I installed EasyPHP beause its MySQL server is easy to configure, and because PHPMyAdmin allows me easy modifications. Furthermore, I know these tools well because I used them several times in other contexts. I know, it's a newbe's stuff, but a friend of mine used this and succeded in making nwnx² work. Unfortunately, I don't have any contacts with him any longer and can't ask him how he made it work.

And I've got a problem : nwnx² doesn't see my database. No data is read or written in it. Confused
Code:

NWN Extender V.2.5.4.0
(c) 2004 by Ingmar Stieger (Papillon) and Jeroen Broekhuizen
visit us at http://www.nwnx.org

* Loading modules...
* An error occured during OnCreate of odbc
* NWNX2 activated.
* NWNX2 shutting down...
* NWNX2 shutdown successfull.
And in nwnx_odbc.txt :
Code:
! Error while connecting to database: [Microsoft][Gestionnaire de pilotes ODBC] Source de données non trouvée et nom de pilote non spécifié
(= "Datasource not found and driver's name not specified").

I don't have any visible ODBC driver in my Configuration Pannel (but my PHP parser can access my MySQL databases, so MySQL works).

Question 1) What must be the name of my MySQL database if I want it to be visible by nwnx² ?
Question 2) If you advise me to use a 'real' version of MySQL, can you advice me a visual tool for manupulating my datas and structures (like PHPMyAdmin does) ?

I'll try to setup a 'real' MySQL server, downloaded from 'real' MySQL website. And I hope not to be lost in a huge maze... *self-confident Wink*

You have to download the ODBC connector from the mysql website and have it installed in order for the ODBC plugin to work. Then you have to define a datasource called "nwn".

An easier way to get this up and running would be the new ODBC2 module, which can talk directly to MySQL servers, without the need of an ODBC driver.

MySQL Administrator and Query Browser are good graphical tools for MySQL.

P.S.: PHPMyAdmin works with just about any version of MySQL... you don't need some special package to do it Smile
