Hello Listreaders, I'm new on this list and i'm trying to get a mysql database working on my workstation. I work with the Powerpack distribution from Linux Mandrake edition 8.0. For the moment I don't have installed an ethernet card for server facillities. I do everything from the KDE desktop environment, so I don't use the Linux basisc command line. I used the book Mysql from Paul Dubois for my studies on mysql. I'm that far that I can create and use scripts to load my database. Next thing I want to do is trying to use phpMyAdmin to be able to create html scripts for loading the database. So I downloaded this program and put the unzipped files as directory phpMyAdmin_2.2.6 on my home directory.
Now I did change the script config.inc.php3 as followed: $cfgPmaAbsoluteUri = 'http://localhost/home/myname/phpMyAdmin_2.2.6/' ScfgServers [$i] ['localhost'] string (for localhost) ScfgServers [$i] [''] string (for port) ScfgServers [$i] [''] string (for socket) ScfgServers [$i] ['tcp'] string (for connect_type) ScfgServers [$i] ['root'] string (for controluser) ScfgServers [$i] ['mypassword'] string (for controluser password ScfgServers [$i] ['config'] string (for authentication) ScfgServers [$i] ['root'] string (for user) ScfgServers [$i] ['mypassword'] string (for user password) ScfgServers [$i] [''] string (for only_db) ScfgServers [$i] [''] string (for verbose) ScfgServers [$i] [''] string (for bookmarkdb) ScfgServers [$i] [''] string (for relation) Now I save this script and entered to Konqueror as browser and type as URL http://localhost/home/myname/phpMyAdmin/index.php3 Now I get the message: NOT FOUND The requested URP /home/myname/phpMyAdmin_2.2.6/index.php3 was not found on this server ---------------------------------- Apache Advanced ExtranetServer/1/3/19 Server at localhost localdomain Port 80 When I change the URL into http://localhost: 3306/home/myname/phpMyAdmin/index.php3 I get the message: Connection to host localhost is broken What I'm doing wrong?
