Hello all together,
I installed PHP and MySQL on my box (running apache). When I try to
install Joomla, the MySQL Database is recognized by the precheck of the
install script. But when I try to connect to the database I get the
following error msg:
Unable to connect to the database: Could not connect to MySQL
I'm a newbie using BSD. I tried really hard, but a simple mistake could
be possible.
I added the following 3 packets, installed MySQL and set the symbolic links:
mysql-server-5.0.51ap1.tgz
php5-core-5.2.6.tgz
php5-mysqli-5.2.6.tgz
I start mysql using the command:
/usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe &
I'm also able open the DB using "mysql -u root -p".
Any ideas?
Jan
