Yesterday I went to download MySQL, and I managed to install it, when the download finished, I double-clicked and the program opened normally. I created an account just for testing, so I didn't save the password, so I deleted MySQL to create another account... However when I go to download, now only the option to download in Compressed (zipped) Folder format appears, and I have no idea how to open any type of download in that format, I've tried following the steps taught in the videos and I couldn't either.
Is there a way to fix this? Because yesterday MySQL was downloading normally (as in the image below) and I had no difficulty opening it.
But now the download is just like this (as in the image), and I can no longer open the program.
Note: I use the 64 bit version of Windows 10.
I assume you're downloading MySQL community server from it's official page here: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
If you are, then you can see in the page there are 3 blue buttons
I assume that you are downloading from the "Other Downloads" section (no.2 in image).
could you share the link to the source where you downloaded MySQL?
Usually you should be able to unzip the contents of any .zip file by right clicking the archive in a explorer and choosing extract (not sure what the exact buttons in Windows are called since I don't use it).
Maybe your file got corrupted while you downloaded it (connection issues), have you tried re-downloading it?
I've just searched for the download and started it from the official website
(https://cdn.mysql.com//Downloads/MySQLInstaller/mysql-installer-community-8.0.32.0.msi). This starts the download of an .msi file in my case. Can you confirm that this still starts the download of a .zip file?

I am using IntelliJ IDEA,and I want to configure MySQL database from the IDE:
then fail:
The error is:
Failed to download 'http://download.jetbrains.com/idea/jdbc-drivers/mysql-connector-java-5.1.40-bin.jar
I don't know why connection will time out.
I can download other things such as plugins from jetbrains, but except jdbc-drivers.
I recommend taking a look in IDEA's log files to see if they may have additional details as to why the download is timing out. From the menu go to Help > Show log.
As a workaround, you can manually download the drivers and place them in the necessary location. Download bo the JAR and the mysql-connector-license.txt license file (from http://download.jetbrains.com/idea/jdbc-drivers/mysql-connector-license.txt of from MySQL directly). Place both files in the path {idea-config-dir}/jdbc-drivers/MySQL Connector/J/5.1.40 (modifying the version number if necessary). The location of the {idea-config-dir} can be looked up in the Directories used by the IDE to store settings, caches, plugins and logs help document. For example, c:\Users\Dilbert\.IntelliJIdea2017\config or ~/Library/Preferences/IntelliJIdea2017
Thus, in the end, that directory should have two files:
mysql-connector-java-5.1.40-bin.jar
mysql-connector-license.txt
put jars in
C:\Users\UUSER\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\DataGrip2020.1\jdbc-drivers\PostgreSQL\42.2.5
from another install with internet
In 2019, The folder is this >>
C:\Users{YourUser}.DataGrip2019.3\config\jdbc-drivers\MySQL Connector\J 8\8.0.21
Download jar from
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/mysql/mysql-connector-java/8.0.21/mysql-connector-java-8.0.21.jar
I'm very new to coding and web development. I'm working with HTML and CSS at the moment. The trouble is, I can't see what I'm coding.
How do you load a HTML and CSS file onto a local host so that you can see what you are doing?
Really appreciate it if you could give your input. :)
I've had this question as well, haha. But you'll learn.
So there are two solutions here; one using a localhost and one just simply viewing the file.
I'm not sure what device you're on, but to view your file, just simply double click it as you would do to open any other file. Then you will be able to see your code and what you're programming.
The second solution is the use of a localhost; it's basically a test environment for your website to view it during development.
To set up a localhost on a Macintosh device, you simply go to the Finder and search for Terminal, later open it and write; python -m SimpleHTTPServer.
If you have a folder for your files as well (which is recommended for future reference), just use cd and type where it is. The easiest method would be placing it on the Desktop, and then write in the Terminal; cd Desktop -> cd the-folder-you-have-your-code-in and then write python -m SimpleHTTPServer.
To access this server, just type localhost in the search bar where you'd search for items on the web.
Hope this helps you, and welcome to the developing society!
For future reference, when you become a full-fledged developer, don't use Homestead/Laravel, it's a pain in the ass when you don't understand it. Use WAMP, MAMP, or XAMPP based on what device you're on.
Just open the html file with your browser. On Windows, in Windows Explorer right click on the file and choose open with, then choose your browser.
file:///[complete path to your file] does the trick in Chrome, Firefox and IE, but as #Atrix said, right click + open in [your favourite browser] works too.
You might want to install a full-fledged webserver one day or another though, like Apache or nginx. You also have full stacks servers available (usually coming with a PHP interpreter and a database server), like WAMP (on Windows), or XAMPP (on Windows, Linux and MacOS)
You can do the following:
On a Window machine at the prompt type start the-HTML-file-name
Here is an efficient alternative:
Go to W3Schools Tryit Editor. Wait for the page to fully load. Then enter the following line in the browser's console and press Enter:
document.getElementById('textareawrapper').setAttribute("onkeup","submitTryit(1)")
Now start typing your code in the text area. This is far better than working with a text editor as it shows the output directly as you type.
I have been learning web development for some time and I have noticed on tutorials on youtube that when someone change source file (html, css, js) the webpage opened in browser is automatically refreshing. I have read something about live-reload but it's too complicated for me and there is no step by step tutorial.
I have found some similar questions, but the case is that refreshing happens by side of local server not the code editor or browser as is mentioned in questions that I found.
I'm using Apache as my local server. Sublime Text for writing a code and Ubuntu operating system.
Here is the video that shows what I am exactly trying to say.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q78u9lBXvj0
Npm and live-server doesn't work on my computer at all.
Sorry for my english, but I'm not a native speaker. I'm looking forward for your help.
Anyone knows anything?
Install sublime web server using package manager ( or in your case continue to use Apache )
Use http://livejs.com/
So I was using sublime-text 2 to modify some php files held on a remote server. I used nautilus sftp://... address to server to open up the folder then clicked on the files and pressed open with sublime text. Whenever I did this it automatically saved the changes on the server. For various annoying reasons I had to restore the machine to factory settings. Now whenever I try to open up the files in the way I use to be able to it just opens a blank file titled sftp in my /user/dev directory. Is there anything I need to do to get it back to the way it used to be?
Not sure anyone else has ever experienced this behavior but I never replicated the nautilus effect that I had originally. The best alternative I found was sublime sftp.
Installed by sublime package control:
https://sublime.wbond.net/installation
Then install sublime sftp:
http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/sftp
I was a student coding in php for a class so I was only using it temporarily and never paid for the license. Probably should do that if you are gonna be using it long term.
I am using HTML 5 Geolocations API's for tracking location however I am getting the following error on the Geolocation icon in Chrome Browser
"This Page has been blocked from tracking your Location"
I went to the Preferences and Setting's Page but did not find any help.
In my case the problem was that I opened the HTML file from the file system (file:///...). Browsers generally try to prevent accessing personal information (which includes location) from local files, so you have to serve the file through a web server (even if it is local).
One simple way to serve a static website located in your filesystem is SimpleHTTPServer if you have Python installed. Just navigate to the folder using the command prompt, and say python -m SimpleHTTPServer, and then you can view the file on localhost:8000.
Even I was facing the same problem. One of the solution is to open to file in another browser, I tried in Firefox and it worked fine. Another solution is to open the file through your WAMP server (Local host).
There is a good article here about Geolocation API. You have to go to chrome://settings/content and there, you can find Location information. You should be able to find the exceptions and manage them there.
