Server_Start.bat, I get "The disk W is busy. Use the start.bat [disk letter]" I do not have a start.bat in the Uniform Server folder. Can someone help me out? Give me a suggestion as what to do next? Thank you,bookpage Quote
Ric Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 One interesting thing I noticed in your post was this link: http://localhost/a/ That’s related to an older version of US that I am not familiar with! Have you downloaded the new version of US (3.5-Apollo), see you are using XP hence you should have no problem. Have you checked this page: http://center.uniformserver.com/us_35/us35_intro_1.html Worth looking at; Oops just checked that link it is backwards compatible. As a reference point download the new version and give that a bash. If your download was version 3.5-Apollo then come back and give me a bash. All the bestRic Quote

All the bestRic Yes, I have version 3.5-Apollo and no, I have not look at the page link you gave. Will read it. I rebooted and now it seems to be working okay. But, how I have a new problem. When trying to change password for MySQL, I get this: Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at W:\home\admin\www\mqsetup.php:1) in W:\home\admin\www\mqsetup.php on line 5» MySQL Server Configuration I got the 'http://localhost/a/' from http://www.devx.com/webdev/Article/22169 "From a command prompt, run start.bat and you will then be able to access the Web server's administration screen at http://localhost/a/ (see Figure 1)." Thank you for all your help,bookpage Quote
Ric Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Thanks for the feedback. I checked out the link you provided and found the article was written for US version 3.1 there have been major changes between the versions, 3.5-Apollo make the whole set-up easier. If you followed the instructions for changing MySQL password from that article you probably have killed the database. No major problem, I would recommend deleting what you have, extract a fresh copy of 3.5 and follow these instructions to change the password: http://center.uniformserver.com/home_webse...e/security.html EnjoyAll the bestRic Quote
