Hi all..

I've got a blank page during installation when trying to connect the MySql v4.0 database.

I've delete the code in ./inc/db_mysql.php
this code
		if($success && $this->db_encoding)
		{
			$this->query("SET NAMES '{$this->db_encoding}'");
			if($write_success && count($this->connections) > 1)
			{
				$this->write_query("SET NAMES '{$this->db_encoding}'");
			}
		}
		return $success;
and also this
		return " CHARACTER SET {$this->db_encoding} COLLATE {$collation}";
but its still blank..

and its say this "Congratulations, you meet the requirements to run MyBB."
bump..bump..
I advise you find a host with MySQL 5 installed. The documentation on the wiki for MySQL 4 has been there for years, and I'm pretty sure you'll run in to more issues along the way with MySQL 4. It's outdated and I doubt there's any MyBB 1.6 forums out there using it.
umm..
the problem is i also run a gameserver which using mysql4 at the same server with forum server..
so i can't use 2 mysql in one dedicated server..
