Just finished installing mysql, what's next?

    I just finished installing Apache, PHP, MySql on my Windows Vista Home Edition laptop. I know to use php script like "CREATE DATABASE" to create a database. But now if created, where is the database stored? What's the username and password to connect to the database? How to access the database except by scripts, e.g. php coding (I mean how to view the db just like we are using phpmyadmin).

    BTW, how to stop Apache from starting every time I turn on my laptop?

    Hi,

    If you install MySql from installation program then when finished installation process after you went trough configuration wizard. A configuration wizard asked you for root password.
    Or if you skip configuration wizard than you can start manually fom Start Menu/Programs/MySQL/MySQL Server <version number>/MySQL Server Instance Configuration Wizard.

    You can connect to database using root username and password.

    You can download GUI Tools from MySQL website.

    Stop Apache service to run when you start your machine go to Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services. Find your Apache service > Double click to Apache service > Select General tab > Change Startup Type from Automatic to Manual > Click OK.
    After to start and stop Apache service manually you can use ApacheMonitor program.

    If you are using xampp, you can access phpmyadmin console in:

    http ://localhost/phpmyadmin
