Hi,

> just it simply display my code as it is.

In the adress bar type : 'http://localhost/webapps/init.php'

Note: at the beginning of the file you wrote '><?php' I think it is a typo, you need only '<?php'

Hi again,

Unless you added a password to the `root` userid then by default there is not password on `root`.

So try this

<?php
$db_name="webappdb";
$sql_name="root";
$sql_pass="";
$server_name="localhost";
$con=mysqli_connect($server_name,$sql_name,$sql_pass,$db_name);

if(!$con){
    echo"Database Connection Error...".mysqli_connect_error();
} else{
    echo"<h3>Database Connection Success....</h3>"
}
?>

If this fails please paste the EXACT error message into your next post

Also REMEMBER you must run this now through your browser using `localhost/webapps/init.php`

You cannot run PHP code by doubleclicking on the `init.php` file name in windows explorer.

Try with

$sql_pass="";  // note no space in string
