How to enable MySQL

MySQL sever is enabled and configured by default, when you run the servers both Apache and MySQL are started hence nothing to do


MySQL Password & PHP Connect Info

  • mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)
  • $dbhost  Host name: The server is running locally on Uniserver hence can be either localhost or 127.0.0.1
  • $dbuser  User name: Uniserver default is root
  • $dbpass  User password: Uniserver default is root Please change MySQL root password ASAP

Note: Windows 7 users

  • For $dbhost use 127.0.0.1 and not localhost

If you wish to use localhost check out MySQL host name 127.0.0.1 or localhost for a solution
