I'm having problems with the instal script. I get the following error after adding my database info:

The selected selected user has not got access to any databases. Change user or create a database for the user.

The database definately exists and has been accessible to other scripts.

I think this may be something to do with the scipt looking for any available databases which I think my server (Donhost FreeBSD) doesn't allow.

As a test, I tried to overide the setup.ini and site.ini and ran kernel_schema.sql and cleandata.sql into the databse and tested the site with the instal script turned off (CheckValidity=false) which just resulted in an error.

Is denying listing of databases a common problem using shared hosting ?

To fix your problem you need to enter kernel/setup/steps/<ez_database_init.php, ez_site_details.php> and add the databases you wish to use manually to the $availDatabases variabel. (must be array, containing database names as text elements)
