Hi,

I installed the new version of EasyPHP on my Windows 7 64 Bit PC, but it is still not working.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-5.3.3" and also "C:\EasyPHP-5.3.3" are not working.
Starting at Admin does not help.
Is there any other solution?

Apache and MySQL have been started but all my sites aren't displayed correctly.

Maybe you websites are not made for PHP 5.3.3 ?

What are the obtained errors ?

I'm having a similar issue, the apache server is working fine, it seems to be an issue with the mysql / php. Even the wordpress I downloaded from here is giving errors.

"Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: [2002] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not (trying to connect via tcp://localhost:3306) " Is the error given in the wordpress.

with my phpbb3 fully updated, is having issues connecting to the mysql. I've tried using a standard php file with no database connect. So from what I can tell there is an issue with the updated mysql connecting.

Instead of use "localhost" host with MySQL, can you try with "127.0.0.1" ?

I'm on Win7 64-bit.

My HTML and PHP-only sites work great, but the ones with MySQL generally just sit on loading forever.

So that I didn't have to change my dbconnect variables, I created a user on the phpMyAdmin with matching credentials to the one I use on my server, and the database name is the same. Not sure what to do.

Changing localhost to 127.0.0.1 worked, but is there a way to make it work with localhost? I'd really prefer not to have to change the variables on all the sites I'm testing with this.

Yes, it's a Vista and 7 issue...

If you want, you can uncomment (remove #) # 127.0.0.1 localhost
This into your hosts file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc)

Maybe doesn't concern the ping issue, but i had the same problem and i figured out so...
Try to
- install the administrator update 1.
- check the MSQL password (in config.inc.php file) if matches with the one set during joomla installation(may be blank already).
- reach your site folder from EasyPHP panel clicking the "black E" then "Administrator(Ctrl+A)" and then (on web browser) your folder site.

Unfortunately for me there is another problem that awaits, after solved this one...

Hope this help.

Your 127.0.0.1 ping is OK ? If yes, perfect. If no, you can try to disable your firewall ;)
