In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionThanks for your great idea!
Turns out MySQL was starting in safe mode (from php.ini), therefore blocking MySQL connections.
Thanks!!!! SO MUCH!!!!!!

In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionI’m using 2.7 though. I downloaded it just tonight so it’s gotta be it.
I haven’t actually tested the database with any other php scripts. Let me give that a try and I’ll let you know 🙂
Thanks!

That’s what the file looks like.. I can login to MySQL console perfectly with that. I really want to try this blog!Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionUpdate:
Managed to go a ‘step’ further by installing an earlier version of MySQL (mysql5.0.51b, was previously using mysql5.1.30) and now I get:
“Can’t select database”
I can login the console and select the database and do whatever though…
If I put on root as username and root’s password, I get the same thing.. 🙁
