Downloaded WAMPS and all went well. Changed the root password in phpmyadmin as well as in the config.ici.php file
Attempted to connect to it with:
$hostname="localhost";
$username="root";
$password="password";
$dbname="test";
$usertable="te";
MYSQL_CONNECT($hostname,$username, $password) OR DIE ("<html><script language='JavaScript'>alert('Unable to connect to database! Please try again later.')</script></html>"
;
It refuses to connect. I'm sure it' something simple. Any suggestions what to check first.
