I've installed mysql 5.5 to work with php.From the workbench I tried to connect first time,
impossible.I've allowed the program through the firewall,nothing.I read all the tutorials on the
subject, still I don't understand one thing. How do I set admin privileges if I cannot connect?
If I run the scripts on the command prompt I get error. Some tutorials talk about installing
Wamp or other software, why do I need more junk on my pc to have the damn mysql working?
And when they talk about the shell, where is the damn shell on the workbench?If I go to start, MySQL,MySQL Server 5.5.,Command Line Prompt it disappears immediately, so where do I type the script?
I like my sql express and management studio better, do I need mysql to work with php?
Getting frustrated.Thanks for your help.
