I have tried to install oscomerce and for some reason I cant. I keep getting a error when I put my host name in. When I hit submit it says (Host 'www.ehostsource.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server

) and for some reason when I put localhost in it says this: "Access denied for user: 'webmaster@localhost' (Using password: YES)"

It doesn't sound like you've got the right user name and certainly not the right password for the database. Check your hosting control panel for the correct ones. Somewhere in there you'll find a mySQL section.

It means that you've gotten basically nowhere.

 

If /catalog takes you to install it means that no database server name was saved in the /includes/configure.php file.

 

from application_top.php

if (strlen(DB_SERVER) < 1) {
if (is_dir('install')) {
header('Location: install/index.php');

 

So... :mellow:

 

Did you set the permissions on includes/configure.php to 777 (rrr www eee)?

 

You might just as well do a manual install. Do you have phpMyAdmin and know how to use it?

 

Is this a web based install?

I got the same problem while using nusphere phped.

 

After a short search, I realized that the settings for db-connection was overwritten with the one from my local developing environment.

 

Just change in both of the configure.php (admin/includes and catalog/includes)

 

following lines

 

define('DB_SERVER', 'my-server-name.com'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'mydbrootname');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '- see field description ;) - ');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'my-db');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persisstent connections?
