hi,

how do i locate or create the database for b2evo? after that am i supposed to see it in the mysql admin console?

i have this function call problem of mysql_connect()... not working... and i only see a "test" database in mysql admin console. i'm really stuck and i hope the installation instruction can be more descriptive.

appreciate any help.

Do you have phpMyAdmin installed on your server? You would be able to view, create, and edit databases with it if MySQL is not working properly.

i tried using running index.php from myphpadmin but i got the following errors:

cannot load MySQL extension,
please check PHP Configuration.

what is the problem?

the problem could be that you don't have an php-enabled, nor mysql-enabled server or that mysql is not started.

Are you working on your local machine ?

yes, i believe i have mysql started properly... i see this "traffic light icon" at my task tray and when i double-click on it, it's the mysql admin UI...

the thing is that when i go to the database tab, there's only a default "test" database created... that's why i was asking how can i create a b2evo database or does it come with the download....

in fact, i tried re-installing everything using yellowtip web server package... still doesn't work.

yes, i'm running on my local PC with IIS 5.0

thanks very much for any help.

You do have to create an empty database
normally yellow-tip does that for you
(can't you see a database called 'b2evolution' ?
If not, create one your own in phpmyadmin
creating the tables and stuff, that what the install.php from b2e does for you, but you have to create an amty database.

hi,

when i tried install.php, the following error occurred.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Htdocs\b2evolution\blogs\b2evocore\_functions.php on line 35

can anyone tell me what's wrong? i assume mysql service is running cos i run <mysqld> in dos prompt to start it manually... but the funny thing is that whenever i tried using mysqladmin to start the service, it always tell me that it fails, try after 30sec or so... any advice on this.

appreciate any help.
