Hello, I am just getting started with MySql and PHP (previously was just designing web pages). I am very new to database-based web development.
I installed IIS and PHP. I thought I installed MySQL as well but I can't tell if it is working or not. I was told if I make a phpinfo.php file and open it my browser I would see. Supposedly if there is a listing for MySQL in the list that would mean it is running. There is no listing of MySQL there. There are listings for other PHP items however which I guess means PHP is running. I saw that in the bin folder of MySQL there is a program called MySQLadmin. Whenever I try to run that a small black screen flashes momentarily on my screen (kind of looking like a command line window) and then it disappears without giving me a chance to even see what it is. Actually this happens with every program in the bin folder. Would someone please tell me what I need to do to get MySQL to work? Right now I am just trying to set things up so that I can start learning PHP. Please help. Thank you.
