i put in the FQDN instead of 'localhost'
and made sure the case of the database name was correct.

This got me through Smile

the localhost of the server was pointing to 127.0.0.1 only.

ok, it started up. now to setup up the forums and users ...
Glad you got it working chips.

That's normal and you should shut off requests to mysql outside localhost for security.

Really? then the installation instructions should be changed.
127.0.0.1 IS localhost

So, the mySQL is not configured correctly.
Great Sad
