TerryK Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Have you asked your host to create a database for you? (This usually has to be done at their level -- not yours -- unless you're using your own server.) Once they've created a database for you, they should supply you with the dbname, username and password which you would enter in the setup.

Soulfly Posted December 18, 2003 Author Share Posted December 18, 2003 well ive created a database in cpanel, created a user with all permissions and now the error is: Access denied for user: '[email protected]' (Using password: YES) Database Server: i put the hosting server xx.server.com Username: user name that ive created for database Password: passord of database Database Name: name ive created what can be wrong pleaseeeeeeeee?????? NOTE (from webhosting at this moment): Cgi/Perl scripts and FrontPage will not work in Preview mode. They only work if the domain is fully pointed and propagated to our servers. can it be from this?? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
