Having Problem Intalling MySQL and Simple Machines (SMF)
If this is an inappropriate post or if I've posted in the wrong place, my humblest apologies. Please explain my error to me and I'll desist. The Problem: Although I can run phpinfo.php in Firefox at /localhost/ and see configuration options for Apache and PHP, no options for MySQL display. Also, I c...

Using PHP with a MySQL Database
Howdy All! Been awhile, but I'm still just as ignorant as I was the last time you saw me. I need help using a MySQL database I've created. The database contains the names of all my high school classmates along with other information. Here are some things that I'd like to do: -- Whenever anyone wants...

LOAD DATA LOCAL
Hi Scottayy! Yes, I realize I can upload the table structure dump but there is no data in it. The table exists as the dump demonstrates. What I need to do is to populate its fields from the plain text file that contains my list of ~500 names. I don't know how to upload a *.txt file using PAM. Is tha...

LOAD DATA LOCAL
Hi timvw! Thanks for the response. I understand what you are saying; however, GoDaddy gives me no way to FTP (or transfer otherwise) the *.txt file to the host. I thought the whole purpose of the 'LOCAL' clause in the LOAD DATA statement was to allow the server side app to issue a read on the local ...

LOAD DATA LOCAL
Hi feyd! No, I don't understand your statement. In this case I truly don't know if I'm running anything on my local (client) machine other than the browser. From the way I invoke PAM via the browser, I assume that PAM is executing on the host server side. From reading the MySQL documentation, I unde...

Client Side Function in LOAD DATA
Reading the MySQL documentation, it clearly states that inclusion of the term LOCAL after LOAD DATA and before INFILE sets up execution of the update file reads on the client side. The data are then passed over the connection (in this case the Internet) and the table loading is done on the server si...

Need Help with LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE in MySQL
I'm trying to load a new, empty table from a tab separated fields file created in MSWord and saved as plain text with carriage return and line feed (CR/LF) after each line of data. Where there is no data in a field '\N' is placed to indicate a null value and is properly followed by either a tab char...

A Dumb Noob Question - Will MySQL Store jpegs?
Realizing that I'm a noob (despite advanced years and despite years of mainframe experience), I realize that there is probably an answer to this somewhere. So far, I haven't phrased the question correctly for Google to point me to an answer. The closest I've come is to a cryptic statement that the i...

Thanks, Again, Guys!
Yes, I want to get up and running with a database quickly; but I also want to learn how to handle PHP and MySQL. I was hoping that I could do the former with phpMyAdmin on my hosted server and the latter, over time, on a server running locally. (I downloaded and installed Apache -- at least I think ...

Not Sure What You're Asking, jrd
First there's this in the "documentation.html" file: Setup script usage Since 2.8.0 phpMyAdmin comes with a setup script that can help you with creating configuration. This script is located in scripts folder: scripts/setup.php. Its usage is quite simple. You follow the dialogs and this sc...

Thank You, Both!
Really appreciate the advice. My intended use of phpMyAdmin was to get something functional on my site faster. I agree with agtlewis that there is nothing like mastery of a tool. feyd, I found and read the documentation.txt that came with phpMyAdmin. It mentioned that there would be a dialog when ru...

phpMyAdmin and MySQL
You guys have been so helpful, I'm probably gonna wear out my welcome fast! Anyway -- I read a good tutorial on MySQL basics and want to get started. I have an account on GoDaddy which provides me with MySQL databases. I've done a couple of PHP tutorials (and am not above appropriating code out of t...
