Hello There :-)

I would like to try the EZ System. Unfortunaltely I get problems with the installation.

When I come to the point when I am asked for the database things... well there are:

Servername
Username
Password
Socked (whatever the last might be... I ha´ve no idea)

Anyway... Why does this script does not ask me for the database name??? Due to that I cannot finish the installation... or I find the file where to write it in... :-) A hint would be really great :-)

Sorry for my baaaaaaad english... I hope you understood what I´m talking about :-)

Thanks for your help :-)

PS. The data I give the script is definitely correct... 100% sure...

This might be a strange question... sorry :-(

I also found the setup.ini file in the settings folder an wrote the data into that file... but I get the same result...

"The database would not accept the connection, please review your settings and try again."

The data is correct. I am sure!

Thanks for your help :-)

Hi,

Can you give us more informations about your OS, PHP, Database?

Go to settings/site.ini file and set DebugOutput=enabled, to see what errors do you have in "Database configuration" step. If you are running MySQL 4.1 make sure that is set old-passwords variable in my.ini or your database user password is encoded with OLD_PASSWORD function.

mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd')
    -> WHERE Host = 'some_host' AND User = 'some_user';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Encoutered the same issue while trying to install Ez version 3.5:
OS: win 2000
Apache 2
Php 4.3.10
Mysql 4.1.14

As Hetti, I was sure to give the good settings.
Finally I've tried to update mysql.user with the OLD_PASSWORD function... and it works fine .
