HOWTO: install mySQL, mySQLAdministrator, PHP5 using IIS

Post by stryderr »

i'm an absolute newb with all of these stuff.. i dont even know if i'm in the right section.. these is also the first time i joined in a forum so please help me.. :D

i tried to install mySQL using these instruction on these link http://www.analysisandsolutions.com/code/mybasic.htm and install PHP using the msi installer using the IIS server i installed from my WindowsXP SP1 OS.. i'm sure i got all the instructions right.. well, with maybe just with the mySQL.. but my PHP isn't working.. i cannot open any php file i have even the test.php.. and after installing both.. i cannot run my yahoo messenger and download manager anymore.. it gives an error about port settings stuff..

i haven't tried to install both again after my hard disk crashed and now that i have freshly installed my OS again.. but i dont want to have the same problems again by trying what i've already done with mistakes..

here is my favor now: can someone please give me a detailed instruction on how to install mySQL v4.1, mySQL Administrator v1.0.21 or phpMyAdmin [which is best?], and PHP5 on an IIS Server 5.1 i guess.. :D .. PLEASE.. :P

and please add information too about how will i test if it is all working and how to configure it to run much better.. :D..

sorry if i ask too much for a start.. maybe bacause i really am a starter.. :P

thnx' in advance !
