Hi, An error message about a syntax error in MySQL means that the statement indeed has a syntax error. If in doubt, copy and paste both the exact statement and the full error message here and someone will be able to interpret it for you. Regards,

Hi, If you have just installed the latest version of WAMP2, you already have PHP 5.2.6. If your application for some reason requires you to run PHP from the command line, meaning from the Windows command prompt (Start - Run - cmd - OK), you need to add the path to php.exe into the system variable PATH through the Control Panel - System - Advanced - Environment Variables - System variables.

Cheers. I support several sites with one external IP address serving a number of domains and subdomains through name-based virtual hosts. Even though I have not used two servers exactly like your configuration, I do not think IIS cares where the request comes from when it sends the response to the browser :-) Regards,

Cheers, Tom. After a day of +35C, it has been raining for a couple of days here in Sydney. By the way, if you want to administer your MySQL server remotely from the LAN, it is easier to use a client application like MySQL Administrator which is not dependent on the web server running on the local machine.

Hi, The ProxyPass directive maps remote servers to the URL space of the current Virtual Host, so that the content served by the other server becomes part of the domain of the current Virtual Host, which is not the case here. Your Virtual Host does not want to know about the DocumentRoot folder in the server running IIS, therefore it throws a syntax error. You can use mod_rewrite to sol

Hi, If you created a database, you gave it a name and you need to use that name when connecting to the database. Use phpMyAdmin to create a user and give that user a password. Add a host 'localhost' under your user and assign database-specific access rights required by your application (while testing you can add all rights) to that combination of user, host and database. That shoul

Hi, Stopping the notices in php.ini works all right: error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT In a production server you would also have: display_errors = Off log_errors = On Make sure you have edited the correct php.ini file. It is in c:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.8\bin. Remember to restart the Apache service from the WAMP icon in the system tray. Regards,

Hi, If you want to use mysqldump to back up the database, you can enter the full path when typing the command, or add the path c:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.0.51b\bin to the System variable PATH in Control Panel - System - Advanced - Environment Variables - System variables. You can make a backup from the command line or a scheduled task in Windows like this, assuming that myusername and mypassw

Hi, It is best not to embed a document root into another. The document root of a virtual host does not have to reside in c:\wamp\www, it can be for example in E:\www\emg. That way you can avoid the complexity altogether. Regards,

Hi, You can always install MySQL GUI Tools to any workstation, and also on the same box that WAMP runs on, which makes it easier to set the initial root password and add users to connect remotely using the GUI Tools.

Hi, 1) Yes 2) I do not think you can install a web server on GoDaddy, you can just use the servers they have installed.
