Hi there! Just got the PHP version 4.0 and am quite new in the field. In order to do the MySQL install, I opened the software directory directly without using Windows Explorer. Everything went fine, until I tried to create the test database in DOS. Instead, it immediately prompts the Connection window. When I cancel, the following message appear: "Connect to server 'localhost' failed.... error: can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)". When I telnet it states that the connection failed. I am working on Windows 95. What to do? Should I uninstall? How? I worry it messes up the machine... THX!! Liane
