MySQL problems

[avrillavignehq]

Hey,
I'm not exactly the most experienced person with MySQL but I've used it before. When I go to install.php and fill in the information and click "Let's Go", it gives me this message:

• • • ERROR • • • 
The following errors were encountered and need to be corrected first:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mySQL could not locate a database called 'avrilhq_gallery' please check the value entered for this

I did create that database and allowed access to it...I don't understand why it can't access it

sometimes when you create databases in a control panel it prepends some information to the database name thats designed to keep all users of the mysql server's databases in a logical manner.

If thats the case, then you need to use the WHOLE database name that your control panel generated not just the short name you typed in.
