ok..let me put it straight..

i installed mandrake 9.by default it also installed apache+mysql. i run my apache already.and the root for html docs is in /var/www/html/ rite?

k now come to mysql. i believe it's inside my system, but i dunno how to "touch" it. i did play with mysql+php with xp last time. so at least i know abit how to do with these(of coz in windowz).

btw, i have more things to ask. but for now i wanna know this 1st. anyone know good link for myqsl+php (config/installation/etc) in mandrake??

thanks alot
druid

one more question..

i make simple php file ->test.php
and i put it under root var/www/html
there is the code:
<?php phpinfo();?>
wnad when i execute thru internet browse, a new page come out stating the properties of that php and my system, etc.

but strangely when i copy another php file into same directory and the file is more complicated(index.php on phpnuke files) and it just blank.

what i'm confuse now, i havent installed php on my system, but why when i put test.phop it gives page result

:)

did you install phpnuke? or did you just un packed it there?

Get Webmin to help you w/ MySQL

You can always 'view page source' to see if it is the correct page(shows your php code).

If you installed mysql at install you can:
rpm -qa | grep mysql
to see if the rpm installed.
