    Ok… so i followed the instructions and downloaded the latest wordpress files then ftp’d them to my hosting space and everything was going great. I created a database and then logged in with the details but it is set to No Privileges. I have tried everything possible to assign privileges but this is the point where i am falling over.

    My homepage should be http://flipwebdesign.awardspace.com/ but when i load that i get an error establishing a connection message… what am i missing? is it the No Privileges thing or have i missed a vital piece of the pie?

    Any technical help appreciated… Thanks.

    At awardspace.com you don’t need to (or really can) set the database privileges. Just create the database and complete the wp-config.php fields. Database name and database user are one-and-the-same. After you create the database you will see the database host/server listed (e.g. fdb1.awardspace.com).

    After completing wp-config.php just do the wp-admin/install.php to complete the installation.
