I have look in both FAQ and this forum, and tried a lot to get it to work, but I still get the error. Most of the aswers says change localhost to 127.0.0.1, mI still get the error. i am running windows Vista and explorer 8. Still when I start EasyPHP 1.8 it works ok. Please help.

On Windows Vista or above, an entry in the Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts file causes mysql_connect() connections to "localhost" to timeout and never connect. This happens on php 5.3 and above since it now uses mysql native driver which has changed it connection behavior compared to libmysql.dll in previous versions. It is not a PHP bug, but definitely a configuration issue for users on new windows systems.

To get around this, you must remove the entry like this:
::1 localhost

and make sure you still have:
127.0.0.1 localhost

Also, you could change the code to connect to the ip instead, but that is inconvenient if you have many web sites.

This issue occurs on Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008.]]> weimbos EasyPHP 6.0dev Fri, 23 Jul 2010 15:51:36 +0200 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147117/_subject_#msg-147117 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147117/_subject_#msg-147117
Can you try to replace "localhost" by "127.0.0.1", and if it is not enough, can you try as root password : "mysql" ?

I hope it will help you...]]> Amour EasyPHP 6.0dev Tue, 20 Jul 2010 23:23:21 +0200 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147116/_subject_#msg-147116 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147116/_subject_#msg-147116
I have tried: $link = mysql_connect("localhost", "root","") or die("Kunne ikke forbinde : " . mysql_error());

and

$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "root") or die("Kunne ikke forbinde : " . mysql_error());

same result: Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: [2002] Et forsøg på at oprette forbindelse mislykkedes, fordi den part, (trying to connect via tcp://localhost:3306) in ....

With default root user, phpMyAdmin is working ?
If yes, can you try root user with your scripts ?]]> Amour EasyPHP 6.0dev Tue, 20 Jul 2010 20:14:43 +0200 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147114/_subject_#msg-147114 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147114/_subject_#msg-147114
Furthermore I can se I have misplaced the question - it should have been in EasyPHP 5.3.2i instead - how can I move the question?]]> weimbos EasyPHP 6.0dev Tue, 20 Jul 2010 19:25:10 +0200 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147113/_subject_#msg-147113 http://www.easyphp.org/forums/15/147112/147113/_subject_#msg-147113
