Installation failing at step 3

The installation of CMSMS is failing at step 3.

I am getting this error
Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'devilslayer@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /home/healthy1/public_html/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 339
Connection failed
I access mysql through Cpanel and WHM hosting panel

On step 2 when it asks for Admin Account information, i take it that that means Admin details for the CMS, not the login for the website hosting?

I can add Mysql databases, users etc in my whm hosting panel and i have all privileges. I cannot understand why i get the error code.

I wanted to install this CMS as it allows you to format the site using CSS instead of tables.

I logged in to my site with ws_ftp and i changed the permissions on all files that came up with errors "access denied".

However i now have this error on my homepage
Warning: main(/home/healthy1/public_html/lib/misc.functions.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/healthy1/public_html/include.php on line 37

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/home/healthy1/public_html/lib/misc.functions.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/healthy1/public_html/include.php on line 37

Sounds like your FTP client is creating weird permissions on EVERY file...

Everything file in lib should be at least 644.

Wishy,

Thanks for your help, but i think you are right. I have just tried to install mambo 4.5 on another site on my reseller account and when it got past step 3 i got permission denied errors again.

I have contacted to guy who sold me the hosting to see why this is happening

Well, that makes me feel a little better.  I really was out of ideas on what could be the problem...

Just to let you know, I had the same difficulty, I checked my database information and sure enough I'd entered some of the details incorrectly. So obvious you might want to try it...

I think for 0.10.1, I'm going to add a check to the installer to make sure it can actually connect before moving on the next step.  It seems to be a common issue...

I got the same error... After a little digging into install.php, I uncommented the $db->debug = true; line and found out that the actual DB error message is :

"Missing extension for mysql"

Does anyone know what this means?
