 * hi, i just searched the forum but could not find a similar situation. my problem
   is when i try to install wordpress 1.5, it displays following lines of error 
   messages, my server uses PHP 4.3.10 and mySQL 3.23.49 and i am very sure i typed
   my hostname, db_name, user and pass correctly. any idea to shed some light on
   my problem ? 🙁

 * Same goes on here, 2.0.2, installation is being done on server where we run other
   important websites so there is nothing wrong with server. Why is the script doing
   SELECT when no tables are yet created still confuses me. Any support?
