Anyone know how to get phpwiki/mysql to work

[jbmurphy]

Trying to get phpwiki to work in DASP environment. Anyone know how to do this? I can't get it to connect to mysql.

[jbmurphy]

I am new to php but I get the following error:

PearDB.php:32: Fatal[256]: Can't connect to database: wikidb_backend_mysql: fatal database error

DB Error: connect failed
( [nativecode=Can't create TCP/IP socket (10106)]

Looks like it is trying to use PEAR. is that installed?

Any ideas how to get this to work?

What is the mySQL server name are you using?

thanks, i really want to get a wiki up and running. do you know of any others that will work with DASP?

[bruce]

This should be correct...

I am not an expert in php, i'll ask one of the guy whose more familiar w/ PHP to test this if he gets a chance.

OK. PHPWiki will not work on our server because PEAR module is not installed.

Take a look at this page, http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiEngines

Find one that's written in ASP, VB.NET, C#.

Would they be willing to install the PEAR module? Isn't it a common way to access mySQL with php?
Someone else or any other appications that could use it?

[bruce]

Sorry I took so long to get back.

The main issue was the server was mis-configured. If you put phpwiki behind a passworded directory and you autheniticated, the authenticated account did not have permission to create the connection. The SA correctd the issue.

The other tip is that you have to edit the conf so that the correct paths are in it. The program tries to auto guess thepaths, but that did not work, and once I maually netered the paths, I got everthing working
