I'd like to help, but my only experience working with mySQL databases is using the interfaces connected to cPanel.

 

I would recommend that you find a hosting provider (TCH is fantastic!!!) that provides you with better tools to work with your website.

 

But I hope that somebody else can help you with your specific question. Good luck!!

I'm not sure about the PHPMyadmin / database issue.

 

However, I would suggest waiting until you switch to TCH before installing Movable Type, since you say you're switching soon.

 

It took me literally a minute to set Movable Type up and, as abinidi said, the tools here for such things are excellent.

Welcome to the forums

 

As far as I know PhpMyAdmin will not create or assign a user.

 

maybe someone knows a way.

I read Mr. Bruce that you are one of the "master" of MT can you help me with my problem...

Well, I'm not the master of MT, that would be TCH-David.

Welcome to the forums, temiuo!

 

Your problem isn't an MT problem - it's a MySQL one, so an MT "master" wouldn't necessarily be of much help.

 

If it has not been disabled, you can use phpMyAdmin to add a user to a database. Look for a "Privileges" link on the phpMyAdmin home page, or a "Privileges" tab on the Databases page.

 

If you don't have that option available, you'd really need to talk to your host, as they know what they've set up on the servers and what tools are available to you.

Hello im still on my movable type issue...

 

They finaly gave me my working database.... but im still having a problem

 

The images arent showing up. The paths are right. I uploaded them properly, and they are actually there. but they wont show up. It;'s sorta annoying me now .. this is what it looks like. maybe its just me .. but .. how do I make it work?

 

This is my link: http://www.temiuo.com/cgi-bin/mt.cgi

 

Help me I don't no what's the problem

 

Thanks

The images aren't showing because the paths are *not* right. In your mt.cfg file, it appears you have the following for StaticWebPath:

>StaticWebPath /var/www/html/mt-static/

StaticWebPath is a relative URL, not a local file system path. You should use the following for StaticWebPath:

>StaticWebPath /mt-static/
