jcavazosHi,
I installed created a web application directory for wordpress, which is where all the files exist, http://localhost/web_wordpress and I installed mySQL in the C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0 directory. I named the password for mysql as sa. I created the wp-config.php from the wp-config-sample.php like the instructions said and here's the code that's in the wp-config.php file:
<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress'); // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', 'Username'); // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'Password'); // ...and password
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value
// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
$table_prefix = 'wp_';
// Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
// Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to 'de'
// to enable German language support.define ('WPLANG', '');
/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
?>
PHP is running great, I'm not sure if mySQL is running or what? I see mysqld-nt.ext running in the Windows Task Manager, so I'm assuming it's working. Am I doing something wrong? I've explained pretty much everything that I've done. I'm running IIS 5.1 and Windows XP Pro. I also have the PHP directory located in the C:\php directory. If anyone could help, I would appreciate it. And of course it gives me this error: "Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL which is required for WordPress." when I try to access the index.php file in the root directory of the wordpress directory. When I launch the http://localhost/web_wordpress/wp-admin/install.php file, it gives me a "No input file specified." error. Not sure what it means.
If anyone could please help, that would be great.
Thanks,
Jaime
