hanzzsoloOK I am trying to install WP on my computer locally. Followed instructions from: (http://geeksaresexy.blogspot.com/2006/06/installing-wordpress-locally-under.html)
The next step is to run the following:
(http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php)
This is the error message I get:
Can’t select database
We were able to connect to the database server (which means your username and password is okay) but not able to select the wordpress database.
•Are you sure it exists?
•Does the user david have permission to use the wordpress database?
•On some systems the name of your database is prefixed with your username, so it would be like username_wordpress. Could that be the problem?
