First Hello to everyone . Well my problem is i download the Navicat it shows me the 30 day trial i start it and when i tried to make "New Database" nothing happend its just sit the way i start it if some1 can help me pls do it :sweatdrop
 
euhh that to connect with localhost kad... i think making a DB dont work, give us some more info of your problem =D
 
You have to create a connection before you create a data base. And kadspwn wamp server has nothing to do with setting up or trouble shooting a connection to navicat. Bottom line is he needs to setup mysql and remember the password that he sets, then create a coonection in navicat, then create a data base. The version of mysql doesnt matter at all. Navicat is just a manager and will read any mysql.

Also as element made a comment on, make sure mysql is running.
 
This is important, one think akai has missing from his guide is that he assumes that you already have some sort of mysql server running on your computer when you start at the top of his guide. This is OK for all of us who have been working on rose since the beginning-ish, but for any newcomers it's a very important step.

I suggest that everyone install xampp, it's just my preference, plus akai uses it later on in the guide. Once that is complete, you need to start the xampp control panal or xampp-contol.exe NOT xampp_start.exe . When it loads, press the start button for mysql (and apache if your running a website). At that point your mysql IP address (for navicat) is 'localhost' your username is 'root' and your password is blank (there is no password) and your port is 3306.

At this point you could continue to follow the guide from top to bottom.
As I recently posted on akia's guide thread.
