Good morning, hope this finds you well.  I execute phpCodeGenie, see the index page, enter usename and password, rub the lamp, and get the error, "Cannot Conntect....  This username and password works with phpScheduleIt and MySQL Administer.  I have done due diligence reading documentation and help forums, but am overlooking something.  Thanks for any assistance.

Testbed configuration:
  os windows 2000 service pack 4    on C
  Apache2 2.0.53 on E

I resolved this by retrofitting to MySQL 4.0.21.  I do not have a solution for MySQL 4.1.xx
