IIS and MySQL

[karlovac]

I've searched this forum, and found messages suggesting that I can use IIS with MySQL.

So far I've installed MySQL (unsuccessfully) on my Win2K machine at home. I was beginning to think that it didn't work because I'm using IIS, not Apache.

So is MySQL compatible with IIS 5?

If not, can I install both Apache and IIS on my computer?

Thanks in advance

IIS and mySQL are compatible, I run win2K and IIS 5 they work fin together.

I just installed MySQL on my W2K Pro machine with IIS 5.0. I am assuming you ran the setup out of the directory and it created all the sub-directories. Go to the \bin directory and run Mysqladmin.exe (it will flash up a DOS box for a second). Then run the winmysqladmin.exe. This should be it except for creating the Nuke database and then loading the nuke tables and such. That is accomplished like the nuke portal install suggests for Linux except you use
mysql nuke < c:\inetpub\wwwroot\php\sql\nuke.sql **substite your directory path for mine

Run this from a DOS box out of the MySQL\bin directory.

Now you are set to play with PHP-Nuke assuming you installed PHP first. 🙂

Out of the past replies to your post, i guess im going to have to provide a
few clarifications here..

1), your problem is error_reporting is set to high. in your php.ini file,
make sure it is as
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
This reports all errors, but notices (i.e. warning such as undefined
constant/variable/etc. if you still get the errors above, you have a lot
more problems that your going to have to slap FB in the head with a bat to
fix, but i doubt he will anyways.

2). This is NOT a MySQL problem.

3). PHP Nuke runs just fine on Win32. PHP is a godsend like that, its 100%
perfectly cross platform, almost as much as java.

4) Dont change your security settings to on your path to a low IIS process,
i have no idea why anyone would dare think this would solve a problem that
has to do with a variable being used before its defined. the same person
also said that its a mysql problem, which there is NO SHAREWARE MySQL
anymore. which is even funnier because you expressed "i installed ...
apache 1.3.14, PHP 4.0.4pl1, MySQL 3.23.30-gamma " and he's saying change
IIS settings, which you dont even have installed.

As for functions that dont work on Win32, there are about 40-50 functions
that dont, the other 2050 functions in php 4.0.4pl1 work on any and all
platforms that you can compile php on.
