Well I don't know what PHP you are running if not Zend <grin>

If you go to yourSystemName:10080/ZendServer/ you should be taken to the control panel which at some point you'll need particularly if working with Wordpress.

From there you can also set up PHPMyAdmin which you'll find a useful tool for setting authorities, backing up tables, etc. With a tool like WP the "database" - if such it can be called - probably holds no interest as far as using it from RPG or SQL is concerned, but that interface also makes it easy to change the underlying DB storage engine so that you could switch to using the DB2 storage engine if desired for software where you do want to share the data.

I have a working PHP Apache instance. We don't really use Zend as far as I
know.

When I go to
http://myserver:10080/wordpress/wp-admin/setup-config.php?step=1 I see the
page to enter the DB connection details.

When I enter the correct info, I get the page
Error establishing a database connection

If I create a wp-config.php file, it tells me it already exists.

Thanks for the quick response.

Jack can you be a bit more precise about " it's not working." - that
really doesn't help.

Can you see the Zend Server control panel?

Can you see a regular HTML page when using this Apache server instance?

When you try to launch WP what happens? Does it show you the setup page or
???

I have it installed and have created a database and user. Since I can

QP2TERM to run commands on the DB I assume it's running.

I'm trying to install Wordpress for a POC. I try to connect with this
sample PHP, but it's not working. How can I confirm all of my settings
on
the mySql server? Thanks

<?php
# Fill our vars and run on cli
# $ php -f db-connect-test.php

$dbname = 'wordpress';
$dbuser = 'myuser';
$dbpass = 'mypassword';
$dbhost = 'localhost';

$connect = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die("Unable to
Connect to '$dbhost'");
mysql_select_db($dbname) or die("Could not open the db '$dbname'");

$test_query = "SHOW TABLES FROM $dbname";
$result = mysql_query($test_query);

$tblCnt = 0;
while($tbl = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$tblCnt++;
#echo $tbl[0]."<br />\n";
}

if (!$tblCnt) {
echo "There are no tables<br />\n";
} else {
echo "There are $tblCnt tables<br />\n";
}
