  1. Hey guys, I changed the index.html to index.php and restarted the apache service. But when I refreshed the page I got a worse result; The page displayed only the source code now! Some help please

  2. Hiii friend, I need your help….
    I have performed each and every step that you explained in the video…
    But I am getting a error "HTTP Error: 500 – FastCGI process exited unexpectedly" when I type in the browser "localhost/phpmyadmin"
    plz tell me how to solve this

  3. Apache?! The first words in this video should be "before we go on to phpMyAdmin we need to install Apache…."  When you tell someone how to do something "from the beginning" you don't start in the middle.  It's like telling someone I will teach you how to build a house and start by telling them how to attach the walls to the foundation without telling them how to build the foundation first.  If this is what I can expect from Lynda – then no thanks

  4. Works ok until i have to change index.html to index.php!!
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_detect_encoding() in C:Apache24htdocsphpMyAdminlibrariesphp-gettextgettext.inc on line 177

  5. This is what i get can anyone help

    /* vim: set expandtab sw=4 ts=4 sts=4: */
    /**

    foreach ($drops as $each_drop) {
        if (array_key_exists($each_drop, $_GET)) {
            unset($_GET[$each_drop]);
        }
    }
    unset($drops, $each_drop);

  6. I get the php version number okay but then I STILL get that error referring to the mb_detect_encoding when I try to access phpmyadmin in my web browser.

  8. I can't change to index.php and can't save also, here is the difference from your httpd.conf to me………
    </Directory>

    #
    # DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
    # is requested.
    #
    # The index.html.var file (a type-map) is used to deliver content-
    # negotiated documents.  The MultiViews Option can be used for the
    # same purpose, but it is much slower.
    #
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var

    [help me please]

  9. pls help me when i type http://localhosts/phpmyadmin this error occur:

    Notice: Array to string conversion in C:Apache24htdocsphpmyadminlibrariesError.class.php on line 179

    The mysqli extension is missing. Please check your PHP configuration. <a href="Documentation.html#faqmysql" target="documentation"><img class="icon" src="./themes/pmahomme/img/b_help.png" width="11" height="11" alt="Documentation" title="Documentation" /></a>

    what is wrong and what should i do. pls help me..

  10. For the mb_detect_encoding() error, check to see if PHP is in your Windows PATH.  You can do this by simply opening a command prompt and typing php -v If it doesn't return the version of PHP then the PHP.EXE file is not in your Windows PATH environment variable.  You should be able to do this from the command line as long as you opened it with Administrative Privileges SET PATH=%PATH%;C:yourpathphp
    Make sure to change the C:yourpathphp to wherever your PHP executable is located.  If you don't know download agent ransack and search for php.exe on your computer.
