Re: Zend Server installed, now how to install Wordpress?

OK, V5R4 sets a stage, You can still do it if you installed MySQL with the Zend Server.

Did you get in and set the root password for the localhost and create users in MySQL for the host name?

Commands enclosed in [ ] since double quotes can be part of the command;

You'll have to use [mysqld_safe -user=mysql &] to start the MySQL deamon
Enter [mysqladmin version] to verify it's running
Enter [ mysqladmin -u root password "mypassword" ] to set root password
Enter [ mysqladmin -u root -h localhost "mypassword" ] to set the root password for the local host.
Enter [mysql -u root -p ] It will prompt for the password you just set. If that works you should be good to go.

Now try phpMyAdmin with the root password.

BTW: ZendDbi came out for V5R4 a while back, although you may not be able to download it anymore.

Thanks. ZendDbi says it requires 6.1 or later.

If that's the case we're stuck until the upgrade.

I'm thinking you might need to install ZendDBi. That's the supported
MySQL now by both IBM and Zend.

It might also be time to push this over to WEB400.
