PHP for the Web Chapter 12 and 13 Myblog and Mysql help

[Alex1]

This is sort of long.

 

Chapter 12

I am going through chapter 12 in the Quick Start Guide PHP for the Web and am having an issue creating the myblog database on PHPMyAdmin from Installation and Configuration A. I have created the database in PHPMyAdmin with the database button. This gives me the option to make a table and columns. I am not sure where I am supposed to put the text:

I am not sure where this is supposed to go on PHPMyAdmin in order to make the database. The book doesn't explain where it is supposed to go.

 

 

When I try and connect to mysql I get the error:

Quote

 

Warning: mysqli_connect(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Could not connect to the database

 

I am guessing that this is because I have not been able to make the database, and that it might go away after I make it.

I am using Mysql Workbench which seems as well as XAMPP. The server status is able to run but it is not able to connect. The user is root

I am also having other errors with the other pages, such as Edit an Entry

Quote

 

Warning: mysqli_connect(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in C:\xampp\htdocs\PHP\Chapter 12\edit_entry.php on line 13

Warning: mysqli_set_charset() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, bool given in C:\xampp\htdocs\PHP\Chapter 12\edit_entry.php on line 16

This page has been accessed in error.
Warning: mysqli_close() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, bool given in C:\xampp\htdocs\PHP\Chapter 12\edit_entry.php on line 72

 

This will probably be fixed after I am able to connect to Mysql.

Chapter 13

The page titled My Site of Quotes does not work because I am getting a lot of errors.

 

 

This might be because I have not gotten Mysql to run yet, and it might be fixed after. The other pages have similar issues.

 

I also wanted to check to make sure that I have the files set up correctly.

Here is what it is supposed to look like:

 

Here are how my files are set up

It looks like you have created the database but have you created the tables?
