  • I am getting the following error when attempting to run the install.php. I also think that i may have screwed up the database creation. Using godaddy for hosting….thanks for any help or advise

  • You probably have to go into your php.ini file and uncomment the line that enables that extension. On some servers you can logon and do a reinstall of php which basically lets you edit your current settings. Not sure how much control you have over your server.

    At godaddy that message means you did not create a mysql databse with a valid user/pass – or did it incorrectly.
