Re: Cannot connect to MySQL with PHP 4.1.1

This may sound silly, but, make sure MySQL is running and that you can connect from the command prompt. ? Other than that, I dont know because I am still using 4.0.6. Good luck with it, and post back when you figure it out! I'd like to know. Nix www.aeontrek.com "Egil Helland" <egil@egil.net> wrote in message news:20020301101355.DEIW355.mta02@workhorse... For some reason, after I upgraded to 4.1.1, I am not able to connect to MySQL DB sources anymore. AFAIK I have set up the ini file like I should, there are no differences in the IIS config since the 4.0.5 version I have been running here was installed. Anyone familiar with this? I have seen hundreds of these errors all over the web, but I have not found a solution to the problem yet. I am tired of searching around the web for something that is probably trivial :) I have not upgraded my MySQL install, only php. The codeline that does not get through is: mysql_connect($host,$user,$password) or die ('Could not connect'); The output I get is: Warning: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) in ************ on line 77 Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) in ************* on line 77 Could not connect Regards, Egil -=// Egil Helland / IKON AS - MCSE, Internet, Intranet mailto:egil@egil.net http://egil.net file://=-
