Please somebody help I think i' about to go insane.

I have installed php5 and SQL5 which both seem to be working fine. I have been trying to install Phpmyadmin and have followed the instructions to the letter. however when I browse to http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin/index.php all I get is a blank screen.
i have enabled the error reporting in the php.ini file but this is not giving me anything.

Does anybody know how I can fix this problem?
Please help as I would be eternally grateful,

Neil V

Does any other php and mysql script work such as phpBB? If not then I suggest you reinstall them both and try again. Follow the tutorials on my website www.abyssunderground.co.uk/tutorials.php if it helps.

I don't have phpBB on my computer I am just starting out and using my localhost as my server. When installing the php it advised to test using the <?php phpinfo();?> which brings up the correct page. I have installed mysql and i think it is running ok

It seems MySQL is probably to fault then. Try an older version and see if that works. I suggest 4.0.24 as described in one of my tutorials.

Hi Inquisitor

Thanks for your help. I've uninstalled php and mysql and reinstalled them following the instructions on your website, which I found very easy to follow, but I am getting the message

"Cannot load mysql extension. Please check your PHP configuration. - Documentation"

When I enter http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin/index.php into my browser.
How do I solve this?

You should learn to search the forum from now on.

The answer is available from the FAQ page on my website.
