      Hi!

      There is no difference to the installation on other systems, all you need is a webserver like Apache, IIS,.. with PHP installed (version 4 or 5).

      1. Download MySQL-Admin
      2. Unpack it.
      3. Copy all files to the document directory of your webserver ("htdocs","wwwroot")
      4. Open your browser and enter the directory on the webserver for Example "http://localhost/mysql-admin/"
      5. Press the "Install MySQL-Admin" button
      6. Fill in all the asked information and press "Install" - be sure, that php has the privileges to write the PASS.php file

      If there are any Problems please write back.

      PS: Normally there is no difference installing MySQL-Admin on plattforms like linux, windows, os x - But yet i had no chance to get access to a with OS X running computer to test it

      Gidday BWA,

      I'm running the latest version 3.3.0 under MacOSX, but it is failing with:

      Connection to server failed.
      Connection to server failed

      And no other info.  I can log in with the same user, pw and server from the command-line.

      I'm running versions:
      MySQL - 4.1.13a
      PHP - 4.4.4

      I couldn't find doco to see what the requirements of MySQL-Admin are.  Could you let me know if these versions are ok or suggest any other problems I may have.

      Thankyou,

      Brooke

        Hi!

        Normally mysql-admin should work on php4 mysql4 without any problems.

        The connection error "Connection to server failed." occurs if mysql-admin is not able to connect to the mysql server, this may be because of a wrong password, username or server.

        Did you get this message while installing it, or at the normal login.

        PS: Currently I'm working on v3.4 and managed it to get a better error message if the connection fails.

          Hi BWA,

          Thanks for the reply.  I just received this after my mail server somehow sent me every email it has ever seen for the last 6 months, desite them being deleted after they are downloaded.  Weird.  Anyway, your mail turned up and for some reason I didn't see it the first time.  Mmmm, perhaps I never saw them in the first place.  You don't care about this ...

          The problem, from memory, occurred at login after it was installed.  I don't belive it is a user / pw problem as I could log in from the command-line.

          I will try version 3.4 and see if that helps.

          Cheers,

          Brooke

      Can anyone help, as I have installed no problem and the Pass.php has been created, but when I start, I get the following messages, but the page loads with limited functions.

      Warning: main(../lib/lib.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/.sites/42/site103/web/mysql-admin/templates/lib.php on line 2

      Warning: main(): Failed opening '../lib/lib.php' for inclusion (include_path='/usr/lib/php') in /home/.sites/42/site103/web/mysql-admin/templates/lib.php on line 2

      Fatal error: Call to undefined function: extractdir() in /home/.sites/42/site103/web/mysql-admin/templates/shared.inc.php on line 6

      Thanks
