Just installed MySql on my local machinf ro playing around with UBB Threads. It APPEARS to have installed but when I start winsqlmyadmin I cannot create or drop tables.
I can create tables from the command line using create command.
And...when I try to verify the UBB Threads install it bombs out at the database setting.
Step 3
Here we are checking your database connectivity and permissions. If any of these checks fail you will need to correct the errors in order to proceed.
Connecting to server FAILED
Connecting to database FAILED
One or more of the above checks failed. Click the button below to return to the previous screen to verify your settings.
UBB.threads Installation Wizard
Step 2
This next step consists of gathering the database information. You will need to know the server the mysql engine is running on, the database name, the username, and the password if necessary.
Database server localhost
Database name ubbthreads
Database user xxxxxxxxxx
Database password xxxxxxxxx
Tablename prefix (no spaces)
Any ideas or suggestions
