Description for Connecting with MySQL Database Using XAMPP Server and Java
Description:
The open-source XAMPP stack of software is a localhost server that offers a variety of features through its software bundle. The XAMPP Control Panel is used to run and stop the software that is a component of XAMPP. Before going live on the world wide web, it is used to test projects and changes offline. The establishment of the MySQL database is one of the crucial functions that XAMPP offers. phpMyAdmin is used to accomplish this. This post will go into great detail on what phpMyAdmin is and how to use it to build a MySQL database with XAMPP.
Steps to Connect with MySQL Using XAMPP Server
STEP 1: Locate XAMPP on your computer or click the **XAMPP icon** to start it. Any module can now be started or stopped using the **Control Panel**, which is now visible.
STEP 2: Select the **"Start"** option for the **MySQL** and **Apache** modules. The screen that appears when it begins operating is as follows:
STEP 3: Select the **"Admin"** button that corresponds to the MySQL module. The user is then instantly redirected to a web browser at the address below:
PHPMyAdmin at: `http://localhost/`
STEP 4: A variety of tabs, including **Database**, **SQL**, **User Accounts**, **Export**, **Import**, and **Settings**, are visible. On the "Database" tab, click. This is where the **Create** option is visible. Select a suitable name for the database name input field. When choosing a database name, the following should be considered:
The character count should be 64 or less.
Letters, numerals, and underscores should all be included in the name.
No number should appear at the beginning of the database name.
STEP 5: Creating tables is crucial to organizing the information and keeping it organized. We will construct tables for the generated database in this stage. Click the **'Structure'** tab in the constructed database (e.g., login page). A **'Create Table'** option will appear near the end of the tables list. Click **'Go'** after entering the data in the **"Name"** and **"Number of Columns"** input areas.
STEP 6: Now initialize your columns according to their type. Choose the column type, enter the names of your columns, and enter the input field's maximum length. Select **"Save"** from the menu in the lower right corner. The initialized columns have been added to the table. You can create as many tables as required for your database.
