Hi Friends

I am a web designer and very comfortable with ASP vbScript, Access
ADODB. But sometime back a client wanted to redesign his site(PHP) and
add some DB functionality. So I started my tryst with PHP and MySQL.
After a whole month of dogged Struggle I was able to set up PHP under
Windows IIS and run it. But there was no luck with MySQL. Through 7
months I had installed and uninstalled it more than 20 times but could
not get it to work, formatted my machine and gave it fresh, tried
everything I googled out. But it throws the same Error

**Cannot add as a Service**

..and PHP never detects MySQL otherwise.

The package I tried was mySql 5.0.77 - win32 zip. that was around 50
mb. but later I found packages that is as large as 121 mb. So confused
on that ground also. Which one is the right package (for Windows XP
SP2)... and what is the fool-proof steps to get it run?

Please advise

Thanks in advance

Nandita
