Title: Installation Issues Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Installation Issues * [rooderz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rooderz/) * (@rooderz) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/) * Hi there everyone, * I hope that someone can help me out here. I have had a browse through the posts and still cant work it out. Apologies if there is a solution that i missed. * I have a domain name registered with Domainit along with a hosting plan. They offer php and sql. So as instructed i went into the control panel, then mysql. There i enabled sql and it gave me details of my sql databse. It said to access it i had to use phpmyadmin. I used the link and saw there was one databse updowntrader_com. * Attempting to make any new databse such as blog or wordpress_blog failed. It would give me an error message. So i figured i would try and edit the config file with the details of the existing updowntrader_com database. * I did this and used filezila to upload all the necessary files onto the server. HOwever when i try to open the install file in the browser it just says done and there is a blank page. * I have a feeling it has to do with user privileges on the database however i cant seem to change add or view any user privileges on phpmyadmin. The tutorial says clcik the Privileges button but there is not one on the phpmyadmin page. * Sorry if this seems long winded, any help woud really be appreciated. * Thanks Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) * [Samuel B](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samboll/) * (@samboll) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/#post-1143116) * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_cPanel](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_cPanel) * Thread Starter [rooderz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rooderz/) * (@rooderz) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/#post-1143124) * Hey * Thanks for replying but i dont see anything similar to what is shown in the screenshots.. When i click mysql manager it just shows my the details of my database eg. * Username: Password: Database name: Server/Host: Port: * I thought the above data may have been sufficeint to edit the config file but it wont work when i try to install on my browser. * Under this is a link to phpmyadmin where they say you can administer your sql database. However even there i cannot add users or privileges. Getting a bit frustrated trying to work this out been at it for a few days. I have contacted the support at Domainit to see if they can help and posted on here. Dont really know what else to do. * Thanks for your help and if you know any other way to help me! * [Samuel B](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samboll/) * (@samboll) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/#post-1143125) * > sql * are you using SQL or MySQL big difference * Thread Starter [rooderz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rooderz/) * (@rooderz) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/#post-1143127) * MySQL, at least that is what it is reffered to on the control panel of the domain. * [Samuel B](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samboll/) * (@samboll) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/#post-1143129) * ok – who is your host?

Thats my issue i dont know what to try next. * I made sure that the config file on the server was the updated one and tried several times. I have also combed the config file in case i made a typo but cant see one. I know my username, password, host and all that info but it still wont install. * [Samuel B](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samboll/) * (@samboll) * [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/#post-1143150) * if you want me to look at it I will I have some work to do so it will be 4-5 hours just email me sbollinger at comeuphither dot com Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) The topic ‘Installation Issues’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [installation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/installation/) * In: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) * 9 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Samuel B](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samboll/) * Last activity: [16 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-issues-9/#post-1143150) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
