I'm new to wordpress, and have minimal knowledge about sql. I have the database set up at a server. I'm getting to the install button after changing the config file, then.."Error establishing a database connection"
I had a database running for a while on same server, but in a subdomain, so compatibility with my version of sql should be ok.
Error establishing a database connection
99.9% of the time this means one of the DB values is wrong in wp-config.php

Solved! I didn't get that the files and folders had to be at the root of domain (when running database from root). I had a wordpress directory. Reinstalled all, and it seems like I'm up and running. Thanks anyway!
