ive had problems with my database for ages, cant get amessage board working nor this gallery
anyway i got my host to reset the database and started again
ive installed phpmyadmin into one folder
and created a new blank database in the 'databases' list. is that right?
anyway come to install this and i get
Could not create a mySQL connection, please check the SQL values entered
MySQL error was : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (46)
I do have a folder in my webhosting called /tmp/ etc but the folder is empty - i deleted my site and started again a month ago so maybe it is something to do with that? but all these installations are after i got my new database up ...
any suggestions?
ask your host about your local mysql server Host
what did you enter for MySQL Host?
localhost as my hostname
in phpmyadmin it has
yroot as the main user with all privilages etc and has hostname as localhost and i chose the password
thats in phpmyadmin etc
Mysql error said that it can't conncet to that server (this is not user or permission issue, this is server issue)!
can you post a link to your installation page?
http://www.krazy4kym.com/Gallery/install.php
thats the install page
:)
you are using yahoo hosting
so please check this:

I think that you should use mysql instead of localhost
yey that worked thank you
