I have installed both php and MySql on a Windows 2000 machine running IIS 5. Both work when I independantly try them, but I can't get them to work together. In my .php source, I am doing a $link = mysql_connect ("localhost", "root", ""); which returns the error Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\Src\TestApp\index.php on line 1 Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
