Here's my situation. I'm trying to run a php based web forum I'm using Apache HTTP server 2.0.51 with php 5.0.1 installed as a module and MYSQL 4.1.5 gamma release. I'm releativly new to the php and the newesr release of mysql. I managed to get the php installed correctly and it works just fine. but as far as my sql I have no clue how to correctly make a database and then set up the installer in Invision Power Board 2.0.0 Final. I tried using the test database with the default passworld with mysql but each time it simply dosn't take and it says it can't access the database. If somebody could walk me through the correct steps that would be great. Thanks in advance

Just to be more clear with my problem the installer returns this error when i type all the info in the installer Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\2p0p0\upload\ips_kernel\class_db_mysql.php on line 112
Hopefully it'll help someone out. thanx

your php don't have the mysql module, thus it wont recognize any mysql related functions -> mysql_connect()

Like Laler said; mysql isnt shipped with the installer php5.01. You can either install the version of php Laler suggested, or you can take a look here: faq php5.02 no mysql (question 2)
good luck

You should also be aware that not all message board systems work well with php5 as it is still too new. I can't speak for Invision, but phpBB would have problems and is unsupported by the developers if the user has php5.
