  • Seems PHP5 isn’t allowing MYSQL to work properly, so I went back to PHP 4.3.8 and all is well (built into that version).

    oops.. my password messed up and didn’t work before. I’m the Anonymous above.

    I was having problems installing with PHP5 so I went back to v4.3.8 and got past the install.php prob, but now I’m getting the same error as you, 403 at login.
    er.. what do you mean by “Somehow I didn’t have the index.php file installed”?
    I DO have it in my wordpress dir so not sure if you mean yours was missing or…?

    on php5, you have to manually add the mysql extension (copy php_mysql.dll to the extension dir, copy libmysql.dll to %SYSTEMROOT%) and that’s just about it.

    I tried putting the libmysql.dll into the systemroot (c:\windows in my case) and have php_mysql.dll in the ‘ext’ directory under my php dir AND uncommenting line “extension=php_mysql.dll” in the php.ini file but I still get the error:
    “Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘./php_mysql.dll’ – The specified module could not be found. in Unknown on line 0 “
    Why can it still not find the dll? Is the extension dir ‘ext’ correct or does it have to be named something else? OR do I still have to change something else in the php.ini to make mysql work?

    BAH, spoke too soon, I still get a BLANK page after running install.php even the new one *sigh*
    I had not created the wp-config.php file yet, but after I do I still get the blank page. I’m using PHP5 and IIS on Windows XP. Anyone have any other suggestions?

    Yup, I had the same problem with a Blank install.php with PHP 5 until I used the lastest version of WordPress (I.E. the Nightly Build from Aug 4th).

    Heya!
    GREAT to hear it’s working for you. I’m trying to do teh EXACT same thing BUT *I* get the 500 error on the install.php file. Seems IIS isn’t letting me run php:
    Here’s the browser error:
    ***
    The page cannot be displayed
    There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed.

    -HOW did you get the install.php to work?
    -How do you run PHP and get IIS to allow you to run PHP scripts?
    (I simply just dbl-clicked the executeable but that must not be enough)?
    I imagine I have set something in IIS OR in PHP but no idea what…
    :-/
