I've installed XAMPP Windows 1.8.2 and after installing and turning on Apache & MySQL, I can't load my PMA webpage: http://localhost/phpmyadmin/
. It still loading, but nothing happens. I really don't know, what I am doing wrong. Also I can't use any PHP application, which is trying to use MySQL connection (like Symfony2). If I turn off MySQL in XAMPP Control Panel and trying to reload this URL, same problem.
Thanks for any help.
From this point, I would recommend for you to use 1.5.1 version of Xammp right away. Long story why (shortly, this is a Windows matter and with this answer its irrelevant).
So....
However, when you install 1.5.x you might have problems with PMA when larger tables are loaded. This sorts things out
And thats it.
You may, later on, upgrade PHP to ie 5.3.0 and there is a trick how to do that painless somewhere on www (google ekhm) but cant remember where exactly. Enjoy.
ps: If you dont like this answer, youre probably on XP and you need something like vcredist_x86.exe but problems wont stop there ;)
