 * Hmm I’ve figured out the problem:
    I have just do that -> create database wordpress;
   grant all privileges on wordpress.* to [user@localhost;](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfreeman/replies/user@localhost;?output_format=md)
   and make an update on this row. Thank you for your help!

 * The two inserts to the mysql database:
    insert into user (Host,User,Password,
   Select_priv,Insert_priv,Update_priv,Delete_priv,Create_priv,Drop_priv,Reload_priv,
   Shutdown_priv,Process_priv,File_priv,Grant_priv,References_priv,Index_priv,Alter_priv)
   values (‘localhost’,’phest’,PASSWORD(‘phest’),’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’
   Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’); insert into db (Host,Db,User,Select_priv,Insert_priv,
   Update_priv,Delete_priv,Create_priv,Drop_priv,Grant_priv,References_priv,Index_priv,
   Alter_priv) values (‘localhost’,’gugus’,’phest’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’
   Y’,’Y’,’Y’,’Y’); Anything forgotten? regards Max

 * Well that’s very simple when you want to help me. I use the [http://www.apachefriends.de](http://www.apachefriends.de)
   xampp installation which you can find here: [http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html](http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html)
   and unzip the wordrpess to ../lamp/htdcos/.
    Note to XAMPP since version 1.4.7
   Because such very new versions like PHP 5 always should be handled with care 
   we decided to include both current versions of PHP into XAMPP: PHP 5.0.x and 
   PHP 4.3.x. If you find out your PHP application doesn’t work with PHP 5 you will
   be able to switch back easily to PHP 4. By the following command you can switch“
   back” to PHP 4.3.x: /opt/lampp/lampp php4 And with the following command you 
   can switch back to PHP 5.0.x: /opt/lampp/lampp php5 If you forgot which version
   of PHP is in use simply use phpinfo() or call this command: /opt/lampp/lampp 
   phpstatus Then run the browser and type localhost and cklick on phpadmin and 
   add the database and the user (in database mysql -> table user) I give every 
   permission to the user. Then I added in the table db the user with all permisson.
   But it isn’t running. Well another way, because I want to see which tables are
   created. Send me the Entity Relationship Modell of the tables of wordpress that
   would be a 1000 times easier. regards and thank you for your help! Max

 * Hi everyone
    Yep this config is working for me too … many thanks to all! Check
   [http://example.com/wordpress/phpinfo.php](http://example.com/wordpress/phpinfo.php)
   to see if your server supports MySQl, and what options php was compiled with.
   <- this was my first problem. I’ve forgotten to install the php-mysql support(
   shame on me). apt-get install php4-mysql 😉 fix this problem. this is to edit
   wp-config.php, and insert the line: dl(“mysql.so”); somewhere in there, for instance
   before the four define() calls. <- that was the second thing I had to change.

 * Ok I think … that should be enough. Remove the ability to give some comments 
   is probaply more complex.
    thank you for your help. regards Matthias
