Still no luck with the DB connectivity, I installed, MySql administrator, and I thought I would try to create the DB first, thinking may XOOPS was having trouble doing that. But I have not found how to create the db.
Hmm, I keep getting a message with the red light saying, Could not connect to the database server. I have checked and re-checked the user has access to create. Is there something I am missing as far as the rights XOOPS has to check DB connectivity? I saw that a successful install has connection Successful and then creating tables
That fixed my blank screen issue, now I have could not connect to database server issue, I am using MySql 4.1. I reinstalled, made sure I had correct username and password. does the XOOPS install create the db for me?
I am installing a test instance of XOOPS on my local machine, I had the green lights all the way until I hit next on the confirm database settings. I have a blank white screen in the browser.
