XAMPP 和 MySql 的问题

Question

I am facing a problem pretty common, I have installed MySql Server because in the past I developed an CRUD app by using Java Swing and Maven, and now I am trying to create same thing, a CRUD app only this time with PHP.

I am following a tutorial from Udemy and this guy is using XAMPP to launch both an Apache Server and a MySQL. But somehow it's interfering with the one already installed on my laptop and cannot make the connection with XAMPP.

I opened my.ini and where says password i put my own from MySQL Workbench, and I see it's using the same port 3306 but still cannot work and I dont know why.

Is there any solution to modify my.ini and establish the connection without uninstalling the MySql Server installed before, because if I do that I ruin the other Java app using it.

Answer 1

Could you please provide the error logs? So the problem can be identified properly. By default, you can get the logs file for Apache in \\xampp\\apache\\logs\\error.log

And for PHP here \\xampp\\php\\logs
