Stuck on step 2

[Stratz]

Newbie here And I am stuck on step 2. this comes up when I try to go to step 3

Step 2) Connect to the database
Attempting to attach to database
Error description: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect (http://www.mmmtalk.com/fourms/install/function.mysql-connect)]: Access denied for user 'mmmtalk.com'@'localhost' (using password: YES) /home/mmmtalkc/public_html/fourms/includes/class_core.php on line 273
The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.

The most likely cause of this error is that the info in your config.php file is wrong or your db user does not have full permissions to this database. Please read this for all the known causes of this error:

Thanks steve,

I created a new db in MySQL as recomonded in the link you game me. Now it still does not work but this shows up instead.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/mmmtalkc/public_html/fourms/includes/config.php on line 59

[Steve Machol]

This means that you have a typo on or before line 59 in config.php, possibly a missing ' or ;

Ok fixed that error this pops up now.

Error description: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect (http://www.mmmtalk.com/fourms/install/function.mysql-connect)]: #HY000Host 'box264.bluehost.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server /home/mmmtalkc/public_html/fourms/includes/class_core.php on line 273

[Steve Machol]

Same potential causes as outlined in the link I provided in post #2. Most likely the servername is wrong or you do not have permission to access it.

Got it, I emailed my host and tehy provided the missing info.

thanks for your help,
