raider360 Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 (edited) hi all :) I have one question about MySQL. When I am installed it, I have already some users. There are: "@%", "@localhost", "root@%", "root@localhost". What is this means? :huh: Can I make only 1 user with all privileges?

Garry Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Isn't the PHP asapi module for Apache 2 still experimental? I know when I tried it (over a year ago now) it didn't work too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Large Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Apache 2 works fine now, I have installed an Apache 2, MySQL and PHP webserver and they all work fine together on Windows ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vhane Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 hi all :)I have one question about MySQL. When I am installed it, I have already some users. There are: "@%", "@localhost", "root@%", "root@localhost". What is this means? :huh: Can I make only 1 user with all privileges? The format is this: user@hostmask "%" is a wild card. A blank username and a wildcard after the "@" means that "@%" is an anonymous user that can connect to your server from any host. I'd advise deleting the account. I'd advise deleting the anonymous user that can connect from localhost too. So, delete "@localhost" also. "root@%" Means that root can connect from any host. You may or may not want this. Consider allowing root to connect from localhost only, or only from a box on the LAN. For example: "root@192.168.0.%" I would advise you to create a user for your own use, with priviledges granted for specific databases only.

Ultra Frosty Posted September 25, 2004 Author Share Posted September 25, 2004 I'm looking at PostgeSQL, as it now supports Windows. I'll do some tests and write a setup guide along with a comparison between the two as soon as I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultra Frosty Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 Okay. I updated the guide and Redid the MySQL install for the new MySQL 4.1. It should be a lot easier for people to setup with the installer and not needing to use the command line for everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultra Frosty Posted November 10, 2004 Author Share Posted November 10, 2004 Is there a way to do the same thing for PHP 5? 584883037[/snapback] I don't recommend using PHP5 to any novice users, as the only feature that catches my eye is very good OOP support. But, just change the code in httpd.conf to: LoadModule php5_module "C:/PHP/php5apache2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php and copy php5ts.dll to your C:\WINDOWS\system32 directory.

Jervous Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 PHP 5 is actually better to start learning now, as it is still in an early age, so by the time you have learned some of the things needed in scripts a stable release will be out and you can. Also, since you install PHP, you want Apache to recognize index.php and make it the first page you see when you visit the directory, so you would have to do this aswell: Open C:/Apache2/conf/httpd in Wordpad or Notepad or whatever you use and find: DirectoryIndex and after that you have to add index.php If you use home.php or something different just add home.php, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleman Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Nice tutorial!!! Although after i downloaded the php (installer exe) i found that none of the directories such as sapi and files such as php.ini-recommended were in the c:\php directory so i just downloaded the Zip file and extracted it in and all was well. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
