OK well I've looked all over the boards and no solution, although its a recurring problem
I try installing coppermine all my information is correct but i keep getting the errors
Could not create a mySQL connection, please check the SQL values entered
MySQL error was : Access denied for user: 'nikki@localhost' (Using password: YES)
I've been trying to solve this problem for days now so I'd appreciate any help
URL: http://slashprettyheart.org/ohmeurtre
MySQL Host: localhost
MySQL Database Name: ohmeurtre
MySQL Username: nikki
MySQL Password: xxxxxxxx
MySQL table prefix: slash_
You would need to ask your webhost for the correct settings since we aren't going to know.
correct settings for what? I'm the one that created the db and what not so I'm pretty sure I know what it is and what not.

Did you add the user to the database?
yup
Have you tried a simple connection test? I posted the php code for such a test here:

ok well i did the connection test...Everything worked out perfectly
I've had a problem with new installs of mysql forcing the new password encyrption which fouls up many applications such as coppermine.

I suspect that your issue is slightly different, but it wouldn't hurt to verify.
ill try this of course, but I've never had ANY problems like this before, I've used coppermine before (that was at least 6 months ago) so I wasnt expecting any problems but yeah I was wrong apparently
still not working. any other ideas? by the way thanks to everyone that tried to help
