I am currently installing MyBB on a website, however am consistently receiving a database configuration error:
... 'such and such' obviously being the db with a proper name.
I have created the database, and a user with full access privileges to this db. In desperation, I have read up and numerous MyBB installation tutorials only to confirm that I am doing everything right (as far as I know).
While I may be creating a db and user, does this require any further work within the MyPHPAdmin panel? As far as the tutorials show, it should be a very simple process: make a db, make a user, grant full access, voila.
My hosting provider uses a Siteworx control panel, if this has any bearing.
Any insight on how to rectify this matter would be greatly appreciated.
* Could not connect to the database server at 'localhost' with the supplied username and password. Are you sure the hostname and user details are correct?
* Could not select the database 'such and such'. Are you sure it exists and the specified username and password have access to it?
