alright, i'm tired, and have no idea what the problem is.lol

i keep getting this error on the vbulletin install file

Warning: unlink() [function.unlink]: Permission denied in C:\Network\Apache2\htdocs\test\admin\install.php on line 305

Attempting to attach to database...

Warning: mysql_pconnect() [function.mysql-pconnect]: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) in C:\Network\Apache2\htdocs\test\admin\db_mysql.php on line 38

Warning: mysql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in C:\Network\Apache2\htdocs\test\admin\db_mysql.php on line 47

The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please go back to the last step and ensure that you have entered all your login details correctly.

any idea how to fix this, and do not say read the post again, i only looked at in 1,000x time's. :alien: lol

Just restart the Apache and your MYSql and it might work.
I get the same error as you and i did a restart and all went fine! ;)

alright, i'm still haveing problem's, and now mysql won't even start, so i'm going to unintall php, mysql, apace, then install a old apache, php 4.30, and mysql.

Good luck to me. :lick:

If all else fails try www.firepages.com

It worked for me in a matter of 30 seconds :)

I think you might mean firepages.org

Thanks for a great tutorial Tech. Once I fixed my typos everything has worked perfectly. The only thing that I'm not to sure about is the fact that my firewall must be set to let apache access the internet for it to work. The page is denied if it is not set to act as a server and access the net. I'm using Zone alarm. I'm nervous about outside individuals accessing my localhost site. Any thoughts? Thanks again.

No one can access your website because its on a localhost (127.0.0.1).

Unless you configured your Apache config to allow users to view it via your IP address, you should be fine allowing Apache access.

Great, Thanks.
