khaaliq Posted December 2, 2002 Posted December 2, 2002 I am trying to install OSC on my windows system but I get "unable to connect to database". :( I created the database and checked all of the parameters that I can think of and no luck. Is anyone else running EasyPHP? Can you tell me how to fix this? I have no database username and password so I left these fields blank.
jficarra Posted December 3, 2002 Posted December 3, 2002 I have no database username and password so I left these fields blank. I'm not familiar with installing EasyPHP, but I would make sure that the database connection section at the bottom of /catalog/includes/configure.php is correct. On my test installation of MySQL on Win2k, the DB_SERVER_USERNAME is 'mysql', the password is blank, and DB_DATABASE should be catalog. Try setting the DB_SERVER_USERNAME to 'mysql' and leave the password blank. -Jim
khaaliq Posted December 3, 2002 Author Posted December 3, 2002 but I would make sure that the database connection section at the bottom of /catalog/includes/configure.php is correct. I don't have a file configure.php. I am running version 2.1, could that be why? So far no luck.
mattice Posted December 3, 2002 Posted December 3, 2002 Try 2.2-CVS... 2.1 is no longer supported really... hardly anybody focusses on that anymore. 2.2 is better anyway. "Politics is the art of preventing people from taking part in affairs which properly concern them"
khaaliq Posted December 3, 2002 Author Posted December 3, 2002 Thanks! Can you tell me how I can upgrade to 2.2? I would hate to start from scratch :wink:
