How to setup apache+php+mysql?

[Ding Li]

How do I know it is running correctly? I used '/etc/init.d/mysqld start' 
to run mysql.

btw: the error is like this,

   Warning:  mysql_connect():  Access  denied  for user: 'root at localhost'
   (Using password: NO) in /home/user/public_html/mysql.php on line 8
   Could  not  connect  : Access denied for user: 'root at localhost' (Using
   password: NO)

What's wrong?
