David,
I don't think I'm able to help you,
I am using MySQL Administrator as my front end to my database, but as you can see from my previous posts I still can't install xoops.

Can you help with that ?

Huw.

I really need some help with this guys,
I can't get passed the last screen of the XOOPS install wizard.

I've been all over the net to check that I have my database set up correctly, and my user account has the correct schema priveliges.

I'm sure my WAMP environment is fine as I can run other web applications just fine.

I need some help from some experienced Xoopers.

Database connection error

OK - I have a MySQL database called class
I have added a new user called Huw
and also added a host from which the user can connect called Huw@localhost
I have assigned all of the Schema privileges for the class database to Huw@localhost and to Huw
So all of the options like SELECT, INSERT etc are in the column on the left hand side of the User Administration screen in MySQL Administrator

Yet I still get stuck at the last screen on the XOOPS install wizard

Checking the Database screen
I get the message Could not connect to the database server

Is my user account still not assigned to the database class somehow ?? Can somebody tell me how to make sure my user account has access to my database. ?

I'm using MySQL Administrator as my front end.

Thanks for you help,
I'm running through the XOOPS installation wizard and I'm getting stuck on the last screen

Checking the Database screen

I have MySQL installed and the service is running
I have entered the following database information

Database Hostname: localhost
Database Username: root
Datapase Password: rootpass

Do you have any ideas of possable things I could try

Hi I'm new to Xoops.
I'm just trying to install it locally on my laptop.

I have a copy of SQL Server but not MySQL.

Is this a problem ?
If so where can I get MySQL from ?
How much is it going to cost me to buy MySQL ?
