Step 2) Connect to the database

Attempting to attach to database

Error description: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) /home/admin/black/includes/class_core.php on line 311

The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.

this time you forgot to edit your config.php file !! find it in includes folder and set the values. You or/and your host knows best what values to be put for them.

then follow the install link !!
