Going nuts mysql installation
Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2003 9:48 pm
Ok well I think I've gone as far as I can with php & flatfiles.
So it seems a natural step to get into mysql, which means I have to run it on my machine. I have Apache & Php on a Windoze system, basicly.
Thing is... I can't seem to find a simple tutorial explaining everything... and I do mean everything.
I have no idea how it works. Where does mysql create these databases on your hard disk? How does php know where to find the program?
I have the installable windoze version of mysql on disk... installed it... but then what? what do I have to set?
I'm confused, have a slight headache. Don't really know where to start.
