I have:
PHP Version 5.0.1
MySQL 5.0.1
Apache 2.0.48
Winows XP Pro SP2
MySQL is working fine as best as I can see; I have tried the various samples
in the MySQL manual and I have executed the myTest sample provided with
MySQL. They all work.
However I can't get mysql_connect to work; when I try:
$conn = mysql_connect("localhost", "root");
I get:
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect.chm]: Can't connect to
MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)
The host and user should be correct; I have not changed anything such as
that after installation. The password should still be blank. However I have
tried many, many other combinations but nothing that works.
Is 10061 an error code? I can't find it in the PHP documentation.
