Hi i need help with installing mybb its been so long i cant remember lol i am using 1and1 for the hosting and not to sure how to set it up again like where would info i need will be?

Error

There seems to be one or more errors with the database configuration information that you supplied:

    Could not connect to the database server at 'db510729670' with the supplied username and password. Are you sure the hostname and user details are correct?

Once the above are corrected, continue with the installation.

Did you get this resolved ?

You might have to CREATE the DataBase yourself on 1and1, or, ask their support for the info if they created it for you:

DATABASE NAME
HOSTNAME
DATABASE PASSWORD

That's what you will need to install MyBB

Yes thank you i phoned 1and1 and they managed to talk me through it.
