ffrazz Posted April 3, 2003 Posted April 3, 2003 Has anybody installed phpwebsite on their web. I am having an installation problem. I am running setup_config.php (which creates the config.php file)--(the program has a fully-fleshed installation script but...), I keep getting the message: Unable to connect to your server's database. Please reenter your settings. My database host is localhost. Is this correct? Or do I need another path for connection i know that mysql is working since I have other dbs. Thanks ffrazz Quote
TCH-JimE Posted April 3, 2003 Posted April 3, 2003 Hi, Yes thats correct (well it works on my connection for a link) Have you named your created and named your database and setup a user before running the install? Jim Quote
ffrazz Posted April 3, 2003 Author Posted April 3, 2003 Thank you. You do have to create the db before running the script. (The documentation does not say so). Quote
