Do you actually have the mysql engine running?
It seems to me that it does not start up by default when running from CD.
Have you done a "/etc/init.d/mysql start"?
This is the error i get when i try to run my php files on the server.
Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to MYSQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111) in /ramdisk/var/www/index.php on line 11 Unable to connect to database
help! i've doubled checked line 11 everything is pointing and spelled correctly.
