SQL is running, actually. I got the install.php to run on
www.mysite.com/forums/admin/install.php
but when it got to the sql connection, I got that same error.
I filled in config.php with the proper database info etc, but still no luck.
And to top it off, when I try the other URL (the one i want)
http://forums.myforums.net/admin/install.php
i get a blank 404 error...
O_O....i hate the host....
ARG....my test boards weren't NEARLY as hard -_-!
