I have apache 2.0 Running ok.
Php 5.2.5 Running just fine.

What i want is to install Mysql 5.0

What i want to do is create a forum (phpbb3).
Also a login database so users can login.

What i have is a website for myspace codes and junk but what i would like to do is create a place where people can login Comment, Message, Submit Myspace codes. etc.

I know doing all this is no easy task.
But i have lots of time on my hands and i am willing to learn so lets dive in.

When installing Mysql
What do i have to do to the my.ini for php?
Note that php is installed at ' C:\Program Files\PHP\ ' .

Do i have to add anything to apache when installing Mysql?


Litterally give me a step by step. I am new to this. I have tryed getting help here before but no success.

Please Do not asume i know anything about Mysql because i pretty much don't.
I know Rather little of PHP. Just the basics.

Thank you ahead of time for any help.

I have tryed using that.

It doesn't seem to work. For me that is.

Could someone describe what all that means..

I used the Mysql 5.0 windows msi.


But now what?

I honestly think you would have better luck searching for tutorials or buying a book. There is plenty of documentation out there. If you have plenty of time you may want to start reading the manual from the first page. There's a log of good information in it.
