I have installed PHP verr 4.x and MySQL 4.1 on a Windows 2003 Standard Server running IIS. I am trying to install phpadsnew an adserving program. However when I specify the username, password and table during installation it says Could not connect to database. Whereas the same thing installed without any error on a Windows XP Pro machine.
Do I need to install MyODBC drivers or something similar.
Thanks in advance.

Are you sure it's not the password hashing issue?

Solved it thanks a lot for your help. It was something to do with MySQL reinstalled it and it started working. Are there any issues of MySQL running with MSSQL and IIS.

Not that I'm aware of.

The only possibility I can think of may be port conflicts. I'm not sure what port MSSQL runs on by default (I believe it is 1433), but if there is any conflict, change the port on one or the other. MySQL runs on port 3306 by default.
