cpg1.4.5 install sending wrong username to mysql ?

[josswern]

well, I saw many similar probs mentioned here, but none of them seems to directly apply here:
I'm trying to install cpg1.4.5 and get this:

Code Select Expand

Could not create a mySQL connection, please check the SQL values entered

MySQL error was : Access denied for user: 'josswern@myhost.myisp.de' (Using password: YES)

- problem seems to be that 'josswern@myhost.myisp.de' is beeing sent to the mysql host (which is _not_ localhost in my case) instead of just 'josswern', which I filled in the form (and which is approved to work together with specified password).
so, is there any way to tell cpg to just send the plain username as typed, instead of automatically appending the hostname ?

Coppermine doesn't append the hostname - that's just the way MySQL displays the error message. It displays the host name you are attempting to connect from.

ok, thanks - I just realized I had used a wrong username (the one I use on my local testserver), corrected that and all is ok.
sorry for the noise  :'(
