Installing Wiki on a Stick, so following the document http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_on_a_stick

Installed 1.4beta6 instead of 1.3.10 because of empty page being displayed(bug #736 in v1.3.x) instead of a 1.3 install success page and localSettings.php file not being written. Got an error when I hit the Install! button for v1.4beta6 which I copied below:

MediaWiki 1.4beta6 installation

Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems. Checking environment...

* PHP 5.0.0: ok * PHP server API is apache2handler; ok, using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title) * Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support. * PHP is configured with no memory_limit. * Have zlib support; enabling output compression. * Turck MMCache not installed, can't use object caching functions * Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be enabled if you enable uploads. * Installation directory: W:\www\wi * Script URI path: /wi * Warning: $wgProxyKey is insecure * MySQL error 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

Something's not quite right yet; make sure everything below is filled out correctly.

Then next to the MySQL server text box, into which I entered localhost, a red message with Connection failed.

So any ideas? Attached the two log files from Apache folder again, still don't have any log/error files in \mysql\data. Are they turned on be default? and how can I check this?

Any ideas? You help is much appreciated.
