Hello
Please excuse my ignorance, I am very, very new to databases and escpecially
MySql.
I have a couple of questions that I would be most grateful if someone could
answer for me.
1. I have a Cobalt Raq4 with mysql 3.22.32 installed. I also have a Win98
machine with 3.23.33 installed. I have managed to set up a simple test db on
my windows machine and pull out data with ASP, using PWS. I have also
managed to set up a simple db on the Raq but have noticed that the database
file extensions are different. The raq has .ISD, .ISM and .FRM where as the
windows box has .MYD, .MYI and .FRM.
Does this mean that I can't design the DB on my windows box and upload it to
work on the Raq?
If it can be done can someone please advise me on how to do this.
2. I don't seem to be able to make a connection using the ASP admin pages on
the Raq. I keep getting "can't open connection". Can someone enlighten me
please, I have followed the instructions very closely. It seems that
everything on the Raq is different to what is stated in the MySql manual?
i.e running mysqld gives me command not found but it will run with
safe_mysqld, the data is stored in a different dir etc.
I am sorry if I am being simple but all I want to do is set up a basic site
that will get info from a db using chilisoft ASP.
I thank you in advance and once again please excuse my ignorance.
Best Regards
Lee
