Hello, I have been long a MS SQL server user, but I want to learn something from MySQL and PHP. So I tried to install PHP and MySQL to my box (Windows 2000 NT server). However, I couldnÂt configure MySQL after I run installation wizard successfully. Either version MySQL 4.1 or MySQL5.0 which I downloaded from http://dev.MySQL.com/downloads wonÂt work on my box. When I tried to configure, it stopped each time at the step: Apply security setting. The error message is: The security settings could not be applied to the database because the connection has failed with the following error: Error Nr. 1045 Access denied for user Âroot @ Âlocalhost (using password: YES). The rest error message suggested me to check firewall on my box to open the connection, but I donÂt think I have a firewall on my box. I do have an IIS and MS SQL server running on. There is a port option step during the configuration process, it suggested port 3306, but I am not sure I have such a port available. There is only a port 80 for TCP/IP which I can found under Administrator/IIS management. I tried more then 10 times installing, uninstalling, configuring and re-configuring, but no luck. I am wondering if I should install connector/ODBC to solve this problem. I am stuck. I do appreciate if anybody has a clue for this issue. Thanks a lot!
