I am running WeBuilder and also have XAMPP installed and need to connect to the development localhost.
I have established the MySQL dbase on my localhost and can view, edit w/ PhpMySqlAdmin just fine (with password).
Now need to connect via WeBuilder, under the SQL tab.
LABEL: <databasename>
TYPE: MySQL
HOST: ?????????????????????
PORT: 3306
USERNAME: <databasename>
PASSWORD: <password>
DATABASE: <databasename>
I downloaded drivers, from the site and installed for MySQL 4.0 (recommended) . 4.1 is also offered at install time. NOTE that XAMPP MySQL is 5.1.
What does the HOST name look like when running locally on Windows, with localhost an WeBuilder --> XAMPP?
The folder where the database is located is:
D:\XAMPP\mysql\data\<databasename>
My code has lots of PHP and MySQL calls, so assume I need the above connection from WeBuilder.
Any input on this will be greatly appreciated.
