    Installing on site5.com

    Hi folks,
    Have signed up with site5.com for the time being, and i'm trying to install version 1.1.1 as I understand 1.1.2 is buggy on their servers. Anyway, I was kinda hoping that someone could offer some guidance to assist me ?

    It's kinda embarrasing to say that I got stuck so early on the install but, in my defence, the host, mySQL and PHP are all new to me... :p

    Can anyone shed any light on the correct content of the config.php file for me ? I've tried various solutions, but keep getting the same message - can anyone help ?

    Cheers guys!

    You didn't setup the database with the correct user permissions. When you create the db you have to create a user and give that user permission to access the db. This is a step most people forget. They create the db and user but don't set user permissions.

        I think that this is because you are using either an incorrect username or database in your config.php file. Check with your host that you do have the correct details.
