how do I get apache and mysql to work on my windows pc?

**Gladys_Pym** · 13 May 2007, 05:16 PM

I'm taking over an already populated and already modded zen-cart site.
I've downloaded pretty well everything, in order to use with apache at home before modding and re-uploading, and I know about the config.php files.
My question is, how do I get apache and mysql to recognise the database layout and so on, so I can get on with it?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Howdy Gladys,

I do this with Apache2Triad.

When I do it I setup a new db with the same complete db name and username and password. Then just import the sql file from the original database. Then nothing in the config files have to be changed for the database connection.
