Win / XAMPP server - Patient portal not work

anonymous wrote on Tuesday, June 05, 2012:

I have installed XAMPP on a windows 7 unit.

XAMPP installed on drive d:
OpenEMR Dir:  “d:/OpenEMR/xampp/htdocs/”  -  (I moved it from d:/OpenEMR/xampp/htdocs/openemr - but still doesn’t work)

Everything in OpenEMR works ok.  When I access the “Patient portal”, the new page has a message:

Check that mysqld is running.

ERROR: Could not connect to server!

Hi,

What web address are you using to get to the “Patient Portal”?
And did you turn on the Patient Portal in Administration->Portal?

Instructions for portal can be found here:
