Hi
I recently installed Wamp Server, to test out PHP/MYSQL pages. However I am having problems getting mysql to work via the testmysql page from my local host. I keep getting the following errors.
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No such host is known. in C:\wamp\www\testmysql.php on line 2
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: [2002] php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No such host is kn (trying to connect via tcp://hostname:3306) in C:\wamp\www\testmysql.php on line 2
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No such host is known. in C:\wamp\www\testmysql.php on line 2
PHP seems to be working OK however.
As I am new to all this PHP/MYSQL stuff, I have no idea what is causing this error. I have already set up a password via PHPAdmin and via the php config file.
I don’t know if I have any conflicting software. If there was a conflict, how would I go about solving this?
Am I supposed to modify something else that i haven’t done yet?
Many thanks for your time.

You need to setup DB account first
You should setup Backup right after setup Wamp successful, so you can go back if something wrong later

Ok, I followed stevenmartin99's advice, and that seems to working for me. Didn't realise you were supossed to add stuff to that test page, which was what confused me at first.
@ yfastud , yeah I already had set up a DB account at the time.
Thanks for the help!
