you have to match up your database information with your config file

your dbusername, the password and the actual database

no it is what you put in for creating your database, click on MySQL Databases in your cpanel and check the information. then make sure it matches with your config.php file

At the bottom, the pw just says PASSWORD HERE on the information below the MYSQL database

do you remember the password you made for the user in the database?

if not i believe you can click on edit next to the username at the bottom and change the password, and put that into your config file

it says "LocalHost, "myusername_myusername", <PASSWORD HERE>
--------------------

Changing the pw says
"User Name:
Password:
"Create my Sql User"

^^is that how to change the user name and pw?

Did you create the database yourself or was it pre-created by your host?
If your host created it, he should have supplied you with username and password.

If you created it yourself, you must also create a user and assign that user to the database with all permissions

I was trying to, restore a database, and i set the permissions

Marco van Herwaarden

03-25-2005, 09:28 PM

So, did you create a user/password and assign it with full permissions to the database?
