I installed MYSQL 5 along with PHP and apache 2 as part of the XAMPP stack put out by ApacheFriends. I am putting together a few CMS sites and think the product is great.
I don't. IMHO anything that hides stuff you SHOULD know to use the software/hardware you have its just a bad thing. I value the effort of ApacheFriends, their product works great and its a fast solution when you don't wanna go deep into configuration, but not an option for someone that needs to learn.
Obviously, I installed everything as admin on my local machine. MYSQL is running as a service. I don't know what this means, but I know it is a fact.
Well, you should know, its the very knowledge that lead you to this kind of error/misconfiguration. Windows has services, they're started when windows starts or on demand, accourding to the way its configured, starting MySQL as a service ensures that it will start as soon as windows does, and will keep running in the background till you stop it or it crashes.
(I am getting these from the Report in WinMYSQLAdmin)
Not a very good source. Log into MySQL using mysql console application /<mysqldir>/bin/mysql using your name and password and issue an "show variables like 'LOG';" command. I tested in my own server here. Simply adding this: [mysqld] log To my.cnf created an <hostname>.log on my "data" directory logging queries. Make sure that XAMPP is not overwritting your config or using it from somewhere else. Remove the filename, or give it a full path.
