I am trying to get Word Press working on a Windows computer running IIS and continue getting errors about MySQL not working properly. The PHP seems to be working since I see this error message and MySQL is setup and supposedly working with correct accounts and passwords, but it still gives this error. I am guessing I might need to somehow link IIS and MySQL but I have no clue.

Posted 6 years ago #Um, have you considered dumping IIS, and trying
XAMPP, from:http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html
You'll have much better success in the long run.

If you search the forums here, you may find some information on that. But really, we're here to support your WordPress installation, not the building of the server!
[tip: hit google. I've been down your trail with IIS and you'll have to do some searching to get PHP and MySQL all working happily with IIS]
