CMS Made Simple Forums

After installing CMSms and play a litle with it. I decide to probe installing the Siple Chat module. It fails when i try to run but keep installed. After closing cmsms and try to run again it put the following error:

Fatal error: Attempt to connect to database cms on berni@localhost failed in C:\xampp\htdocs\cms\lib\adodb.functions.php on line 85.


How can i resolve this.

Please help

Berni

The error already gives a hint: 'connect to database cms on berni@localhost failed'

In config.php you'll find the connection to the database, either the hostname, username, password, database name or a combination of these is/are not set correct.

If you are still using your local xampp installation it should read:

$config['dbms'] = 'mysql';
$config['db_hostname'] = 'localhost';
$config['db_username'] = 'root';
$config['db_password'] = '';
$config['db_name'] = 'name of your database';
