I want to install Ez 3.4.4 so after downloading the installer.exe and the setup, my first question is, do I simply run the setup wizard or must I first install a database?
To someone with a firm grip on ez this sounds really dumb but if anyone could help me I would be most grateful.
P.S I did try setting up a database first but when starting MySql I get the following errrors:

Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: No error

and then two error messages, is this wrong?

Sounds like you are trying to run eZ publish on your desktop? If so, then you may be better off using the 3.5 installer.exe.

eZ publish needs a database to run it, and it also needs a server and PHP plus a few other things. All fairly standard requirements for most good CMS packages.

If you need to get a clearer view of your desktop's DBs then you could try the free DBtools - http://www.dbtools.com.br/EN/downloads.php

Yes you are quite right I am trying to install EZ Publish onto my desktop and would prefer to use EZ 3.4 because I have a site using EZ 3.4 and want to get to grips with the basics with it.

What was unclear to me is whether when I install the EZ 3.4 does that include a PHP, MYSQL database, apache server etc or whether I needed to install them seperately.

Thanks very much for getting back to me however.
