WampServer

I believe it's the real fix, because the alternative to this, 'true', is to display the DBs in an unordered list.

Aha. Easy! In the phpMyAdmin config.inc.php file place this line: $cfg['DisplayDatabasesList'] = false; That's it.

Too bad. Well, thanks for your help on the other problem. You're an asset to this forum.

Thanks for your reply, but isn't there an easier way? : P I do have databases and I could just save them but I've installed about 5 WAMPs over the past few days, trying to find the best one (WampServer won!). While orphan install files is probably what's causing the problem, is it possible to just fix whatever's wrong with phpMyAdmin?

Yes, I agree about taking the time to be as clear as possible in the forums. Saves a lot of hair-pulling. D'oh. Yes, I should have thought of that. JAMP installed a my.ini in my Windows directory. Since that location was on the Environment Variables path MySQL loaded that one first. Thanks so much for your help. Everything is cool now, except my PhpMyAdmin has a weird issue: when it

Did you run netstat -o, as you stated in your OP, or did you try netstat -ao, as I mentioned? My problem wasn't apparent until I ran the latter. You might also try netstat -b, which will give you a listing of the actual EXE using the port. Maybe helpful, maybe not.

I certainly realize that, but I can't figure out why MySQL would be looking for this file if I've deleted all the previous installations, with only the new WAMPServer install remaining. This install should know nothing about any previous installations. I have since placed the errmsg.sys file in the directory it is looking in, and MySQL does start now, so the immediate problem is solved. But

I've tried several different WAMPs and finally ended up with WAMPServer after horrendous effort trying to get Apache to start. Well, after installing WAMPServer almost successfully, now I can't get MySQL to start. I have downloaded and installed MySQL from the MySQL website just to see if it would work at all, and it does. I have since uninstalled it and removed all files. The error I'm gett

I had the same problem, but for me it was Skype. Try typing 'netstat -ao' (with an 'a') at CMD and that will give you a list of everything running on each port. Maybe you'll find your culprit there. Now if I could just get MySQL started, I'd be happy.
