    I am using cygwin for mysql, httpd, and php in /srv/www/htdocs/wordpress.
    I created a initial database for user and passwd, but no tables and can login via commandline.

    Not sure how to proceed to get wordpress to create the database login.
    define( ‘DB_NAME’, ‘wpdb’ );

    /** MySQL database username */
    define( ‘DB_USER’, ‘root’ );

    /** MySQL database password */
    define( ‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘xxxxx’ );

    /** MySQL hostname */
    define( ‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’ );

    /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
    define( ‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’ );

    /** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
    define( ‘DB_COLLATE’, ” );

    The DB login should already exist. Can you log into phpMyAdmin using the credentials in wp-config.php? You should be able to. Verify the database you created has all privileges for user ‘root”. All WP then needs to do is create the tables in the existing DB.

    I don’t think the database connection or login is the problem, there’s a PHP error for some reason. Locate the server’s error log location and check it for clues about what went wrong.
