WampServer

Hi All,

I am trying to configure WAMP to use the MySQL 5.x Server version I downloaded and I am not sure this will work.

I installed the server directory to the wamp\bin\mysql \mysql_server_5.1.

And when I installed it I used a password, my current version of mysql does not have one for root (I am using this as a testing machine on my desktop behind a Sonicwall firewall, so I am not concerned about hacking).

I the wampmanager.conf to :

[mysql]
mysqlVersion = "5.1.31"
mysqlLastKnown = 5.1.31
mysqlConfDir = .
mysqlConfFile = my.ini
mysqlExeDir = bin
mysqlExeFile = mysqld.exe
mysqlServiceInstallParams = --install-manual wampmysqld
mysqlServiceRemoveParams = --remove wampmysqld


I noticed that the standard version of mysql has 'data' directory in it with the tables, and the server version did not.

If I go to phpmyadmin, I get invalid password. and the version under mysql version still lists 5.0.51b.

Is this going to work and am I close to resolving this?

regards,
Don

you should get it through wampserver's addons menu

I dont know where the "wampserver's addons menu" is located.

I restarted after changing out the MySQL directories with the newest version and now wampserver is running with MySQL 5.1.30.

But I am getting a warning about the library is not the same version.

"Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.51a differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.30. This may cause unpredictable behavior."

I tried swapping out the libmysql.dll in the php directory with the one in the mysql/bin one and restarted the services and that did not solve the problem.

Anyone know if this is ok, or do I have to wait for PHP 5.3 to address the compatabilty issue?

Thanks,
Don

After I replaced the libmySQL.dll in WINNT/system32 and PHP5.2.9 Install_dir from MySQL5.1.30 install_dir/bin, The windows popup an alert, as "the php-cgi.exe fatal error" .

I think it's meaning that the libmysql.dll in php5.2.9 Intsall_dir is different from the libmySQL.dll in MySQL5.1.30 intstall_dir.

Any more help?

just leave this error be, there is no solutiom yet and it will be fixed in the next version of php

It doesnt cause any issues
