EASYPHP AND ERROR MESSAGES

Solved
tilt1245 -  
Hello,

the software reports an error like this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'mysql' (T_STRING), expecting ']' in C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-Devserver-17\eds-www\Test\minichat.php on line 40

I don’t know if I need to reconfigure the .ini file and if so, where to find it and how to do it, it’s different from WAMP from Microsoft. Thank you for your help.

    Which line is affected by the error?

    --
    I mainly work in VB6 and VB.NET, with a little C#, but moderation often brings me to other languages.
    In VB.NET, remember to enable "Option Explicit" and "Option Strict."

      Hello NHenry !

      // Connecting to the database

      line 40: $bdd = new PDO('mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=chatbd', 'root', ' ');

      Error message:
      Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'mysql' (T_STRING), expecting ']' in C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-Devserver-17\eds-www\Test\minichat.php on line 40

      I was told that the password in easyPHP is: mysql ????

      So I tried with the following code and it's still the same

      line 40: $bdd = new PDO('mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=chatbd', 'root', 'mysql ');

      Thank you for your help!

        Clearly, the problem is not there.

        It still seems recommended to use "localhost" instead of "127.0.0.1".

        What is the code surrounding the line?

      Hello

      First, think about this:
      https://forums.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-37584941-php-pdo-gerer-les-erreurs

      Then... what do you have on the lines before line 40?
      Given the error message.. I have the impression that you wrote something incorrectly on the previous line

        Thank you Jordane, it's fixed!

        I accidentally deleted "host" in front of "localhost" in the code

        $bdd = new PDO('mysql:localhost;dbname=chatbd', 'root', '');
        instead of:
        $bdd = new PDO('mysql:host=:localhost;dbname=chatbd', 'root', '');

        It's all good now! Thank you!
