    Hello —

    I am trying to install wordpress. I am at step 2 of the phpmyadmin part in the installation manual. Here is the step:

    Click the Home icon in the upper left to return to the main page, then click Privileges. If a user relating to WordPress does not already exist in the list of users, create one:

    I cannot find anything called “privileges.” The phpmyadmin version is 2.9.0.2. There is a section that says:

    Create new database:
    No Privileges

    Am I doing something wrong here? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    You proberly reached the limit of db’s you can create.
    You might want to use the old on, with other prefix 😉

    Also note, the cPanel hosts, if that’s what your are using, don’t give you access to Privileges in phpMyAdmin. You assign privileges in the cPanel Mysql screen.

    I only have 1 db, so too many dbs isn’t the problem.

    I am using cpanel, and I did the thing where you go to mysql dbs: manage users, and I assigned all privileges to the blog. Is there something else I’m forgetting?

    Since you have cPanel, it is in cPanel where you assign User and their privileges,

    Using_cPanel has a good explanaton also.
