Have you created a table for the database to be installed to?

Now that could actually be my problem....Boy am I stupid. (actually dont answer that) lol...

Thanks Slice, Its the one thing I havent done to be honest, I just tend to get annoyed quickly at error messages. Rather than sit and think...

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction :drink: :thumbs:

Some install files make the DB tables for you. Some you have to do some stuff in there first, and then it makes the rest. Looks like you might have edited a file, with you username and password wrong. I know I have had problems getting the right info in the right place, when editing my paths to the DB and all. Just messing around with it, and then I was able to connect, and install my scripts. :cool:

:thumbs: Ok. Ive manged to upload and get everything running. But 1 last problem, I cant log in, everytime i set up a user account, it tells me Incorrect user details.

Do I need to edit something else to create and admin account?

Or am I just plain stupid....lol (don't need to answer that)

Usually an admin account is created when you install the software to the site.

ok, Do the user details get stored in any particular place where I could view them?

Check the database. The password is probably encrypted in the database, but you may be able to find the username.
