Connection failure Installing the DB

Help with getting the CMS CORE package up and running. This does not include 3rd party modules, PHP scripts, anything downloaded via module manager or from any external source.

Hello Wishy and Frouck,

I am also runnig the lastest version of mac OS X as well!

The error you are getting Frouck I believe is that your CHMOD permissions are not setup correctly (Hey Wishy... I figured out today how to adjust on my server... are you proud of me?!).

However, when I made this adjustment, I do now get the following error:

Fatal error: You must have the mysqli extension installed. in /home/redturbo/public_html/cmsmadesimple5/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysqli.inc.php on line 52[/i]

I was so close! So... I am thinking I need the cmsMS version for Mac OS X. I am checking now.

Thanks Guys!

Mike

redturbo, I am proud. :)

The problem is that PHP has to be compiled from source with the mysqli extension in order to use the 4.1 specific code. Try using the regular 4.0 mysql driver instead when installing. since most downloaded binary versions of php aren't compiling in the mysqli extension yet (even though they should, now that 4.1 is considered a production release).

Does that make any sense? Did I mention is was 5.20 am? :)

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in G:\xampp\xampp\htdocs\cms\adodb\drivers\adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 338
Connection failed

The same error each version from beginning.

Download adodb directly and overwrite the version delivered with the download and it works.
