I'm going through the install process and everything seems to go fine until I get to the Setup Database part. The page shows Connecting to the MySQL Server... . I thought that it may just take a while, so I let it sit for an hour. It still says Connecting to the MySQL Server... . I'm getting no errors. Any ideas?

Do you have the correct values in the include_config.php file?

It may be an error in the setup script, I'm not entirely sure. Please download this version of setup.php:
[quote]http://open-audit.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/open-audit/trunk/setup.php?revision=690

There were some bug fixes and actually I believe the installer that got released was buggy! Hope the new script works for you.

I'm seeing the same issue. I tried the new setup.php with no luck...

MySQL version 5.0.27-community-nt. It's loaded in the c:\prog files\mysql\mysql server 5.0\ directory, however I have all necessary directories in my PATH. (ie. bin, etc)

PHP is 5.2.0.0 and it is off the root (C:\php)

P.S. MontanaScott sorry to take over your post, hopefully the same resolution fixes us both!!

OK, create a .php file in your web directory, and inside it, put the following:
[code]<?php
phpinfo();
?>[/code]
Next, call that page in your web browser. Do you see a section with a "mysql" heading ? If not, then your php isn't talking to your mysql....

You nailed it! No MySQL section, the two are not on speaking terms...

Look for the following in your php.ini file.. (you may have more than one PHP.INI file if you have installed PHP and Apache as separate packages, so if this line looks OK, look for another PHP.INI file).

[code]
;extension=php_mysql.dll
[/code]

if it has a ; in front of the line, then remove it.

ALSO beware the line ;extension=php_mssql.dll is for Microsoft SQL so check carefully.... mysql not mssql


[code]
extension=php_mysql.dll
[/code]

and restart the web server (apache or iis)
(If you are running Linux, the line will be slightly different)

BTW this sort of problem is the reason I moved to using XAMPP, it typically sets up all of this stuff for you. http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html

I noticed when I ran the installation for PHP, there was an option to select the MySQL components (got around this issue nicely!).

I take it that means the issue is fixed (I will mark it fixed). If not let me know.
Hope you enjoy using Open Audit. Let us know how you get on.

Whoops - I guess I hopped into this conversation saying that the PHP installation for Windows gives you an option to select MySQL add-ins during install...just trying to be helpful. I don't know if the issue is fixed for AMueller...

Thanks for all the input. I'm actually away from my computer until Tuesday but will try the php.ini fix then.

Thanks all for your help!
