[Help] with reg page/connection error....In need of your wisdom :P

hi all, this is my first post :P yay..

i have tried to set up every pw server pack i have found online and i always run into errors,
at the moment my reg page does not work and shows this error :

Warning: mssql_connect() [function.mssql-connect]: Unable to connect to server: TDS in /opt/lampp/htdocs/register/processor.php on line 26

Warning: mssql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MS SQL-Link resource in /opt/lampp/htdocs/register/processor.php on line 27
Connection failed! Check your core.php

so i got hold of the "testacc" user sql dump. and now i have another problem. for example currently i have set up my server and it appears to work, yet if i try to log in with the "testacc" account i get an error in the colinux window which reads :

GQueryPasswd:account is testacc , login ip is 33685514
TRACE : Timer update: (0) Sat Feb 21 21:36:43 2009

TRACE : gdelivery::passwdtimeout. user=testacc
TRACE : gdelivery::matrixpasswd cache missing, user=testacc

all my ip/info within table.xml/hosts ect are all correct, so could anyone help me with a soultion for either or both of these problems. and i have used the search button but have not found a working soultion.

thanks guys :P

open your PWServer.bat and fallow it

cd /opt/lampp/htdocs/register press enter

nano core.php press enter

on core.php put your sql password

example:
$dbhost = "127.0.0.1";

$dbuser = "sa";

$dbpasswd = "PASSWORD HERE";

press CTRL X press Y press ENTER put cd press ENTER and start your server
if you reg is on appserver open AppServ\www\reg and edit sql password save and done

thanks for the reply, all my info in all those fields are correct as is the info in table.xml and etc/hosts.
so that isnt the problem. i have even installed the latest version of lampp (xampp for linux) into colinux and that still doesnt help. any more ideas ?

Yep, the table.xml is scripted for a connection to a MSSQL Server...
If you are a programer or have friends can "translate" the table.xml for a connection to a MySQL Server... It's will be very nice... ^^
Other problems... in every release on this forum don't include MySQL Connector/J in their package... Always for a connection to a MSSQL Server (msODBC...) (Noobs always love Microsoft ^-^)... MySQL connector/J is needed for a connection to MySQL server with Java : )

(Sorry for bad english.. I speak french ^^")

I'm trying to search more information about MySQL connector/J for a fully perfect server on Linux/Unix system ^^ (Love OpenSource :ott: )

Cheers ^_^

EDIT : Don't use coLinux and MSSQL ! it's for noob !
Do a perfect world server on a Linux with physical machine ! Not virtual machine or coLinux because the perfomance are decreased than a real machine... and it's more difficult to install and configure, thrust me ^-^
And MySQL is very better than MSSQL for many thing... (no proprietary software and co...)
