HELP! Dreamweaver Expert Needed: Database
I can link to my database (when I click 'test', it says connect successful), and I am fairly sure I setup my virtual server correct. I followed all the instructions that were given in the "how to create a php environment tutorial"
In the two tests suggested, I failed only the date.time one, though I think that's because I haven't setup my php.ini timezone yet.
With all that said, for some reason I am having trouble with binding.
Here are the exact steps to better illustrate my problem:
I create a new connection under the "database" tab.
I then click the "binding" tab and press the "+" sign thing.
It reads the database under my connection correctly and displayed all the correct fields that I created.
HOWEVER, when I press the "test" button. It just displays the "unknown error" error message.
I am currently using XP Home and Dreamweaver CS4. I have setup the whole server thing using the latest AppServ (2.6.0 p.s. I don't understand what's the difference between that and 2.5.10 except that one seems to be newer... but both are released at the same time...), which I believe included:
Apache 2.2.8
PHP 6.0.0-dev
MySQL 6.0.4-alpha
phpMyAdmin-2.10.3
I am very new at making dynamic webpages, (in fact, my second day at it) It would be very helpful if the suggestions given are not in "computer terms" (since I understand about less than half of them. I don't even know what I am doing with the whole server thing except to follow every single instructions and tutorials that I can find.)
Thanks for the help.
