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?
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.
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.
Hello! I have win7 64bit too, but web browser can't reach the server. Apache and my sql working localhost uncommented in ect directory, when I tryed ping 127.0.0.1 I got 0% loss so server is reachible, what can be wrong more?
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...
I instaled admin update, firewall fixed to allow all conections, browser still could not connect to server even if I disable antivirus, but rest is works I meen apache and mysql
